With our new WordPress plug-in you can automatically create Bitly links for new posts and have those short links pushed to your pre-existing social sharing tools. Additionally, you can show a Bitly sidebar widget that displays your most popular or most recent bitmarks OR displays the top results from the bitly universe for a search term of your choosing.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin uses the Bitly API (http:\/\/dev.bitly.com) all links are stored in WordPress and with Bitly.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Install the plugin either via the WordPress.org plugin directory, or by uploading the files to your server.<\/li>\n
  2. After activating the plugin, you will need to visit the plugin's settings page to finish the setup for link shortening.<\/li>\n
  3. If you want to use the sidebar widget, you should see a 'Bitly Bitmarks' under your Available Widgets (under your WP Appearance settings) which you can drag into the main sidebar<\/li>\n
  4. That's it. You're ready to go!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n
    What sharing tools does this work with?<\/dt>\n

    We have tested it on the following sharing tools:\nWordpress Jetpack, \nShareThis, \nFacebook (official facebook plugin), \nReally simple Facebook Twitter Share<\/p>\n\n

    We also tested it on the following themes:\nTwenty Twelve, \nTwenty Eleven, \nAnnotum Base, \nButterCream, \nCustom Community, \nEsquire, \nMontezuma, \nPatchwork, \nPinboard, \nPresswork, \nResponsive, \nSpun<\/p><\/dd>\n

    How does the plugin handle previously created posts?<\/dt>\n

    Posts that were created prior to installing the plugin will only get a bitly short link when someone actually visits the old post. This will result in old posts showing up in your public bitly bitmark stream (https:\/\/bitly.com\/u\/BITLYUSERNAME) unless you have set your default bitmark privacy settings to \"Private\" at https:\/\/bitly.com\/a\/settings\/saving<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
