A new menu item on the menu side of your admin console will appear called LinkGather:

Clicking on the Home link, this will navigate to the plugins homepage which supplies instructions, similar to these, on how to use the plugin.

Post Links


Click the Post Links menu to take you to the page that will reveal all of your websites published posts’ links. Note that for the purposes of these instructions, we are using our blog test site with just a few URL's in it.

You should now see a table with two columns, one for the title of your posts and another for the links of your posts. Depending on how many posts you have will depend on how long this list will be.

At the bottom of the URL's list, you should see that LinkGather has also calculated how many post links you have.

You then also have the option to download the articles in Excel style.

Page Links


The above procedure is exactly the same for Page Links, but instead of bringing back published links, it will bring back published pages instead:

JetPack URL's


The option for wp.me Links is again exactly the same method as those above, however, JetPack Links are actually built in short links created by the JetPack plugin. If you have the JetPack plugin installed, you must have the short links option also enabled for our plugin to be able to gather those URLs.

If you do not have the JetPack short links module enabled, our plugin will just pull back basic post links instead.

Hoping that you have JetPack short links enabled, clicking on our plugins wp.me Links title will bring back all those JetPack URLs that it has gathered:
