About Display Post Link

From the official readme · v1.0.5

Description

This plugin was designed to return the correct link to the special WordPress pages such as the homepage, blog, privacy policy, etc.
The [display-post-link] shortcode must be used in combination with a Name to display the link.
Example [display-post-link id=”privacy-policy”]

Main WordPress options names:

  • homepage
  • blog
  • privacy-policy

WooCommerce options names:

  • woocommerce-shop
  • woocommerce-terms
  • woocommerce-cart
  • woocommerce-myaccount
  • woocommerce-checkout
  • woocommerce-refund-returns

Note: WooCommerce plugin must be installed and active if you would like to use the WooCommerce options names.

It is also possible to use the numeric post/page ID instead of the name but if the post is deleted, the link will not be displayed.

Custom title
A custom_title parameter can be used to display a custom text link instead of the post/page title.
Example: [display-post-link id=”privacy-policy” custom_title=”Check it out our Privacy Policy!”]

Compatible with WPML plugin.
