A simple, no-fuss plugin to display and copy the default WordPress short link for any post, page, or custom post type.

== Description ==

Keep It Simple! The "KISS short links" plugin embraces this philosophy by doing one thing perfectly: it makes it effortless to access the default WordPress short link (/?p=ID).

In the post editor, right below the main permalink, this plugin displays the short link along with a clean, one-click copy icon. This saves you the hassle of publishing a post and manually constructing the URL just to get the short link. It's perfect for when you need a stable, clean URL that will never change, even if the post's slug does.

Features:

• Displays the post's short link (yourdomain.com/?p=123) in the editor.
• Works for all post types (posts, pages, and CPTs).
• Features a single-click clipboard icon to copy the link instantly.
• Extremely lightweight and built with WordPress best practices.
• No settings page, no branding, no fluff—it just works.

== Installation ==

1. From your WordPress dashboard (easiest way):

   • Navigate to 'Plugins' > 'Add New'.
   • Click 'Upload Plugin'.
   • Choose the kiss-short-links.zip file you downloaded and click 'Install Now'.
   • Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.

2. Via FTP:

   • Unzip the kiss-short-links.zip file.
   • Upload the kiss-short-links folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory on your server.
   • Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.

Once activated, edit any post or page to see the KISS Short Link below the title and permalink.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

Does this work with the Classic Editor and the Block Editor (Gutenberg)? Yes, it works seamlessly with both editors.

What post types are supported? It supports all public post types, including regular Posts, Pages, and any Custom Post Types (CPTs) you have registered.

Does this plugin create or store new URLs? No. It simply reveals the default, built-in short link that WordPress creates for every post. It does not add any data to your database or create custom vanity slugs.

Where does the short link appear? It appears in the post editor screen, directly beneath the permalink editor that is located under the post title.
