Example return:
Options
Override the default domain name. For example, if you have a short domain that also points to your site.
add_filter( 'srsu_site_url', function(){ return 'http://pd.cm'; } );Set the API key using a filter. Useful for setting config in an mu-plugin instead of wp-config.php
add_filter( 'srsu_api_key', function(){ return 'kckRse'; } );Details
- URL keys are Hash IDs based on the ID used for the redirect custom post type.
- Hash IDs are salted, causing them to not be easily guessed.
- Redirects are checked for duplicates. If a duplicate is found, the original Hash ID is returned.
- Hash IDs have no possibility for intersections -- every ID will be unique.
- Hash IDs will be as short as possible for the given post ID and salt.
