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.

Underneath the link table, you will see that LinkGather has also added up how many post links you have.

You then also have the option to download the articles in CSV design.

Page Links


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

JetPack ShortLinks


The option for wp.me Links is again exactly the same instructions as those above, however, wp.me Links are actually built in short links created by the JetPack software. 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 URL.

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

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