Public Preview URL Manager

外掛說明

Public Preview URL Manager solves a classic WordPress challenge: letting external stakeholders, clients, or editors review content before it goes live, without forcing them to create a WordPress account.

Engineered with universal compatibility for all primary page builders and block frameworks—including Divi, Elementor, Gutenberg, Bricks, and Beaver Builder—this plugin elevates rendering capabilities seamlessly at the query layer. This guarantees your reviewers see the exact page layout, custom canvas layouts, sections, and modules exactly as they will appear after formal publication, regardless of their login status.

Core Features

  • Secure Cryptographic Tokens: Links are secured using time-sensitive hashes combined with unique security salts.
  • Universal Page Builder Support: Native abstraction layer built to eliminate unauthenticated template fallback errors and blank-page canvas bugs across all builders.
  • Modern Switch Toggle UX: A native, beautiful settings wrapper using modern CSS toggles to manage link expiration.
  • Never Expire Mode: Turn on an absolute “Never Expire” mode to keep links active until publication.
  • Auto-Redirect Lifecycles: When a draft transitions to Published, Private, or Password-Protected, external preview links run an instant structural 301 Moved Permanently redirect directly to the formal live permalink.
  • Custom Post Type (CPT) Ready: Automatically supports all public custom post types like Services, Products, Portfolios, or Case Studies.
  • No Database Bloat: Contains robust cleanup uninstallation loops that scrub choices, custom options, and variables cleanly if uninstalled.

常見問題集

Does this work with Custom Post Types and Page Builders?

Yes! It hooks dynamically into all post formats flagged with 'public' => true and supports all structural layouts generated by builders like Divi, Elementor, and Bricks.

What happens when a post gets published?

The token system shuts off, and any user clicking the old sharing link will be seamlessly redirected with a 301 response straight to your public live page layout.

Is it safe from Search Engine indexers?

Absolutely. All public preview queries force an explicit X-Robots-Tag: noindex, nofollow header to prevent Google or other web crawlers from indexing unreleased content.

Nice plugin! I used it for the first time, and it worked perfectly. It’s much more user-friendly than other similar plugins I’ve tried. The interface is simple, easy to use, and everything functions as expected. Great job, bro! Keep up the excellent work!
