WordPress plugin
WP Links PRO
Configure internal and external links in rendered posts, pages, comments, widgets, and other content. Choose whether they open in a new window or tab, set follow or nofollow behavior, and add noopener, noreferrer, ugc (User Generated Content), or sponsored to the rel attribute. You can also set link titles and CSS classes. FontAwesome and Dashicons are available for icons that identify links according to your settings.
Choose how link groups behave
Configure internal and external links in rendered posts, pages, comments, widgets, and other content. Choose whether they open in a new window or tab, set follow or nofollow behavior, and add noopener, noreferrer, ugc (User Generated Content), or sponsored to the rel attribute. You can also set link titles and CSS classes. FontAwesome and Dashicons are available for icons that identify links according to your settings.
WP Links PRO filters rendered output as it is displayed. The content stored in the database stays unchanged, including when you deactivate the extension.
Apply settings to selected content
Link Rules let you select various handling for specific link groups. A template tag can apply extension settings to particular content. The data-wpel-link attribute can mark a link as external, internal, or exclude. You can set the attribute yourself to influence how a link is handled; the value ignore completely excludes it from processing.
Review link destinations and external clicks
The Link Scanner reports whether links are broken or redirected, along with each link's target, rel attribute, and the page containing it. Scan a complete page or focus on posts, comments, or widgets.
Exit Confirmation shows visitors a confirmation step when they click an external link, giving them a chance to acknowledge that they are leaving the current site.
Configure network and custom behavior
Network settings support WPMU installations. Built-in actions and filters let developers tailor implementation to website needs, while administrators can set defaults for links and groups.
Install and configure
Install and activate WP Links PRO in WordPress, then open its administration page. Configure internal and external link behavior, including window or tab settings, rel values, icons, and other attributes. Add Link Rules or template tags for more specific handling.
After you save the settings, the plugin filters rendered output. Use the Link Scanner to review destinations, status, and attributes, then check representative posts, comments, and widgets to confirm the rules work as intended.
