hello, grats on the plugin if you ever make this enhancement, can you add this simple api too? http://gempixel.com/doc/premium-url-shortener-api-guide/

this is a URL Shortener script that works very well and anyone can install on his domain

thank you

Hi there! :smile: Glad you like the plugin. :+1:

I will sure look into gempixel, when I get there. Right now, I'm refactoring my initial mess and then a simpler one-click solution (like copying a repo URL here on GitHub) is scheduled for 0.2.0. Planning to add third-party API support in 0.3.0.

Unfortunately Germany just got hit by a massive warm front (20° and up :tada: ), so I can't make any promises before next week. :smile:

I'm afraid this will take a bit longer. Decided to give this a proper API, so everyone can write their own plugin/add-in to extend SmoothShorts with any shortener service. But I'll make gempixel one of the examples. :smiley:
