# New Plugin: Numeric Shortlinks

[![Numeric Shortlinks plugin for WordPress](https://kaspars.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/numeric-shortlinks-wordpress-plugin.png?strip=all&quality=90&resize=500,208)](https://github.com/kasparsd/numeric-shortlinks)

**Update:** I have added support for alpha-numeric shortlinks. See the [plugin docs](https://github.com/kasparsd/numeric-shortlinks) for how to enable that.

[Numeric Shortlinks](https://github.com/kasparsd/numeric-shortlinks) is a WordPress plugin that enables shortened URLs out of post IDs. It is a very simple plugin (only 28 lines) that hooks into the pre\_get\_shortlink filter and doesn’t have any configuration options.
