First of all, thank you all so much for your work developing Linker. I love how elegant and simple it is, as well as the GPL license. I'm currently testing it for possibly widespread use, and in the process I wanted to share some thoughts about (hopefully) simple features I'd love to see. Please forgive me if this contribution is redundant in any way, or if any of these are already addressed. I've tried to explore the docs, but as a non-developer, my capacities have limits. There are in order of priority, for me at least:

  • "Random" button - A button on the Add New page that automatically generates, say, a 4-character string in the Title field with letters, caps, and numbers. That way the user doesn't need to come up with an original URI every time.
  • Bookmarklet - A quick link that can be added to a browser that would automatically take the user to the Add New page with the current URL loaded in. The Pretty Link plugin offers this.
  • Change "go" - I see in your Readme that it's possible to change the "/go/" prefix, but I confess I don't understand where the "linker_prefix_slug filter" is located. Is this something that could be changeable from within the WP wysiwyg backend? I suspect this is something many users would want to change. Also, is it possible to have no prefix at all? Pretty Link, for instance, doesn't require one.
  • Tags - Make it possible to add tags to Linker links so they can be categorized and organized.

I hope these suggestions are helpful. Please know I offer them in the spirit of appreciation for your hard work on this project!
