Simple Attribution

Description

Simple Attribution is just that… simple! It adds a meta box on post pages
which allows bloggers to specify the name and URL of the site a sourced article
originated from. Assuming both these fields are filled out, it appends the
attribution link to the bottom of the post.

Simple Attribution allows links to be generated in both text and image form,
allowing you to customize it to the feel of your website. Natively, it includes
5 icons which can be used to identify the attribution link instead of the
standard caption (which is editable through the options panel), and custom
icons can be used as well.

Don’t like where we put the link? You have the option to disable
auto-attribution and put the link wherever you want it to display simply by
adding <?php echo display_attribution(); ?> to your template!

Didn’t work on standard wordpress 5.8

Mohammad Etemaddar October 8, 2021

I used it on newly installed wordpress 5.8 with default theme. The problem is that, it didn’t save the attribution title and url and also didn’t show the links at bottom of the post. I wish it work on new version. If it has git page, I can resolve it. Thanks.

Simple, Clean, Easy to Customise

Fraser Martin February 8, 2018

Great little plugin. Can make it look however you want. Easy to fit in with theme. Would love to see the addition of rel=”nofollow” option. I have added this via the simple_attribution_attribution filter, but for non coders this would be great addition.

Works beautifully

Works great for a quick and easy way to add attribution into posts without having to hand-edit and hand-place everything. Easily stylable too.
