when i deactivate and delete this plugin will it simply delete all associated data with the plugin?

Just downloaded version 1.1.0 twice. Deleted previous install in between. It successfully installed both times. After clicking on ‘Activate’, error displayed:
“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home2/artofthe/public_html/pulpit/wp-content/plugins/bring-back-the-get-shortlink-button/bring-back-the-get-shortlink-button.php on line 17″

Displaying the php file in Dreamweaver:
“There is a syntax error on line 17.”

Line 17–20 code reads:
add_filter( ‘get_shortlink’, function ( $shortlink ) {

return $shortlink;
} );

Hi Thorsten,

TQ for providing this plug-in.
However I encountered the above error when using it.
To reproduce the problem, create a new page with any title.
Once the default permalink is generated by WordPress, click ‘Get Shortlink’ button.
The short url generated is https://domain.com/?p=xxx.
The correct one should be https://domain.com/?page_id=xxx.
Any suggestion how to fix it?

Rgds,
Ong

This plugin was working great, doing exactly what it was supposed to do.

Today it stopped working. I don’t know why. I deactivated all my plugins except for this one and it still did not show up.

Any ideas? Is it just me?

The get Shortlink button works again in all my custom post types, pages, old posts, but does not work for blog posts created since upgrading to WordPress 4.4. New custom post type posts work fine, just the WordPress blog posts don’t.
