    Hello,

    Thanks for a great plugin. I’ve added my Rebrandly API key and the plugin successfully creates shortlinks through Rebrandly.

    The problem I am having is that the links are in the form of rebrand.ly/example as opposed to custom.domain/example, where custom.domain is my branded short domain that I have set in Rebrandly.

    Is there a way to have the plugin generate the link using my branded domain?

    Thanks!

    Chris

    Hi @ccano

    TY for your question,
    I just check code again and found small issue ??
    Please update plugin to version 1.8.1 and use your custom domain with rebrandly,

    Note: you have to add Custom domain to rebrandly First! and after setup DNS A Records.

    Note: use domain without Protocol name and any slashes…
    for example: go.example.com

    It is working perfectly now, thanks again!

    i have the same issue for some reason. I’m using the latest version and added a custom domain (go.example.com).

    Any idea?

    Thanks!

    @evimyr No idea ??

    Need more information, what exactly you use,
    do you have correct settings on rebrandly? and DNS?

    All Best

    Thanks for the quick reply @reatlat , I use only “go.exmaple.com” A Class, but didn’t add “@.example.com” A class of Rebrandly. Maybe that’s the reason? I’m trying to avoid adding a general A class that points to Rebrandly.

    @evimyr you know… I have no idea what did you mean,
    what is it the “A class“?

    In your case, you have set up plugin to use rebrandly API
    1. type the domain which you would like to use go.exmaple.com
    2. setup Rebrandly, add branded domain
    3. Add A record to your DNS records like A go 52.72.49.79

    after you done your settings,
    you also can check the rebrandly workspace to be sure you new custom domain included to your workspace,
    y wooalya! all should works ok

    That’s exactly what I did @reatlat but for some reason it doesn’t work, although on Rebrandly website it does generates a custom domain link.

    @reatlat Sorry, for some reason the last message didn’t get through. After resetting the configuration everything worked out fine! Thank you for your time and effort!
