    15 Have you ever had to give someone a shortened version of a URL? Maybe you're a podcaster, and you can't say "visit mydomain.com/2008/01/03/my-post-with-a-long-url/ for more info." Wouldn't it be useful if you could just say "go to mydomain.com/go/mycoolpost/ ?" Sure, you *could* use a service like tinyurl.com, but that's still not too great if you need the URL for a podcast. It's still awkward to read-out "tinyurl.com/27asr9," isn't it? It's less professional too. GoCodes let's you create shortcut URLs to anywhere on the internet, right from your Wordpress Admin. The plugin is also useful for masking affiliate program URLs.

    3259= How do I add a redirect? =
    33 To manage your redirects, open your Wordpress admin, and go to the Manage -> GoCodes menu. From there you can remove redirects by clicking on the "Delete" button next to their entries, and you can add new ones using the form on the page. The "Key" field is where you enter the redirection string (e.g. "orange" in yourdomain.com/go/orange/). The URL field is where you enter the URL that users will be redirected to ("http://" is required). Note that the Key can only contain alphanumeric characters.
