- bit.ly URL shortening requires the login name and API key for a bit.ly account.
- Register for an account or set up your API key here:
- http://bit.ly/a/your_api_key
- Administrators can configure a login and API key to use through the admin panels
- on the site; these credentials will then be used for all users.
- (In the future, options will be added for individual users to override the keys
- with their own login for URLs they post.)
- If the login and API key are left empty in the admin panel, then bit.ly will be
- disabled and hidden from the list of available URL shorteners unless a global
- default was provided in the plugin configuration.
- To enable bit.ly with no default credentials, simply slip into your config.php:
- addPlugin('BitlyUrl');
- To provide default credentials, add them as parameters:
- addPlugin('BitlyUrl', array(
- 'login' => 'myname',
- 'apiKey' => '############################'
- ));
- These settings will not be individually exposed to the admin panels, but the
- panel will indicate whether or not the global default settings are available;
- this makes it suitable as a global default for multi-site hosting, where admins
- on individual sites can change to use their own settings.
- If you're using a bit.ly pro account with a custom domain etc, it should all
- "just work" as long as you use the correct login name and API key for your
- account.
