I’d like to announce the official release of the updated Easy Post-to-Post Links plugin (v2.0) for WordPress.

Easily create a link to another post using a simple shortcut that references the post’s id or slug; the link text is the post’s title, unless overridden.

The plugin’s official homepage is located at :
http://coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/easy-post-to-post-links.

This release debuts the admin options page for the plugin. It introduces a new, preferred syntax for post-to-post link shortcuts (e.g. [post="25"] or [post="hello-world"]) (don’t worry, the older syntax is still optionally supported). You can now also supply text to be used as the link text, overriding the default of using the referenced post’s title (e.g. [post="hello-world" text="My first post"]. The title attribute for the link is also now generated, set to the sanitized value of the referenced post’s title. A bug which prevented references by post slug from working was fixed. There are more examples and documentations. The release also brings with it full compatibility with WordPress 2.3+ and 2.5.

This update is part of coffee2code’s 14 Days of Plugins (updated plugin #15).

Comments welcome on this post for this version of the plugin. Comments will be closed once this release has been superseded by another.
