### 󠀁[Reliable plugin but not maintained, broken in 4.5.1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/reliable-plugin-but-not-maintained-broken-in-451/)󠁿

 [Justin W. Wheeler](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jflory7/) September 3, 2016

The latest version of WordPress with this plugin breaks writing new posts and pages.
I’ve used this plugin since I started using WordPress and always depended on it,
but now I have had to deactivate the plugin. Would like to use it again if the issue
was fixed.

 [VYSUAL](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vysual/) February 7, 2017

Plugin totally outdated, generating bad bitmarks, ruining Yoast SEO Plugin job, 
not intuitive, etc… The service of Bit.Ly is still very useful. But I guess that
it’d be simpler for me to create manually bitmarks and sharing them on the social
networks than using bit.ly and publicize
