Expensive, wasteful, and time- consuming. **The Solution:** Reusable QR Codes creates permanent QR codes that you can update anytime without reprinting! #### How It Works 1. Create a QR Code and set a destination URL 2. Download and print/share the QR code 3. Visitors scan the code and get redirected to your destination 4. **Update the destination anytime** without reprinting the QR code! The QR code contains a permanent link to your WordPress site, which then redirects to wherever you want. Change the destination as many times as you need – the physical QR code never changes. #### Perfect For * **Museums & Galleries** – Update exhibit information without reprinting signs * **Retail Stores** – Change product details, promotions, and seasonal content * **Restaurants** – Update menus, daily specials, or seasonal offerings * **Event Organizers** – Modify schedules, speaker info, or venue details * **Real Estate** – Update property information and availability * **Education** – Link to current classroom resources and materials * **Tourism** – Keep landmark and trail information fresh #### Key Features * ✅ **Unlimited QR Codes** – Create as many as you need * ✅ **Easy Destination Management** – Simple URL field, change anytime * ✅ **High Quality Downloads** – PNG (1024×1024) and SVG formats * ✅ **Customizable Appearance** – Colors, dot styles, and sizes * ✅ **No Dependencies** – Works standalone, no external services * ✅ **Privacy Friendly** – No tracking, no external calls * ✅ **Translation Ready** – Fully internationalized * ✅ **Clean Code** – WordPress coding standards compliant #### Premium Features (Coming Soon) * 📊 **Analytics Dashboard** – Track scans, dates, and trends * 🎨 **Advanced Customization** – Logos, gradients, eye styles, templates * 📦 **Bulk Operations** – Download multiple QR codes, batch management * ⏰ **Scheduled Destinations** – Time-based URL changes * 🔒 **Password Protection** – Secure QR codes with passwords * 📅 **Expiration Dates** – Auto-expire QR codes * 🔗 **Shortcodes** – Display QR codes anywhere on your site [Learn more about Premium ](https://minuar.com/reusable-qr-codes/premium) #### Technical Details * Lightweight and performant – minimal database impact * Conditional asset loading – scripts only when needed * Secure – nonces, capability checks, input sanitization * Follows WordPress coding standards * Uses native WordPress functions (no bloat!) ### Privacy Policy This plugin does not: * Collect any personal data * Use cookies * Make external API calls * Track users * Store IP addresses The free version is completely privacy-friendly.

Go to ‘QR Codes’ in your admin menu to create your first QR code 4. Configure default settings under Settings QR Codes (optional) ## FAQ ### Do I need any external services or API keys? No! This plugin is completely self-contained and works entirely within your WordPress installation. No external dependencies, no API keys, no recurring fees for the free version. ### Can I really change where the QR code points without reprinting it? Yes! That’s the whole point. The QR code contains a permanent URL on your site ( like `yoursite.com/qr/museum-exhibit-1/`). When someone scans it, they’re instantly redirected to whatever destination URL you’ve set. Change that destination anytime in WordPress. ### How many QR codes can I create? Unlimited! Create as many as you need. ### What formats can I download? PNG (high resolution 1024x1024px) and SVG (vector, scales to any size). Both are perfect for printing. ### Will this slow down my site? No. The plugin is very lightweight and only loads assets when needed. The redirect happens instantly with minimal database queries. ### Can I use my own logo in the QR code? Not in the free version. This feature is available in the Premium version. ### Can I track how many times a QR code was scanned? Not in the free version. Analytics and scan tracking are available in the Premium version. ### Does this work with block themes? Yes! The plugin works with both classic and block themes. ### Can I display QR codes on the frontend? The free version is focused on backend management and downloads. Frontend display via shortcodes is available in the Premium version. ### What happens if I delete a QR code post? The QR code will stop working – visitors will see a 404 error. Only delete QR codes you’re sure you don’t need anymore. ### Can I export/import QR codes? Not currently. This is planned for a future version. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Reusable QR Codes” is open source software.
