EagleX Button Links adds a simple, no-code way to place clickable, styled call-to-action (CTA) buttons anywhere in your posts or pages \u2014 the kind of \"Buy Now,\" \"Download,\" \"Visit Site,\" or \"Learn More\" buttons that turn a plain link into something people actually notice and click.<\/p>\n\n
Everything is managed from a meta box right on the post editor screen. Add a button name and a URL, and the plugin handles the styling, the shortcode, and \u2014 if you want it \u2014 a full site-wide report on which buttons are actually getting clicked, plus an automatic check for any that have stopped working.<\/p>\n\n
A single post doesn't have to mean a single button list. Create separate named groups \u2014 for example \"Tools I Recommend\" and \"Related Reading\" \u2014 each with its own buttons and its own shortcode ( Every button quietly counts its own clicks \u2014 no cookies, no visitor tracking, just a simple counter. A dedicated Analytics tab rolls that up into a site-wide Top 10 list, so you can see at a glance which buttons and which posts are actually driving action.<\/p>\n\n Links break. Products get discontinued, affiliate programs change their URLs, pages get moved. EagleX Button Links checks every button URL on your site \u2014 daily in the background, or on demand with one click \u2014 and lists anything that's dead or erroring, right down to the post and group it's on. Fix the URL (or wait for the destination to come back online) and the entry clears itself automatically.<\/p>\n\n EagleX Button Links does not collect any personal data, and does not set cookies.<\/p>\n\n Click counting<\/strong>: when a visitor clicks a button, the plugin records an anonymous +1 to that button's counter, stored in your own site's database. No IP address, cookie, browser fingerprint, or any other visitor-identifying information is collected or stored.<\/p>\n\n Broken Link Checker<\/strong>: to check whether a button's destination is reachable, the plugin makes an outbound HTTP request from your server to that specific URL \u2014 the same URL you configured as a button. This happens for links you added yourself; no visitor data, and no data about any other page on your site, is ever sent anywhere. These checks run when you click \"Check Links Now,\" once daily in the background, and briefly after you save a post that has button links enabled.<\/p>\n\n No data is ever sent to the plugin author or any third party.<\/p>\n\n Deliberately not in this release, to keep the plugin focused and stable \u2014 being considered based on user feedback:<\/p>\n\n Adding clickable, styled call-to-action buttons \u2014 for affiliate links, downloads, \"Buy Now\" links, related-post recommendations, or any button you'd otherwise have to hand-code \u2014 without touching CSS or HTML.<\/p><\/dd>\n The meta box is on Posts by default. Turn on \"Also show the meta box and shortcode support on Pages\" on the Design Settings tab under Settings \u2192 EagleX Button.<\/p><\/dd>\n The shortcode renders anywhere WordPress processes shortcodes \u2014 the block editor's Shortcode block, the Classic Editor, widgets, and most page builders that support standard WordPress shortcodes. Styling uses your theme's fonts and adapts to any screen size.<\/p><\/dd>\n[exbl_buttons group=\"1\"]<\/code>, [exbl_buttons group=\"2\"]<\/code>), or use [exbl_buttons group=\"all\"]<\/code> to show every group at once, each under its own heading.<\/p>\n\nBuilt-in click analytics<\/h4>\n\n
