 * Live WP website, page with multiple third-party links to stories held.
 * Some links massively long, looking to shorten them with shortcode, same code 
   being created for different links, was expecting a different code for each link,
   cannot edit. Client does not want hyperlink from logo or such link, wants a URL
   link!
 * Problem is that at least two are exceeding the column width and bleeding to second
   column under the Twitter Feed.
 * Question – Is it possible to generate a different short code for each URL even
   though they are on the same page, it would solve problem if I could and would
   also look neat and tidy. Thanks.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcreating-multiple-sortlinks-same-page%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Apologies for the late response on this, it’s been a busy week and it’s going
   to get worse!
 * If I’m following you correctly, at present the WP Bitly plugin doesn’t provide
   an interface or option for embedding external shortlinks, and only generates 
   shortlinks for WordPress pages, posts and custom post types.
 * However. This does seem like it might be an incredibly helpful feature to add
   in the next release. I’ll make a note to update the shortcode and php function
   to allow any URL.
 * I’ll post back here and let you know once this functionality is ready for prime
   time!

 * Thanks for the update.
 * 100% right, it’s shortening external links, as some are massively long, will 
   be great if you can amend the code and I’ll be happy to be your guinea pig when
   done.
 * I agree it would a useful feature!
 * Like you, I’m mega busy at the moment, lots on, must not complain through it 
   pays the bills.
 * Look forward to your update in due course.
