    Is there anyway to call the Short URL in a template file? I’m looking for a function akin to <?php the_permalink() ?> but for the shortened_url. Even if it’s a shortcode that I can call with a function like, <?php echo do_shortcode('[shorturl /]'); ?> that would be extremely helpful!

    Actually, and as indicated in the plugin, you just have to call get_short_link()

    plesae also note that get_short_link() is a WP function.

    Thus, if you deactivate the plugin, the function will still works (but returns http://domain.tld/?p=45 or alike
