Solid link hub plugin, but rewrite conflict and JS workarounds hold it back

I’m running WP myLinks on WordPress 6.8.1 and here’s my experience:

Pros

• Styling flexibility: The plugin lets you inject custom CSS directly in its settings, so you can tweak fonts, colors, and layout without editing theme files.
• Customizable link hub base URL: You get a dedicated hub page under a base slug of your choice (e.g. /links/), where all your saved links are listed with thumbnails and descriptions—no coding required.

Cons

1. Font integration is awkward. There’s no built-in field for Google Fonts or other webfonts—you have to enqueue them via custom JS, which feels like overkill for a links plugin.
2. GTM / click tracking hacks. If you want to send click events to Google Tag Manager, you need your own JavaScript to detect button clicks and push data. A native hook or setting here would save a lot of work.
3. Rewrite-rule conflict. By default WP myLinks registers a very broad regex ([^/]+/([^/]+)/?$) that hijacks every two-segment URL on the site, causing unexpected 404s for pages, products, and custom post types. It requires a custom register_post_type_args filter to scope its CPT slug properly and avoid breaking other URLs.

Verdict
Great styling control and an easy-to-set-up link hub, but the need for “JS magic” around fonts and tracking and the critical rewrite-rule bug hold it back. Three stars until these integrations and URL handling are made more robust.
