Hi there,
That page you’ve linked to has a shortened URL that is working. My plugin uses the built in URL shortener for WordPress, and works alongside other plugins to interface with bit.ly or yourls.
Here’s a longer explanation of that: https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-click-to-tweet/#how%20does%20the%20url%20shortener%20functionality%20work%3F
Let me know if I can clarify further.

Hi,
I have rechecked in chrome, firefox and edge browsers and found url shortener not working. I don’t understand how you are getting a shortened url while checking.

Url shortener is checked in setup. Please advise.
This problem is not solved. But you have marked it as resolved.
Hi there, sorry for the lack of clarity there. The URL you are listing here is a short URL: https://simplylifetips.com/?p=6110
The long version of that URL is https://simplylifetips.com/5-foods-to-increase-weight-in-toddlers/
My plugin will send to one of those URLs or the other. If you want to shorten with a third-party shortener like bit.ly, you need to use a plugin for that. If you are using a third-party shortener plugin, and it’s not working, please let me know which plugin you are using.
Let me know if that clears things up.

But it was showing earlier like a bit.ly or t.co url on click to tweet. not like this permalink
I am not using any url shorener plugin. I removed Jetpack, is that the problem?
Yes, Jetpack includes a URL shortener option, I believe it’s wp.me that it uses.
You’ll need to install another URL shortener plugin like this one to get URL shortener functionality back: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-bitly/
Thanks!
