Allows you to redirect to page, post or any other custom post type.

== Description ==

With this plugin you can include nice short links to your posts, pages or other custom post types etc that you can include in videos or other articles.
Example: site.com/goto/123 where 123 is the ID of the post, page.

You can construct the short links using other ways.
* site.com/goto/123
* site.com/page/123
* site.com/link/123
* site.com/post/123
* site.com/id2post/123
* site.com/id2page/123
* site.com/id2page/123?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video

If you want to redirect to posts/pages using example.com/123 (and running apache server) add this line to your .htaccess file.

RewriteRule ^/?([0-9]+)/?$ /link/$1 [QSA,L,R=302]

It will redirect and pass query parameters (if any).

We specifically didn't include 'go' because lots of people are using it for affiliate links already.
