Reviews

March 29, 2019
For years I've been manually linking images hosted on Wikimedia Commons: copy + pasting the image URL, description page URL, and author attribution into blog posts. No need for that with this plugin - just paste the URL to the photo into your blog, post, and it does all of the magic!
