To achieve this recipe, simply open your functions.php file and paste the following code:
function getTinyUrl($url) {
$tinyurl = file_get_contents("http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php?url=".$url);
return $tinyurl;
}
On your single.php file, paste the following within the loop:
<?php $turl = getTinyUrl(get_permalink($post->ID)); echo 'Tiny Url for this post: <a href="'.$turl.'">'.$turl.'</a>' ?>
Great, isn't it? Have a good week end everyone!
