CryptNote Secure Links

Description

Create messages with expiration/limited views via the CryptNote.pro API without leaving WordPress.

  • Admin form to generate share_url and token via API.
  • Option to replace all sent emails (wp_mail) with a secure link (attachments are removed).
  • Customizable placeholders in the email body: {share_url}, {token}, {max_views}, {expire_minutes}.
  • Support for optional password, expiration in minutes, and Markdown/HTML flags.
  • Configurable endpoint (default https://cryptnote.pro/api/v1) and optional X-API-Key header.

Privacy

This plugin uses the external CryptNote service to generate and host the secure link and token. When creating a link, the protected content and metadata (views, expiration, optional password) are sent to https://cryptnote.pro/api/v1. See the service’s privacy policy at https://cryptnote.pro/privacy.php?lang=en.

Installation

  1. Upload the plugin-wordpress folder to wp-content/plugins/ or compress it as .zip and upload via the Plugins panel.
  2. Activate CryptNote Secure Links.
  3. In the sidebar menu, open CryptNote and configure the base endpoint, API key (if used), and defaults.
  4. (Optional) Check “Enable secure links for all emails” to protect all wp_mail content.

FAQ

Do I need an API key?

Only if your CryptNote instance requires it. The plugin sends it in the X-API-Key header when provided.

Which endpoints are used?

POST {api_base}/create.php to generate the link. The default is https://cryptnote.pro/api/v1.

What happens to email attachments?

They are removed when email protection is active, to prevent data leakage outside the secure link.

Can I use Markdown or HTML?

Yes. Enable the desired format in the defaults or per submission. The plugin sends is_markdown=true or is_html=true.
