Small, Efficient WordPress Plugins

O2go2 FAQ

Last Updated On : 21-Apr-2020

Is the plugin free?

Yes it is. The plugin has been created primarily as a helper plugin for Oxygen site builders. It will grow organically over time. This plugin will remain free.

How do you say the plugin name?

O..2..Go..2

The O2 is a reference to Oxygen.

It is a "Go to" plugin for Oxygen users.

And most importantly, the name rhymes like all the other wee plugins.

What support is available?

As the plugin is free then the support is necessarily limited.

We will:

  • fix bugs
  • answer questions by adding to the FAQ
  • prepare tutorials to explain how the plugin features can be used
  • maintain the plugin to keep it up to date with WordPress and Oxygen
  • deprecate features where plugins feature are superseded by those in Oxygen

Why does the plugin use shortcodes?

Several of the shortcodes are specifically designed for use in Oxygen re-usable parts.

The postmeta related shortcodes can be used to include post meta information in the post header such as the post published date, post modified date, the author link and the post edit link. The copyright shortcode is used in the Oxygen footer reusuable part which appears at the foot of each page.

The other shortcodes will be made available as Gutenberg blocks since they are largely for use directly in the page content. These include shortcodes for Wistia videos and Pastebin code inserts.

What is Amazon OneLink?

Amazon OneLink is a feature for use by Amazon affiliates. It allows you place an Amazon US link on the site but have that linked replaced automatically by a local Amazon product link based on the visitor country (assuming you have an affiliate account for that country). To do this Amazon provides a script however it loads slowly and will negatively impact the page scores on GTMetrix. The feature in the plugin ensures the Amazon script only loads on pages that have the Amazon links.
