Is there a plugin to create short URLs under textpattern?

Hi!

Two days ago, I installed a program called YOURLS . This program is a url-shortener. In my website, it is located at this address:

http://www.selodigital.net/url/admin

The program was installed sucessfulli, but when I try to create a short link to a textpattern article, the new link opens up a 404 error page (page not found).

For example:

http://www.selodigital.net/url/3

well, if I can’t use the program, then is there another solution? A plugin, maybe?

Thank you!

As far a I understood the plugins introduction, URLs to TXP articles can be shortened with smd_short_url.

This may help but read the whole thread because it could indicate the problem between YOURLS and TXP too.
