# 19h47/Link πŸ”—

Initially built for the [J'veux Γͺtre bonne Blog](http://www.jveuxetrebonne.com/), __Link__ is a __WordPress__ plugin for create a custom post type and a custom category associate to __Link__.
__Link__ CPT is like the good old blogroll. Blogroll isn't supported anymore in __WordPress__, it's in source code but only for backward compatibility purpose.

This is the purpose of this plugin: bring back to life blogroll! πŸ™
