Changes the Short URL and the Twitter Tools URL for each post on your site using a custom, shortened domain and a base-36 encode of the post ID.

== Description ==

Changes the Short URL and the Twitter Tools URL for each post on your site using a custom, shortened domain and a base-36 encode of the post ID.

== Installation ==

1. Buy a short domain

2. Upload `jb-shortener.php` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory

3. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress

4. Update the "Short URL" in Options->General

If you're running a multisite configuration, copy `sunrise.php` to the `wp-content` folder and set `define('SUNRISE', 'on');` in `wp-config.php`.
