Public Preview URL Manager
·
Generates secure, time-sensitive public preview links for drafts and scheduled posts, fully compatible with Divi and Elementor.
Public Preview URL Manager solves a classic WordPress challenge: letting external stakeholders, clients, or editors review content before it goes live, without forcing them to create a WordPress account.
Engineered with total compatibility for major page builders like Divi and Elementor, this plugin spoofs post states safely in memory right before layout generation. This guarantees your reviewers see the exact page layout, custom CSS, modules, and sections that will appear after formal publication.
