Advanced Settings
This section covers additional configuration options for templates to give you more precise control over redirects and links.
URL Generation Settings
URL Length
You can define the minimum and maximum length of generated URLs:
Example with 5–7 characters:
domain.com/aB2cD
domain.com/12AbCdE
domain.com/qWe3tY
Optimal length: 5–7 characters. This provides uniqueness while keeping URLs compact.
Characters in URLs
Choose which character types to include in the URLs:
-
Lowercase letters (a–z) Example: domain.com/abcdef Recommended for natural appearance
-
Uppercase letters (A–Z) Example: domain.com/ABCDEF Increases variation
-
Digits (0–9) Example: domain.com/123456 Makes links appear more neutral
With all types enabled: domain.com/aB2cD4 domain.com/12AbCd domain.com/zX9yW5
