## Description

If you’ve ever written a post using the ‘link’ post format, you know that the experience
leaves a little something to be desired in most themes.

The sole purpose of this plugin is to add a little magic to how your users interact
with these link posts by simply redirecting to the given URL when somebody visits
your post. That’s it.

The redirect is only triggered on published and scheduled posts of any type where
the post format is set as ‘link’.

## Installation

 1. Visit the Plugins > Add New screen in your WordPress admin, and search for “Redirect
    Link Format”.
 2. Click “Install Now”, and when that’s finished, click “Activate”.
