Tips and tricks

Naming slugs

  • Consistent scheme across your orgq1-2026, q2-2026, q3-2026 beats q1, 2q-report, q3-final.
  • Short word + datereport-spring26, tour-prague, pricing-november.
  • Avoid internal abbreviationsidc-471 means nothing to anyone.

Custom short links in presentations

Q-Live + Short URL = professional setup:

  • In Q-Live set a custom event code (e.g. CONF26).
  • Create a Short URL: pmgclub.com/feedx/conf26https://pmgclub.com/q/CONF26.
  • Share via Short URL — shorter, brand-friendly.

For clients / projects

  • One main slug = gateway to the project: pmgclub.com/feedx/projectX → root URL.
  • Then change the target as needed (from presentation to video, to pricing) without changing the shared link.
  • Unfortunately the target can't currently be edited via UI after creation (we're working on it).

QR codes

The tools section currently doesn't auto-generate QR codes. For a QR to a short link we recommend:

  1. Get a QR code generator (e.g. qr-code-generator.com or Google Charts API).
  2. Paste the full URL pmgclub.com/feedx/{slug}.
  3. Download PNG / SVG.

(We plan to integrate QR directly into Short URL detail.)

What Short URL is not for

  • Permanent tracking infrastructure for thousands of links — limits (10/20/50) are for normal use.
  • Affiliate masking with parameters — UTM isn't added in the UI yet, you have to put it in the target URL.
  • A/B testing — Short URL always leads to one target. Use an external tool for A/B tests.

Security

  • We don't store access credentials for short links — anyone with the URL can click it.
  • For sensitive sharing use random slugs (via ) — they can't be guessed.
  • For highly sensitive materials don't use Short URL — does your target have auth?

Troubleshooting

If a link doesn't work:

IssueLikely cause
Click → 404Link is disabled (OFF) or expired.
Click → target page 404Target URL no longer exists (page deleted). Create a new link.
Click → redirect loopTarget URL also leads back to the Short URL → conflict. Change the target.
