Enables you to give a link to anonymous users for public preview of a post before it is published.
== Description ==
Enables you to give a link to anonymous users for public preview of a post (or any other public post type) before it is published.
Have you ever been writing a post with the help of someone who does not have access to your blog and needed to give them the ability to preview it before publishing? This plugin takes care of that by generating an URL with an expiring nonce that can be given out for public preview.
**Sounds pretty good? Install now!**
*Previously this plugin was maintained by [Matt Martz](http://profiles.wordpress.org/sivel/) and was an idea of [Jonathan Dingman](http://profiles.wordpress.org/jdingman/).*
= Feedback =
If you want, you can drop me a line @[ocean90](http://twitter.com/ocean90) on Twitter or @[Dominik Schilling](https://plus.google.com/101675293278434581718/) on Google+.

= 2.0 =
New plugin maintainer, supports now all public post types, saves preview status via an AJAX request, ready for translation, requires at least WordPress 3.3.

* To disable a preview just uncheck the box.
== Frequently Asked Questions ==
**I have activated the "WordPress SEO by Yoast" plugin and enabled the option "Redirect ugly URL's to clean permalinks.". The public preview doesn't work. What can I do?**
Please add <strong>_ppp</strong> to the input field "Other variables not to clean:" on SEO -> Permalinks screen.
**After some time the preview link returns the message "The link has been expired!". Why?**
The plugin generates an URL with an expiring nonce. By default a link "lives" 48 hours. After 48 hours the link is expired and you need to copy and share a new link which is automatically generated on the same place under the editor.
**48 hours are not enough to me. Can I extend the nonce time?**
Yes, of course. You can use the filter `ppp_nonce_life`. Example for 5 days:
`add_filter( 'ppp_nonce_life', 'my_nonce_life' );
function my_nonce_life() {
return 60 * 60 * 24 * 5; // 5 days
}`
== Change Log ==
= 2.2 (20013-03-15): =
* Based on feedback I have removed the extra metabox and added the preview link to the main Publish metabox
* Only shows the checkbox if the post status/post type is good
* Requires now WordPress 3.5
= 2.1.1 (20012-09-19): =
* Sorry for the new update. Through a change in 2.1 a filter was applied to each query. The misplaced "The link has been expired!" message is now gone. Props Aki Björklund and Jonathan Channon.
= 2.1 (20012-09-16): =
* Introduces a filter `ppp_nonce_life`. With the filter you can adjust the expiration of a link. By default a link has a lifetime of 48 hours.
* In some situations (still not sure when) the preview link is rewritten as a permalink which results in an error. The plugin now works in this situations too.
= 2.0.1 (20012-07-25): =
* Makes the preview link copyable again
= 2.0 (20012-07-23): =
* Support for all public post types
* Saves public preview status via an AJAX request
* I18n
* Requires at least WordPress 3.3
= 1.3 (2009-06-30): =
* Hook in earlier in the post selection process to fix PHP notices
* Add uninstall functionality to remove options from the options table
= 1.2 (2009-03-30): =
* Fix preview URL for scheduled posts on sites with a permalink other than default activated.
= 1.1 (2009-03-11): =
* Don't limit public previews to posts in draft or pending status. Just exclude posts in publish status.
= 1.0 (2009-02-20): =
* Initial Public Release
