Posting full, unshortened URLs in dlvr.it

Prefer to share full links instead of shortened ones? Learn how to turn off link shortening for a single social account or set full URLs as the default across all your routes.

By default, dlvr.it shortens the URLs in your posts. If you'd rather share the full, original link, you can turn this off β€” either for a specific social account or globally across all your routes.
​

Note on Google Analytics tracking: When using the No Shortener option, dlvr.it posts the original link without modification. Google Analytics tracking tags will not be added automatically. See our guide on using Google Analytics tags with dlvr.it if you need tracking on unshortened links.


Option 1: Turn off shortening for a specific social account

Use this if you want full URLs on one channel but shortened links on others.

  1. Log into dlvr.it and click the Socials tab.

  2. Find and expand the social account you want to change.

  3. Click Edit, then click Links.

  5. Click Save.

All future posts to this social account will include the full, unshortened URL.


Option 2: Turn off shortening globally (all routes + new defaults)

Use this if you want full URLs across all your social accounts β€” now and in the future.

  1. Log into dlvr.it and click the Socials tab.

  2. Click the Short Links tab.

  3. Click No Shortener.

  4. Choose your options:

    • Apply No Shortener to all existing routes β€” updates all your current routes immediately

    • Default No Shortener for new routes β€” makes full URLs the default for any routes you create going forward

  5. Click Save. You'll see a confirmation that your settings have been updated.
