How to use the short URL of the native website?
For example, when I go to youtube or flickr, right-click on a video or photo URL and select "Copy ShortURL", it always uses the is.gd short URL service but does not automatically use the short URL of you.be or flic.kr.

Love the app. Would like capability to customize the keyboard shortcut.

thank you for making it compatible with quantum!
i rate it 3 stars since it is missing the ability to assign a a keyboard shortcut rather than looking for buttons and get the hands off from the keyboard and onto the mouse.

i used to work with shortly url shortner[1], but it incompatible with quantum.
it used to let you choose the url shortner service (bit.ly, goo.gl, etc.) and once you assign a keyboard shortcut, when using the shortcut it automatically shorten the url and copies it to the clipboard.

if you had such functionality, it will be a bliss.
i wish other could up vote it (i will try to post the same over the github page if such exist)

Why it send an error message on the proper page of "Copy ShortURL"?

Works perfectly on Firefox Quantum 57.0 (MacBook Pro)
Thank you for the great work.

Regarding the bit.ly documentation it was a bit of a struggle to get the appropriate OAuth token generated. Bit.ly service can also use OAuth Webflow token. This addon requires the simpler OAuth token and it has to be used in the extension's Custom URL pulldown option rather than Bit.ly option.

I was using a now deprecated URL shortener which had an option that would also capture the Title of the page and insert that into the clipboard. I found this useful when pasting the information into email or on Twitter. This way one could see what the URL is for and saves having to type that information in.

This is probably the best URL shortener i'I've come across for FF, and it works with FF 57! One thing though: I'd like to disable notifications as they're distracting and a bit unnecessary. I saw that an issue on the github was opened for this, but was then closed. Any chance the option to disable notifications can be added as a checkbox in the preferences?

never failed. i.gd is not always able to shorten what i send there. bitly.com is imho best, but needs registering with email and Copy ShortURL needs a token. not so easy...
i also would like a shorter notification.
thanx for replying and evolving the addon. simply getting the short url into the clipboard is still not functioning. any idea why? it worked before i fuzzeled with bit.ly.

Now that Shortly is not compatible with e20s and is not (yet?) a WebExtension, I looked for a URL shortener that could fit those needs. And I found Copy ShortURL.
Well... It's a great extension: it just does what's supposed to do.
I just wish I could disable the notifications. (Maybe in the next version...)

Wish I found out about this addon before developing my own to replace the one I used to use (non-webextensions)

great work with this!
