The Links & QR tool turns any long web address into a tidy short link with a matching QR code. The best part: you can change where a link points later without changing the link or reprinting the QR code.
A printed flyer’s QR code never has to change. Point it somewhere new any time and every existing printout keeps working.
Open the tool
Top ↑In the sidebar, click Links & QR. You’ll see a Create a short link panel at the top and your existing links below it.
Create a short link
Top ↑- Title — give the link a name so you know what it is later (e.g. Spring registration flyer). This is for your eyes only.
- Destination URL — paste the full web address you want it to point to, starting with
https://. - Custom ending (optional) — type a word to make a memorable link like
your-domain/spring-flyer. Leave it blank for a random short code. - Click Create. Your new link appears as a card at the top of your list, QR code and all.
If you see an error, check that your destination starts with https:// and has no spaces. If a custom ending is already taken, try a different one.
Copy the short link
Top ↑Each card shows the short URL. Click the copy button next to it to copy the link to your clipboard, then paste it into an email, post, or document.
Save the QR code
Top ↑Every link comes with a QR code you can print or drop into a design.
- On the link’s card, click Save QR.
- Choose Download PNG for a standard image, or Download SVG for a crisp version that scales to any size (great for print).
The QR code points at the short link, not the destination — so it keeps working even after you change where the link goes.
Change where a link points
Top ↑This is the whole reason to use short links: update the destination without touching anything you’ve already shared.
- On the card, click edit destination. The card dims and shows an edit box.
- Type the new web address (starting with
https://). - Click Save.
The short link and QR code stay exactly the same — only the destination changes. Anyone who scans the old QR now lands on the new page.
See how many clicks a link got
Top ↑On any card, click stats to see how many times the link has been clicked, including unique visitors. It’s a quick way to tell how a flyer or post is performing.
Find a link
Top ↑Once you have a lot of links, use the search box at the top of “Your links” to filter by title, short URL, or destination. Results narrow as you type.
Delete a link
Top ↑- On the card, click the trash button.
- The card darkens and asks you to confirm. Click Delete (or Cancel to keep it).
Deleting is permanent for that link. The short link and QR code stop working — anyone who scans an old printout is sent to the Digit-L homepage instead. The link’s address is retired so it can’t be reused by someone else.
The “Proudly Supported” screen
Top ↑When someone opens one of your short links, they briefly see a branded “Proudly Supported by Digit-L” screen with a preview of where they’re headed, then continue to the destination. There’s nothing to set up — it happens automatically on every link.
