JW Short Link Generator

[gusdn1]

Hello everyone,

 

I just made a short link generator exclusively for our official website and other websites owned by the organization worldwide; this generator will make all JW website URLs shorter.

 

This is the link: IJW.LINK

 

This will be very useful for publishers doing their personal study, theocratic assignments, or other organizational activities. Publishers can also use this to share JW article links with other publishers. For example, a publisher may want to shorten an article link such as: https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=1102022953&srcid=share (Song 153: Give Me Courage), into something easily memorable by customizing the URL path, like this: ijw.link/7PfZes. Now, whenever a publisher wants to visit that exact same link, they can simply type 'ijw.link/7PfZes' into the address bar of their web browser, and they will be redirected right away to that article."

 

 

REMINDER: This short link generator should not be used in the ministry or outside of the organization. Only the official website should be used in the ministry.

 

This generator will only accept URLs from our official website and other websites owned by the organization worldwide. Therefore, if you need to shorten a URL from a random website or article not owned by the organization, it will be rejected.

 

 

I hope publishers will find this short link generator both useful and beneficial. If you have any questions or need clarification about this tool, please don't hesitate to ask. I am more than happy to assist you.

 

 

 

This short link generator is still in the beta phase, so there may be errors if it is used by too many people simultaneously. If you encounter an error that persists after a few hours, kindly DM me, and I will do my best to resolve the issue.

Thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it!

I'm currently looking into it, this seems like it's just affecting some folks, not everyone. As a suggestion, you could also try accessing the website using a different browser or device; or use a different Wi-Fi or mobile data and see if that helps.

The issue should be fixed by now. Please let me know if there are other issues occurring. Thanks!

I recently released a new tool suite called "Go To" Marker Tools. A suite contains two tools, Media Marker and Text Marker.

Please read this topic entitled " 2 New Tools created for Publishers" to learn more about this new tool.

There is an easy step to make short link with non-english languages :

 

1. Go to a link need to be copied (e.g.  https://www.jw.org/uk/свідки-єгови/конгреси/  )

2. Insert a blank symbol, e.g. after /uk /  https://www.jw.org/uk /свідки-єгови/конгреси/  )

3. Copypaste a link whetether you want.

4. Delete a blank symbol. You will got a clear link, without a 20%%%%

For example a link pasted to email or messenger directly is

https://www.jw.org/uk/%D1%81%D0%B2%D1%96%D0%B4%D0%BA%D0%B8%D1%94%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8/%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0% B3%D1%80%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%B8

 

but a way below is much friendly and fine:

 

https://www.jw.org/uk/свідки-єгови/конгреси

The website and all its associated links are currently down. 

 

There is suddenly an issue going on with the DNS system causing an outage across all websites and services.

This comes a day after a transfer is made or the server's root domain from a German company IONOS to a French company OVH.

Unfortunately, no timeline can be provided at this time when the website and the links will be available again.
