Reusable QR Codes
v1.1.0 · by minuar
Print a QR code once and change where it points at any time. Optional logo, a QR Code block and a privacy-friendly scan counter.
About this plugin
A printed QR code usually points to one fixed address. When that address changes, the sign, menu or label has to be reprinted.
Reusable QR Codes points each code at a permanent address on your own site, which then redirects to any destination you choose. Change the destination in WordPress and every printed copy follows, with no reprint. Museums use it for exhibit labels, restaurants for menus, shops for promotions, and event organisers for schedules.
Features
- Change the destination at any time, as often as you like
- Optional logo in the centre: a site logo or a custom image, chosen per QR code
- QR Code block to show a code on any page, with an optional caption and download button
- Scan counter per code, with the date of the last scan
- Print-ready downloads as PNG (1024×1024) or SVG
- Your own look: colours and dot styles
- Turn a code off without deleting it; it then sends visitors to your home page
- Translated into German, Spanish and French
Everything runs on your own site: no account, no API key, no external service and no fees.
Privacy
The plugin stores no personal data: no IP addresses, no cookies and no user agents. For each QR code it stores only a scan count and the date of the last scan. It makes no external requests.
QR codes are drawn with the open-source QR Code Styling library, bundled with the plugin.
