URL Extractor allows you to extract URLs using custom tokens (Title, Post URL, Date, Status, Author, Website URL, Website Name) of any post or page from your Child Sites and export them as CSV or TXT files. Provided search options will enable you to refine your search by:
* Type: Post or Page
* Status: Published, Pending, Private, Scheduled, Draft, Trash
* Arbitrary keywords
* Date Range
* Child Sites
You can easily customize your output. Combining the provided tokens and custom characters, create any output structure you need. This is often helpful for both client reports and indexing software.
## How to use URL Extractor
In the **Output format** field, either type in the Available Tokens or click on the green bubbles of respective tokens to insert them automatically **NOTE:** You can also combine plain text with the token names. For example: `This is the Post URL [post.url], and this is the Post Title [post.title]`
Type in the desired text in the Separator field **NOTE:** This text will be used to separate individual entries in the output. By leaving the field empty, the individual entries will be placed in a new line.
