Draeger-IT Media Kit Generator

by Stefan Draeger

Description

Draeger-IT Media Kit Generator helps creators, bloggers and publishers maintain a professional media kit directly in WordPress.

The plugin stores profile data, social reach, monthly blog traffic, collaboration formats, pricing notes and usage-rights information in WordPress. It can then generate a bilingual PDF report and save it as a normal attachment in the Media Library.

Features include:

Creator / brand profile and contact information.
Logo selection from the WordPress Media Library.
Social-media channels and follower counts.
Monthly blog views with a weighted daily average over the latest six months.
A compact six-month blog-views chart in the PDF.
Collaboration formats and guideline prices.
Separate usage / advertising-rights notes.
German and English PDF pages.
PDF history using a native WordPress list table.
Permanent deletion of generated reports from the Media Library.
A stable /media-kit/latest/ URL that always redirects to the newest report.
[media_kit_generator_link] shortcode for linking to the latest report.
No external API, analytics service or tracking dependency.

The plugin does not send Media Kit data to third-party services.

An About & Support admin page provides author information, the Draeger-IT blog link and a direct support email address for problems, questions and inquiries.

Faq

Does the plugin use an external service?

No. The plugin stores its data in WordPress and generates PDFs locally on the WordPress server.

Where are generated PDFs stored?

Generated PDFs are registered as normal WordPress Media Library attachments.

What happens when I delete a generated PDF in the plugin?

The attachment and the corresponding PDF file are permanently deleted from WordPress.

What does `/media-kit/latest/` do?

It is a stable public URL that responds with a temporary redirect to the newest generated Media Kit PDF.

Does uninstalling the plugin delete my PDFs and logos?

No. Plugin options, plugin tables and plugin-specific metadata are removed. Existing Media Library files remain untouched.

Does the plugin support older private Draeger-IT versions?

Yes. Version 1.5.0 includes a one-time migration for settings and custom tables created by earlier dit_mk_* versions.
