We updated Bitly's navigation menu in September, 2022!
If you're used to the old look, check out the changes.
Once a link is shortened in Bitly, it cannot be deleted or archived. But it can be hidden or redirected.
A hidden link will still function when anyone clicks it, but it won't appear in on your Bitly pages and analytics.
Let's take a look at how to:
To hide a link:
- Go to your All Links page
- Select the link from the list. You can also use the search at the top of the page to find a specific link.
- Click the Edit button
- Click Hide Link
- Click Confirm
To hide multiple links:
- Go to your All Links page
- Select the checkboxes next to the links you'd like to hide
- Select Hide
To view your hidden links:
- Go to your All Links page
- On the filter bar, check the "Hidden Links Only"
To unhide a link:
- View your hidden links using the steps above
- Select a link from the list and follow the steps to hide a link at the top of the page
- Click Unhide Link
- Click Confirm
