    does it work with the update area, not only a blog post?

    I installed the plugin but now where is the option for it in the dashboard?
    Thanks!

    No sorry, the plugin does not work with status update form. It’s for the blog posts based on the example url and the list you gave matched with your site’s blog posts, hence the plugin recommendation. The plugin is more for developers so there’s no UI in dashboard but adding code in functions.php and in template file. Have you read the information given in the plugin page and tried to follow the instructions?
