  2. Replace broken links by the follow structure:

    Sometimes, in the process of remove the broken link, it is necessary to keep the information of the old URL for research consistency. The relevance of some pages for researchers of any kind, depends to keep this reference (URL). It`s a way to inform them that, even besides the link is not available anymore, I will know that the exactly URL was available in that page once. For example, look to this sentence:

    <p>The astronomer Carl Sagan <a href="http://example.com/speach.html">said once</a> that the probability of us, human beings, being alone in the universe is near "4”.</p>

    I`m sugesting that you guys…

  4. Page check

    I'd love to see an option to enable a check of the pages that the links point to, and then flag if the page itself has been updated.

    This would be particularly useful for links that point to external pages by checking if a page has been updated since the last time the site administrator checked or changed a give link.

  5. 500 and 416

    Hi all, I can't understand why I found those broken links as the links are working...

    here's some examples:

    500 Internal Server Error
    https://www.udemy.com/acoustics-analog-and-digital-fundamentals-for-everyone/?couponCode=98930

    416 Requested Range Not...
    https://pro.beatport.com/release/saving-data/1507714

    all links from this domain https://pro.beatport.com are 416...

    but if I click on the links... everything is fine.
    Can someone help please ?
    thanks

  6. Option to send email notification to the user who last edited the post, not the author

    The pages on our websites are old and our site editors share them, so sending notifications to post authors wouldn't work. It would be useful if the broken links notifications went to the users who are currently maintaining the pages, e.g. those who last edited it.

  7. Add author in broken link details

    Add the author username in the broken link 'Details' section so that admin's can follow up with an author if they do not fix link after email notification.

  9. I would hope it would work with multisite setups. It appears it doesn't.

    Doesn't appear to work with multisite.
    Such a great idea for a plugin, such a disappointment it doesn't function.

  12. Automatically Delete Posts That Contain Broken Links

    I have several websites that contain thousands of posts. Tens of new posts are added everyday. All images are hotlinked on external servers.
    It would be way too cumbersome to review all broken links regularly.
    I would like a feature that would automatically move to trash all posts that contain broken links.

  16. Response code 0

    Hi, there is a bug in this plugin. I get error for every link. The HTTP response code is 0. My site is entirely on SSL. Could be the problem

  17. Fix Markdown URL support

    It appears when I use the Broken Links page to replace or Unlink and URL, it doesn't know how to deal with Markdown URL formats, and inserts an HTML href in the middle of the Markdown, creating a nasty jumble. Since I use Markdown across my site, I have to go in an manually edit each one in the Post Edit window, instead of fixing it quickly in the Broken Links view.

  19. Can add schedule checking instead of every X hours?

    We can now set the plugin to check all links in every x hours, but this will slow down the website during the checking cycle. I believe most website owner will want to have this checking tasks being done during low traffic time. Can you add schedule checking feature? Thanks very much and this is a really good plugin

  20. Suppose you have a list of links, say 50, on a WORD, PDF, RFT, etc file. Might there be a way to validate each of them automatically?
