WordPress Broken Link Checker Plugin

ADVERTISEMENTS

Broken Link Checker is a WordPress plugin to monitor your blog looking for broken links and let you know if any are found.

Broken Link Checker features:

  • Checks your posts (and pages) in the background.
  • Detects links that don’t work and missing images.
  • Notifies you on the Dashboard if any are found.
  • Link checking intervals can be configured.
  • New/modified posts are checked ASAP.

If there is any broken links found, it will show in a new tab of WP admin panel - Manage -> Broken Links. A notification will also appear on the Dashboard.

The Broken Links tab displays a list of invalid URLs found along with the relevant posts and the anchor text of the links. View and Edit Post do exactly what they say and Discardwill remove the message about a broken link, but not the link itself (so it will show up again later unless you fix it; this plugin does not modify your links).

Installation is easy, just like other Wordpress plugins:

  1. Download the broken-link-checker.zip file to your local machine.
  2. Unzip the file
  3. Upload broken-link-checker folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  4. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
