描述

NaveenCodes Broken Link Fixer finds every broken link and image on your site and gives you one focused dashboard to deal with them — fix the URL inline, unlink while keeping the anchor text, recheck, or dismiss.

Broken links hurt your visitors and your SEO. Most link checkers are heavy, route your data through external services, or lock the useful parts behind a paywall. This plugin is different:

100% local — every check runs from your own server. No external service, no account, nothing is sent to us.
Free forever — every feature is included. No pro version, no ads, no upsells.
Zero bloat — one focused job with a clean, fast dashboard.

Features

Scan posts, pages, and any public custom post type for links and images.
Also scan navigation menus, comments, and text widgets (optional).
Batched, throttled HTTP checking that won’t overload your server.
Clear status for every link: Broken, Warning, Redirect, Healthy, Pending, Dismissed.
Fix a URL inline — the post, comment, or menu item is updated for you.
One-click “Use target” replaces a redirected link with its final URL.
Unlink a broken link while keeping its anchor text.
Recheck any link on demand, or recheck/dismiss many at once with bulk actions.
Dismiss false positives — they stay ignored in future scans.
Search and filter the report (one-line filter bar) and export it to CSV.
Internal/External chip on every link so you can prioritise.
Weekly email digest when broken links are found (optional).
WordPress dashboard widget and Site Health integration.
Recent-activity log of every scan, fix, unlink, and dismissal.
WP-CLI support: wp ncblf scan, wp ncblf check, wp ncblf status.
Daily background recheck via WP-Cron keeps results fresh.
Configurable: post types, sources, batch size, timeout, excluded domains.
Premium dashboard UI with link-health stats at a glance.

Privacy

This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to external services. Link checks are HTTP requests made directly from your server to the URLs found in your own content. No analytics, no tracking, no ads.

常见问题

Does this send my data anywhere?: No. All scanning and checking happens on your own server. Outbound requests only go to the URLs already present in your content, to test whether they still work.
Will it slow down my site?: No. Links are checked in small, configurable batches with a timeout, and the heavy work runs while you’re on the dashboard or in a daily background task.
What counts as broken?: HTTP 404/410 responses and unreachable hosts are marked Broken. Other error codes (like 403 or 500) are marked Warning so you can review them. Redirects are tracked separately.
Can I exclude certain domains?: Yes — add them in Scan Settings. Links pointing to excluded domains are skipped entirely.
Is it really free?: Yes. Free forever, every feature included, no ads. Built with care by NaveenCodes.

更新日志

1.5.0

Added: “Remove” button on every link row — permanently strips the broken link from its source across all content types: post content (including Gutenberg HTML blocks), comments, navigation menus (deletes the menu item), text/HTML/block widgets, and custom fields (post meta). Keeps anchor text for links; removes the tag entirely for images.
Added: “Permanently remove selected” bulk action — select broken external links, apply in one click.
Fixed: Unlink and Remove now correctly gate widget and meta sources via edit_theme_options and edit_post capabilities.

1.4.1

Fixed: Plugin URI updated to the WordPress.org plugin page (was pointing to dev site).

1.4.0

Added: Custom fields scanner — detects broken and redirecting third-party URLs stored in post meta (ACF, page builders, theme options). Enable via Settings Extra sources.
Added: External / Internal link filter — filter the link table to show only third-party (external) links or only internal links in one click.
Added: is_external flag stored per link in DB — avoids per-row host comparison on every page load; existing installs upgraded automatically.
Added: Custom field source shown in “Found in” column as “Post title (field: meta_key)” with a direct edit link.

1.3.0

Improved: Find Source now uses a 4-pass search (exact match, target/action_data match, LIKE partial match, PHP-side regex match) — finds redirect rules even when stored as regex patterns or without leading slash.
Improved: All four supported plugins (Redirection, Rank Math, Yoast SEO Premium, Simple 301 Redirects) now also search the target URL column to catch loop-creating rules from both directions.
Fixed: Stats bar now correctly displays all 7 counters (Broken, Warnings, Redirects, Loops, Healthy, Pending, Total) in a single row.
Fixed: Redirect Rules card — intro text now sits inside the padded card body; replaced browser-inconsistent details/summary toggle with a proper button.

1.2.0

Added: “Find Source” button on every Redirect Loop row — searches Redirection, Rank Math, Yoast SEO Premium, and Simple 301 Redirects for the rule causing the loop.
Added: Inline source panel showing exactly which plugin has the rule, the source target path, and its current status.
Added: “Disable This Rule” button — disables or deletes the offending redirect rule directly from the LinkGuard dashboard without leaving the page.

1.1.0

Added: Redirect loop detection — links stuck in ABA chains are automatically detected and shown as “Redirect Loop” status.
Added: Redirect Rules Manager — define Exact, Prefix, Domain, or Regex rules to bulk-fix redirects across all your content in one click.
Added: Apply Rules action — applies all rules to every redirect and loop link, updating posts, pages, and menus automatically.
Added: Loop stat counter in the dashboard header.

1.0.0

Added: Site-wide link and image scanning across posts, pages, custom post types, menus, comments, and widgets.
Added: Batched HTTP checking with progress bar and daily background recheck.
Added: Per-link actions – Fix URL, Use redirect target, Unlink, Recheck, Dismiss.
Added: Bulk actions, CSV export, and Internal/External link chips.
Added: Weekly email digest, dashboard widget, and Site Health integration.
Added: Recent-activity log and WP-CLI commands (scan, check, status).
Added: Search, status filter, pagination, and link-health stats.
Added: Scan settings – post types, sources, batch size, timeout, excluded domains.
Added: A small tribute in memory of Maa.
