Kandeshop Broken Links Checker

0/5 (0 ratings) — active installs Updated Nov 19, 2025

The Kandeshop Broken Links Checker is a WordPress plugin designed to identify and list broken or non-functional external links. It scans through your site in batches and organizes links into five tabs:

  1. Broken/Unreachable Links: Shows all links (internal and external) that return an error (404, 500) or are unreachable (timeout).
  2. Working External Links: Shows all links that are NOT on your own domain and return a successful status.
  3. Pages Checked: Lists all posts and pages that have been scanned in your current session.
  4. Guide & Limitations: A simple “how-to” guide with important warnings about how the plugin works.
  5. Status Code Explanations: A full explanation of what each error (404, 403, 999, cURL 28) actually means.

The plugin now intelligently categorizes errors and features a real-time progress indicator that shows you exactly which post is being scanned.
