详情介绍:
- Automatic background scanning — Uses WP-Cron to scan posts and check links on a schedule you control.
- Multi-source scanning — Detects broken links in post content (
<a href>), broken images (<img src>), Gutenberg block attributes (embed, button, image, file blocks), ACF custom fields, navigation menus, and widget areas. - Link type badges — Every link is tagged by type (Anchor, Image, Block, ACF, Menu, Widget) so you know exactly where a broken URL came from.
- Broken link report — A clean admin table listing every broken link: URL, type, HTTP status code, the source it was found in, and when it was last checked.
- Status filters — Quickly filter links by All, Broken, Redirect, OK, Unchecked, or Ignored.
- Bulk actions — Re-check, ignore, or delete multiple links at once.
- Inline link replace — Swap any broken URL directly from the admin table without editing the post manually.
- Export CSV — Export your link data to a CSV file, filtered by status and link type, from the Export tab.
- Real-time progress — Scan and check operations show a live progress bar so you always know how far along the process is.
- Email notifications — Get a digest email listing new broken links after each cron check run.
- Configurable settings — Set check frequency (daily/weekly/monthly), request timeout, links per cron run, and excluded URL patterns.
- Dashboard widget — A quick summary of total, broken, redirect, and OK links on your WordPress dashboard.
- Scan on save — Newly published or updated posts are scanned immediately when saved.
- When a post is published or updated, Link Status Scanner extracts all URLs from the content — anchors, images, Gutenberg block attributes, and ACF fields — and stores them in the database.
- A scheduled cron job also scans navigation menus and widget areas.
- A second cron job checks each stored URL by making an HTTP HEAD request and recording the response code.
- Broken links (4xx, 5xx, connection errors) are flagged in the admin report with their link type badge.
- If email notifications are enabled, you receive a digest email listing newly broken links after each check run.

常见问题:
Does this plugin slow down my site?
No. All scanning and HTTP checking happens through WP-Cron, which runs in the background. The only admin-side actions are when you manually trigger a scan or re-check.
What types of links are scanned?
The plugin scans <a href> anchors, <img src> images, Gutenberg block attributes (embed URL, button URL, image link, file link), ACF custom fields (URL, link, image, and file field types), navigation menus, and classic/block widget areas. mailto:, tel:, javascript:, and anchor-only # links are automatically skipped.
Can I exclude certain domains or URLs?
Yes. Go to the Settings tab and add URL patterns (one per line) to the Excluded URL Patterns field. Any link containing that pattern will be skipped.
Why does WP-Cron not run on schedule?
WP-Cron triggers on page loads. On low-traffic sites it may not run on time. For reliable scheduling, disable WP-Cron and add a real system cron job:
*/5 * * * * curl -s https://yoursite.com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron > /dev/null 2>&1
What does "Redirect" status mean?
A redirect (301, 302, 307, 308) means the URL has moved. The link still works but you may want to update it to the final destination for SEO.
Does the plugin work with ACF?
Yes. If Advanced Custom Fields is active, the scanner reads URL, link, image, and file field types. ACF is not required — the scanner simply skips ACF fields when ACF is not installed.
Can I export the results?
Yes. The Export tab lets you download a CSV file of all tracked links. You can filter by status (Broken, Redirect, OK, etc.) and by link type (Anchor, Image, Block, ACF, Menu, Widget) before exporting.

<img src>), Gutenberg block URLs (embed, button, image, file blocks), ACF custom fields, navigation menus, and widget areas are now scanned in addition to post content anchors. - New: Link type column — every link in the report table is tagged with a color-coded badge (Anchor, Image, Block, ACF, Menu, Widget).
- New: Export CSV tab — export all tracked links to a CSV file, with filters by status and link type. File includes UTF-8 BOM for Excel compatibility.
- Improvement: Scan and check operations now show a real-time progress bar.
- New: Inline replace link — click "Replace" on any link row to swap the URL directly from the admin table without editing the post manually.
- The replacement updates both the database record and the actual post content.
