详情介绍:

Internet Archive Wayback Machine Link Fixer is a WordPress plugin designed to combat link rot—the gradual decay of web links as pages are moved, changed, or taken down. It automatically scans your post content—on save and across existing posts—to detect outbound links. For each one, it checks the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine for an archived version and creates a snapshot if one isn't available. When a linked page disappears, the plugin helps preserve your user experience by redirecting visitors to a reliable archived version. It also works proactively by archiving your own posts every time they're updated, creating a consistent backup of your content's history. Protect your links, preserve your content, and automate the archiving process—all with minimal effort. Key Features

常见问题:

How does the link checker work?

https://github.com/a8cteam51/internet-archive-wayback-machine-link-fixer/raw/refs/heads/trunk/_docs/demo.mp4 Your content is checked for any links. When it finds a link it will check if we have already handled this link before, if not, it will find or create a snapshot of the webpage on the Internet Archive. Then if later that link's target site goes offline, we can change the link to the archived version.

How do we determine if a link is broken?

We use a similar policy as Wikipedia. We check links once per week and if we get 3 consecutive errors, we treat the link as broken, unless the target website comes back.

Can all links be handled?

Sadly not, some sites do not allow the Internet Archive to archive their content.

Is my own content archived?

Yes, you can enable the Auto Archiver and this will create new snapshots every time you make changes.

What happens to broken links?

When we find a broken link, we update the src on the fly; this means the base content is not edited and remains as created.

How long does this take?

This all depends on how many links there are within your content. This is all handled in the background but can take many weeks if a site has thousands of links. It is best used as a tool you setup and leave running in the background.

Does this add lots of overhead to my site?

As this is all processed behind the scenes, in custom tables it should not add any noticeable overhead to your site.

Do I need an archive.org api key?

While you don't need one, it will greatly increase the number of snapshots you can create in a day.

What happens if the Internet Archive goes offline?

If the Internet Archive services go offline, the link fixer will delay all processes by 24 hours and try again later.

How often are my own posts updated when auto archive is active?

Existing content is sent to the Wayback Machine in batch when the plugin is activated, then again every 30 days (by default, but can be changed). New content is sent to be archived shortly after it is published. Updates to existing content also trigger updates to be sent to the Wayback Machine.
