详情介绍:
- Posts, pages and custom post types: classic editor and Gutenberg blocks (including embeds and file blocks)
- Elementor pages (
_elementor_data) - Divi and other shortcode-based builders (button and module URLs)
- Navigation menus (custom links)
- Text, Custom HTML and Block widgets
- Approved comments (optional, off by default)
- Images (optional, on by default)
- Edit a URL everywhere it appears, unlink it (the text stays), update a redirected link to its final URL, mark a link as "not broken", or re-check it.
- Every action shows a dry run first, listing each change before anything is saved.
- Post changes are saved as revisions. "Undo last bulk action" restores the previous content.
- Posts that someone has open in the editor are skipped, so neither copy overwrites the other.
- Small custom tables. Uninstalling removes all tables, options and scheduled jobs.
- Checks run in the background with Action Scheduler, in small batches. By default at most one request per website every 2 seconds and 600 checks per hour.
- Normal front-end page views run no extra database queries. Only 404 responses look up the cached redirect list, and the optional 404 log writes one row per 404.
- A switch at the top of the plugin screen pauses all checking.
安装:
- Install Unbreak from Plugins → Add New, or upload the zip under Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin.
- Activate it. The first scan starts in the background right away.
- Open Tools → Unbreak to follow the progress and review the results.

常见问题:
Why are some links marked "Couldn't verify"?
The site blocked the automated check (for example with a 999 status or a bot challenge page), so the result says nothing about whether the page exists. Open the link in your browser to be sure.
Why isn't a failing link shown as broken right away?
Sites go down for a few minutes all the time. Unbreak checks a failing link again later and only marks it broken once it keeps failing. Until then it is listed under "All problems" as "Re-checking (not confirmed yet)".
Will it slow down my site?
No. Checks run in the background with rate limits, and normal page views run no extra database queries. You can pause all checking at any time.
Can I undo a bulk change?
Yes. "Undo last bulk action" restores every changed post, menu item, widget or comment, unless it was edited again in the meantime.
Does Unbreak change anything else in my content?
No. An action changes only the link: the href or src value, or, for "Unlink", the <a> tag around the text, which stays. New URLs are sanitized (http and https only), and you must be allowed to edit the post.
For that one save, WordPress's HTML filter (KSES) is switched off and switched back on right after. Otherwise, when the user running the action lacks the "unfiltered HTML" permission (for example a site administrator on multisite), KSES would remove embeds, iframes or scripts that an administrator added earlier and that have nothing to do with the link.
What happens when I uninstall the plugin?
Deleting Unbreak from the Plugins screen removes its database tables, options, transients and scheduled jobs.
Does it work on multisite?
Yes. Each site has its own tables and settings, and the plugin can be network-activated.
