Check for Broken Links


This plugin does the job well for pages, posts and comments. However, it does not scan the entire site, as it does not include searching to dead links in Custom Post Types - so this is my only reason for my 4 stars as oppose to 5.



UPDATE: After that awesome response, which is refreshing as some others resist and give excuses, I'm updating my review to 5 stars, can't wait for the next update - you guys are awesome and deserve it...


Works well, but lacks support for CPT.


No membership, no cloud, no muss, no fuss. Just works. Thank you :)
