v2.0 nope

  • For security reasons, not willing to allow access by external site. Plain old link checking is all we need.

  • Hey @jld36

    Thank you for the review. Just to clarify, you are still able to use the old version of Broken Link Checker if you did not like the new 2.0 version. You can find the option to switch within the plugin settings.

    Regarding your security concern – we do not store any login information upon connecting your site to The Hub, or by installing the WPMU Dashboard plugin to connect your site.

    The 2.0 version is also still in beta and we will work on improving BLC based on feedback received by our users whom we greatly value.

    Best regards,

    Dave

    Hi @jld36

    I hope you are doing well today.

    Please note that the new part of core have some benefits:
    https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/broken-link-checker/

    The new part of the core is less bloat because it’s run by an engine we’ve developed and runs on the WPMU DEV side. In the end, it won’t take down your server resources, and we are the ones who pay for the resources used on our side. Taking into account some hostings with low resources and having on site many plugins, taking down 1 cron job from the site is a benefit.

    Note, you don’t need to have the WPMU DEV Dashboard plugin and connection to HUB to still use the old engine/old version of the plugin. After the recent update, you can use/switch to the old version which is still a part of the core of Broken Link Checker 2.0.

    Kind Regards,
    Kris
