    Good morning, will the plugin detect a link like this (example made manually – on another website):

    • it is, for example, to a website that no longer works – they enter, for example, an imaginary website lknlsdnsjfsklfnksjdnkjf.com and it does not detect this link as invalid – even though the website this line is for does not exist.
    • And what if someone has a 404 error or redirection on a given website?

    Hi Danishsard,

    Thanks for your interest in Link Finder! In general, Link Finder should detect all links that response with an HTTP status code of >= 300. More specifically:

    • Yes, it should detect links to non-existing sites as a 400 Bad Request.
    • Same for 404 or redirects (3xx).

    Hope this answers your questions.

    Best regards,
    Bob
