I was checking the front page of my site at W3C Link Checker – https://validator.w3.org/checklink

And it gave me these strange missing URLs eg:
```
 Line: 159 https://mysite/574w
    Status: 404 Not Found

    The link is broken. Double-check that you have not made any typo, or mistake in copy-pasting. If the link points to a resource that no longer exists, you may want to remove or fix the link. 

error Line: 153 https://mysite/768w
    Status: 404 Not Found

error Lines: 153, 159, 167, 173 https://mysite/300w
    Status: 404 Not Found
```
Looking at and searching in the source of the page I found that these broken links are being found in the html of Kadence Info boxes, eg:

srcset="https://mysite/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/homes-on-map-16x9-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://mysite/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/homes-on-map-16x9-1-400x225.jpg 400w, https://mysite/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/homes-on-map-16x9-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://mysite/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/homes-on-map-16x9-1.jpg 978w"

So it looks like eg the “768W” in

srcset="https://mysite/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/homes-on-map-16x9-1-768x432.jpg 768w

is being interpreted by W3C as

https://mysite/768w

My inkling is that a URL like

https://mysite/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/homes-on-map-16x9-1-768x432.jpg

Cannot include and is made invalid by having a ” 768w” at the end of it and so I believe this could be the cause of the error.

In any case I think Kadence is a great plugin and look forward to working with you to identify the correct cause and hopefully fix the issue.

I imagine broken links like this are pretty detrimental to SEO.

I am happy to send you the full URL of the page via email if you like….

Hey,
srcset should include a width setting after the url. See here to learn more: https://html.com/attributes/img-srcset/

This plugin does not control srcset. That is controlled by WordPress core.

You can do a simple test, add a image to your page using the core image block, set the size to medium and look at our HTML output.

I would be happy to help you if you can post a link.

FYI, W3C Link Checker reports similar errors for https://www.kadenceblocks.com/info-box-block/ , see W3C Link Checker result for https://www.kadenceblocks.com/info-box-block/

The link checker will report those errors anywhere that there are images with srcset, for example here is a nice demo from start sites by brainforce: https://websitedemos.net/outdoor-adventure-02/

Or you can test with this : https://webkit.org/demos/srcset/

https://validator.w3.org/checklink?uri=https%3A%2F%2Fwebkit.org%2Fdemos%2Fsrcset%2F&hide_type=all&depth=&check=Check

You will see the same in the report, the issue is not with the code it’s with the Link checker, you can safely ignore those.

Hi Ben @britner,

Thanks once again for your prompt and helpful support and pointing out the references for srcset and examples and pointing out the cause.

Obviously the cause is that W3C incorrectly interprets this as a broken link, and the fix I guess is to ignore it.

And my concern would be that search engines would see this as broken links but hopefully they are smarter than W3c.

Nothing to do with the plugin.

Marking as Resolved.

@fastfasterfastest,

I thought it was a good idea to check the demo sites of some of the Block plugins like you did with Kadence.

The Info Box demo page of other plugins produces this result in W3C as well.

So it is not HTML error and not specific to Kadence and likely an error on W3C’s part.
