My Private Site causes Broken Link Checker to not detect broken internal links
-
I want to inform you about a plugin incompatibility. Therefore published here on www.ads-software.com despite https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/important-support-for-my-private-site-has-moved/ to https://zatzlabs.com/submit-ticket/
The plugin Broken Link Checker fails if your plugin “My Private Site” is active.
Broken Link Checker seems to conduct its link checking as an anonymous user.
My Private Site redirects all anonymous requests for
example.com/*
toexample.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=requestURL
with HTTP status code 302.Hence Broken Link Checker fails to identify broken internal links. It identifies 404 “not found” resources falsely as being 302 “moved temporarily”.
Followup: I think there’s nothing that “My Private Site” can do to fix it. If desired the fix could only be on the requesting side, i.e. an advanced setting like “Conduct link checks as a certain role or user” as posted over at the support forum of Broken Link Checker.
