    I generated the link on the sitemap (at https://www.xml-sitemaps.com/) and it reported that there are 17 broken links. So, I installed the Broken link checker plugin and looked for the broken links. However, the plugin reported that there is no broken link. How can this be? The plugin, apparently, is not working. Please help me resolve this.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Did you let it run for a while? We had this problem also and it turns out it just needed 24 – 36 hours to get through every link on the site!

    rotate a little? I did not understand. I installed the plugin and looked for broken links, but none appeared. When I created the sitemap, there were 17.

    Hello @lucilafreire,

    Broken Link Checker is distributing the link queue so that it doesn’t overload the server. When any page is loaded BLC will check some amount of links depending on settings. If there’s a lot of links on the website and there’s not much traffic it might take some time to have all the links checked.

    You can check the status of queue on the settings page, it will say something like:
    Found 3 broken links
    No URLs in the work queue.
    Detected 6 unique URLs in 6 links.

    If it says that there are number of URLs in the work queue, then it’s not finished yet. If there are links in the queue you can reload page as many time as needed to have them all processed.

    Kind regards
