Script timeout in Broken Link Checker

Hi @denisbh,

Just to be sure, you are using the “Local” or the “Cloud” version of the BLC plugin? Does the issue occur on both modes?

Could you please copy and provide us with the Site Health Info ie under Tools > Site Health > Info and click the “Copy Site Info to Clipboard” Button?

Looking forward to your response.

Kind Regards,

Nithin

Hello @denisbh

Thank you for sharing your site info, I couldn’t find anything that could be related to your issue on your site and server info.

The mentioned issue could be happening because plugin codes are corrupted or some other plugin conflicting with the Broken link checker or your hosting storage has issues, since the 1200 seconds (20 minutes), is a significantly extended time limit, given that the default typically set in PHP configurations (max_execution_time) is 30 seconds.

I suggest first trying to uninstall the broken link checker plugin completely and install a fresh copy of the latest version of plugin, and if it wasn’t helpful run a conflict test by disabling all other plugins and switching to a default theme like Twenty Twenty-Four, … or other themes.

It’s better to run the test on a staging site, you may take a look a this document to learn more about how to run the test.

Kind Regards,
Amin
