“There are many broken links”

  • I have this plugin installed on a client’s website (in Farsi language) and it has notified us of many broken links.

    When I checked the last 20 supposedly-broken links from the settings, I found that some are, in fact, false positives. This seems to be due to the plugin not correctly decoding URL strings containing non-Latin characters. For example, the following URL is flagged as broken:

    /wp-content/uploads/2022/03/%C3%98%C2%B3%C3%98%C2%B1%C3%99%C2%85%C3%98%C2%A7%C3%9B%C2%8C%C3%98%C2%B4%C3%9B%C2%8C.png

    and is displayed on browser as follows:

    However, when decoded, this URL is valid:
    /wp-content/uploads/2022/03/???????.png

    So it seems that the plugin is not handling URL encoding/decoding properly for non-Latin characters, resulting in “many broken links” notification from the plugin.

    Could you please look into this issue? thanks in advance.

    Hello, @vandanojan

    We appreciate your patience.

    To fix the current issue, please access our “Free Plugin” tab, proceed to “Settings,” and enable the option for “Do not log media links.”

    This is a temporary measure until we release a fix for the decoding problem in our next update.

    Thank you for your understanding, and have a wonderful day.

    Sincerely,
