Hi @simonavshalom
I hope you’re well today!
If you are using recent version of Broken Link Checker plugin – which version of engine are you using in it, the “BLC 2.0 Beta” or the “Broken LInks (Old)” one?
There’s a significant difference in how they work. The new one scans the site just like e.g. search engine crawler would do so it should pick up links if they are publicly available. The old engine, however, may not be able to even see some of the links if they are added in a way that makes the “invisible” directly via WordPress core “the_content” filter.
So the questions are:
– are you using the BLC 2.0 engine or “Broken Links (old)” engine in plugin?
– is it that plugin doesn’t detect those links as broken or it doesn’t see them at alkl for you
– if it doesn’t “see” them at all – is it skipping all YT URLs or only these specific ones?
Also:
– could you please share an example URL so we could test it?
– and, possibly, share an URL of the page on your site where those YT links are (so we could take a look how they are placed in page source)?
Best regards,
Adam
