Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Dragon Broken Links

No. There is no cloud account, no API key, no per-link credits, and nothing is reported to Dragon Core or anyone else. The only outbound traffic is the request your server makes to each external link to see whether it still works (see "External services" above).

No. Every unique URL is checked once per cycle, however many posts link to it, and there is no cap on links, posts or scans.

Broken - failed on three separate checks with a hard error (404, 410, no such domain, connection refused). Suspected - failed once; it is re-checked before it counts as broken. Needs review - the site answered but ambiguously (403, 429, timeout, server error), which is often bot-blocking rather than a dead page; open it, and dismiss it if it works.

Some servers answer automated requests with a 403, 429 or a timeout even though the page is fine for real visitors. Rather than cry wolf, Dragon Broken Links flags those for you to decide, and never counts them as broken automatically.

No. External links are checked in small, throttled batches within a fixed time budget, and each unique URL is checked only once. Internal links are resolved from the database rather than by making requests to your own site.

Yes - <img> sources, plus iframes, video, audio and embeds in your posts and pages. Internal images are checked against the uploads folder (including resized variants); external ones are requested like any other link. Gallery thumbnails and srcset variants of an image that exists are not checked separately.

Links are re-checked automatically in the background (every 15 minutes, working through every link daily, weekly or monthly - your choice under Settings), and a post is re-scanned whenever you save it. Scheduled full scans with history and CSV export are part of Pro.

Yes. Every public post type is scanned by default - posts, pages, WooCommerce products and any custom post type your theme or plugins register. Untick the ones you do not want under Settings → Content scanned.

Not on its own: links in comments and custom fields are covered by Dragon Broken Links Pro.

Yes. If Broken Link Checker's data is still in your database, Settings → Import from Broken Link Checker carries your dismissed links over so you do not have to re-triage them. Nothing is removed from Broken Link Checker. My scan does not seem to run on its own. Background scanning uses WP-Cron, which only runs when your site gets traffic. On a quiet site, click Scan now, or run wp dragon-broken-links scan from WP-CLI.
