Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Snagbane Link Scanner

Because a firewall-blocked response usually won't change no matter how many times an automated tool retries it -- the firewall is rejecting the checker, not reporting a real outage. Flagging it as "blocked, likely fine" tells you it's worth a quick manual look in a real browser, rather than an automatic "fix this" alarm for a page that's actually working.

No. Checks run in small batches on WordPress's background cron, separate from any page a visitor loads.

No. Link Scanner only reports verdicts; it never edits your post content or removes links on its own.

They're automatically cleaned up from the tracked list a set number of days after no longer being referenced anywhere, so the report doesn't accumulate stale entries forever.

Whatever WordPress is set to. Translations for German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Dutch, and Polish ship with the plugin; every other locale falls back to English. If a community translation for your language exists on translate.wordpress.org, WordPress uses that instead -- language packs take priority over the files bundled here, so contributing there improves the plugin for everyone rather than fighting with it. The verdict explanation in the "Why" column follows the language of whoever is reading the screen, not the language the check ran under. An administrator whose profile language is Polish sees Polish explanations even on a site running in German.
