## Deskripsi

Cute Broken Link Highlighter is a lightweight WordPress plugin that helps you identify
broken links directly in your post editor. No more publishing posts with dead links–
catch them before they go live!

#### Key Features

 * **Visual Link Highlighting** – Broken links are highlighted in red with a clear
   warning label
 * **Classic Editor Support** – Works seamlessly with the Classic Editor
 * **Gutenberg Compatible** – Full support for the Block Editor (Gutenberg)

   best practices

 2. Click the “Check Links” button in the Link Checker panel
 3. Broken links are instantly highlighted in red

 * Quickly navigate to posts that need fixing

   links
 * **Guest Post Review** – Verify links in guest posts before publishing

#### Technical Details

 * Uses WordPress HTTP API for link checking
 * Checks HTTP status codes (4xx and 5xx considered broken)
 * Follows redirects (up to 5 redirects)
 * 10-second timeout per link
 * Skips anchor links, mailto, tel, and javascript links
 * Supports both relative and absolute URLs

## Tanya Jawab

### Does this plugin slow down my site?

No! The plugin only runs when you manually check links in the editor or use the 
bulk scanner. It has zero impact on your frontend performance.

### Will it work with the Classic Editor?

Yes! The plugin fully supports both the Classic Editor and Gutenberg Block Editor.

### Can I scan all my posts at once?

Yes! Go to Tools > Link Scanner to scan all your posts and pages in bulk.

### Does it check external links?

Yes, the plugin checks both internal and external links.

### What types of links are checked?

The plugin checks all HTTP/HTTPS links. It skips anchor links (#), mailto:, tel:,
and javascript: links.

### How does it determine if a link is broken?

The plugin sends an HTTP HEAD request to each link and checks the response code.
Links returning 4xx or 5xx status codes are considered broken.

### Can I use this on a multisite network?

Yes, the plugin is multisite compatible. It must be activated on each site individually.

### Does it fix broken links automatically?

No, the plugin only identifies broken links. You’ll need to manually update or remove
them.

### Will highlights remain after I save the post?

No, highlights are temporary and only visible during the editing session. They won’t
appear on your published posts.

### Can I customize the timeout duration?

Currently, the timeout is set to 10 seconds per link. This can be modified in the
plugin code if needed.

### Does it store broken link data in the database?

No, the plugin does not store any data in the database. All checking is done in 
real-time.
