About the Extension

Broken Links Cost You More Than You Think

Every broken link in your online store is a missed opportunity: customers leave, trust declines, and search engines rank websites with numerous 404 errors less favorably. The problem is that as your product range grows and layouts change regularly, it quickly becomes difficult to keep track of where links are pointing to pages that no longer exist.

The Broken Link Checker takes care of this for you – fully automatically and in the background.

What the Plugin Checks

The plugin automatically scans the following every day:

Product and category descriptions
CMS layouts for products, categories, and landing pages
Standalone shop pages such as the legal notice, terms and conditions, or privacy policy

It also takes inherited and individually overridden layout content into account – a detail that many basic link checker tools overlook.

Your Benefits as a Shop Owner

Save time: No more manually clicking through hundreds of pages
Multi-channel support: Checks can be configured individually for each sales channel
Clear overview: See all broken links, including status code and location, with a direct link to the relevant section in the administration for quick correction
