The link checker on Yurls you can check whether the links on your Yurl still work. Recently we extended the link checker. Not only the dead links are found, but also the links that still work, but a permanent redirect to another URL. To check these links can be useful because it is not always directed to a page or website of your choice. You can find the link checker under ‘settings’.

You can find the Link checker under ‘settings’. Click the link checker and order the links on your page to be checked. It takes some time before the process of link analysis has been completed, but usually within an hour you will find a list of dead links on your page. If many users simultaneously check their links it may take be a bit longer. The best you can do is to return later. If you quit Yurls, the process of link monitoring continues.

After checking the links you can customize (pencil) or remove (cross) the link.

Check the link first before you modify or delete!
After adjusting or removing, the link disappears from the list.

Not every link that is found is a dead link. If some working links ever again return to the list, then you can click the last icon. The link goes to a list of links that are excluded from the following link checks.

Go with your mouse on the icon behind the title of the box and select box copy:

Change the title if desired and select a page and a column and click ‘confirm’.

• Check ‘yes’ behind ‘Set Period?’
• Click on the icon to select a date
