About RockIt Link Health Monitor
From the official readme · v1.1.1Description
RockIt Link Health Monitor crawls your WordPress site for broken links automatically — no external service, no API keys, no monthly fee.
How it works:
- Crawls your site page by page in the background using WP-Cron — no timeout issues on large sites
- Two-tier link checking: full HTTP verification for all standard links, automatic manual-check flag for social/bot-protected domains (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, X/Twitter and more)
- Results appear in a filterable admin table — filter by Broken, Manual Check, OK, or search by URL
- Optional email report sent automatically when the crawl finishes
- Export results to CSV at any time
Key features:
- No Python, no Playwright, no external dependencies — pure PHP/WordPress
- Background crawling via WP-Cron — leave the page and come back
- Configurable: max pages, external link checking, excluded domains
- One-click CSV export
- Clean, fast admin UI with live progress bar

Frequently asked questions
Does this require any API keys or external services?
No. Everything runs on your WordPress server using standard PHP and WordPress functions.
Will it slow down my site while crawling?
Crawling runs in the background via WP-Cron in batches of 10 pages every 30 seconds, so the impact on your site is minimal.
Why are social media links flagged as “manual-check” instead of broken or OK?
Sites like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and others block automated HTTP requests and always return an error code — even for perfectly valid links. Flagging them as manual-check rather than broken prevents false positives.
Can I stop a crawl midway?
Yes — click Stop Crawl at any time. Results so far are preserved in the table.
How do I exclude certain subdomains?
Go to Link Monitor → Settings and add the domains to exclude, one per line (e.g. maps.example.com).
