### About this Plugin

Automatically monitor your WordPress site for broken links and missing images, so you can fix them proactively and protect your SEO.

### Static WordPress Challenge

Broken-link scanning, dashboard tools, alerts, and link management run in WordPress/admin and do not transfer to the static site. Logged-out visitors will receive the normal rendered content without editor-only highlighting; verify the the_content virtual-post callback if that feature is enabled, since visitor-facing dynamically generated content may not be captured by a static export.
