   Hi,

   I'm using the Broken Link Checker plugin by Janis Elsts.

   It's been working great and is such a useful tool for me. However, each time i try to edit the faulty URLs, it says "Something went wrong. The plugin failed to edit 1 instance(s) of this link."

   Am i doing something wrong or is there any problems with the plugin?

   Any help is much appreciated. Many thanks in advance :)

   You're probably not doing anything wrong. It's either a bug, or URL editing is not fully implemented for that particular type of link.

   Could you show me an example or two? (A link to a post that contains one of the broken links would be fine.)

   Hi whiteshadow, thank you for your quick reply :)

   I'm not sure if i can put the actual link here. This is my first time posting.

   Here's an example of what i'm trying to do:

   Broken Link - http://mysite.com/onepages/

   I'd like to remove the s on onepages and add a www to the link: http://www.mysite.com/onepage/

   Each time i try to edit, removing the s or adding the www, the error text above pops out. What can i do to change the url to the correct one?

   Many thanks :)

   Unfortunately, that still doesn't explain why editing would fail. Hmm.

   Well, in the worst case, you can still open the post that contains the link and fix the URL manually.

   Okay, I'll do that. Thanks whiteshadow :)
