Hi @forcesail,
Trust you are doing good and thank you for reaching out to us.
It looks like you have already tried using the local version of the plugin. Could you try the Cloud version as well and let us know if that helps?

Hello, I’m sorry for delay with the responce.
I didn’t want to pickup the subject with the Cloud version of the plugin but as you insists:
1) When the v.2 of the plugin released I turned to Cloud version created an account on your site.
2) the Cloud version overloaded my site. It almost stopped to work.
3) I started to receive tonnes of spam from your site.
4) so, I had to delete my account on your site but even after that I have being receiving spam from you (but les and less). So I understood that it’s a fishing site spreading under plugin’s umbrella. No I see that it’s not. But, it rise other question to you, how you store email when user ask to remove his data.
5) The local version works quite fine although it produce quite good amount of false negative reports but it’s acceptable if not to pay attention at it reports at all.
6) I can’t say that the plugin is really useful – it hasn’t found a one really broken link during many years but let’s work.
7) How it is currently searching link – it makes the plugin useless. All that is necessary to do – just to add 1 line of code to satisfy of the coding idea of WP. Actually I can hack it by myself following the licence.
8) The cloud version is danger, so I definirte won’t turn to it.
I’m sorry that re bug report turned to something wider you you requested it. Sorry.
As well I advise you to check php errors of the plugin:
(All errors starts from your plugin (one error tree I expanded to show it)
