# Errors with certain websites

 * New York Times. All links = 403 Forbidden
 * Example: [https://www.nytimes.com/2006/01/26/politics/in-address-bush-is-seen-avoiding-large-initiatives.html](https://www.nytimes.com/2006/01/26/politics/in-address-bush-is-seen-avoiding-large-initiatives.html)
 * However, the notice is false. You can access the web without problems.
 * I have checked at [https://www.dnsqueries.com/es/check_http_headers.php](https://www.dnsqueries.com/es/check_http_headers.php)
   and the result is
 * HTTP CODE = HTTP / 1.1 200 OK
 * And this happens with several websites (another example: crisisgroup.org)
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ferrors-with-certain-websites%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@almendron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/almendron/)
 * I hope you are doing well.
 * I checked the shared link and got a 200 status in the plugin.

 * Broken Link Checker ping the website using your server IP, it is possible the
   NY time service is blocking this request.
 * You can mark the links as false positive and increase the “Check each link” in
   WordPress > Settings > Link Checker to prevent a website firewall to block future
   requests.
 * Let us know if you have any additional question.

 * Hi [@almendron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/almendron/)
 * Thank you for the update.
 * All the URLs from NY are getting the same result in the plugin or some does get
   200 status?

 * How? Do not know
 * Maybe a temporary NYT server error

 * Hi [@almendron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/almendron/)
 * Thank you for the update.
 * It could be any specific head block from the NYT, the BLC does set some conditional
   headers and if the server block it could not block the entire IP but only the
   specific header, however, as we tested on our site using the plugin and got the
   200 status it is hard to tell what happened.
 * Best Regards
