Hi there @strogan
That’s very odd. If the plugin is not active, no plugin events should occur at all.
Did you perhaps receive an email very shortly after having removed the plugin from the site?
If so, it is possible the email cron had already triggered before you deactivated the plugin, and the email may have just been delayed by connection/ISP bottlenecks, or stuck in your client’s queue, etc.
Please do let us know if you receive any more emails since you posted this, and we’ll dig in with you.
Cheers!

@wpmudevsupport16 I was getting emails for a month with deactivated plugin
Hi @strogan
This is not expected
Can you please install the wp control plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-crontrol/ and verify if any Cron was left https://monosnap.com/file/ZmFaF2Hsp6rL6jEYWy6FIBYJuUG6ff ?
If so, remove the old cronjobs for the Broken Link Checker.

Hi @strogan
Thank you for the update
In this case, it shouldn’t trigger any event and could be any delayed email, just in case can you confirm no code was left in wp-content > plugins > broken-link-checker or wp-content > mu-plugins related to Broken Link Checker?
If the issue persists, try to reinstall the plugin, disable the notifications and remove it back.
Let us know the result you got.
Best Regards

Hello @strogan ,
We haven’t heard from you for some time now, so it looks like you don’t have more questions for us.
Feel free to re-open this ticket if needed.
