@AddonsLab Why I am getting error in footer Link Checker by AddonsLab: invalid license detected.? I have expired the new Version download but this should not stop my license for use?
Click to expand...

Hello!

For some reason, the license was suspended instead of being marked as "expired". I have modified license details now, please open product settings and save it again to re-activate the license.

We will check soon why the license was suspended to prevent this in future.

Thank you!

This generated 1 overdue invoice(s) for my account but I will re-new my license when need. So this necessary make a invoice?

The invoice is generated automatically, it is up to you to decide if you want to pay it and get the extended support of upgrades or now.

Thank you!
 
Suggestion: After now using this for quite some months, I'm finding a single issue in relation to private forums, most likely that a bot cannot access them to check link validity. I think a nice addition would be to either add a login for the user agent so it can access private areas on checking OR add the addition to exclude private forums from link check, as when it finds a link in a private forum pointing to another private forum, it marks it as 404, when the link is perfectly ok.

Thank you for the suggestion. I assume you mean the internal links only, and not the ones posted to other websites. The status code of private forums is not 404 but 403 (at least it should be), and that's the reason 403 status code is considered as "valid" in our product because restricted area access does not mean a broken link. So, if you filter your links by Internal only and 403 status code, you will see these links to your private forums and threads. If you see links with status code 404 that might mean the links are actually broken or for some reason (an add-on?) private area URLs return 404 error page.

Given that there is a way to differentiate between broken links and links to private forums, we don't see it necessary to implement such complex feature as automatic login using username/password.

Let us know if you think we missed something and we will review your request again.

Thank you!
 
Ok, then this is a fault then I think. I understand your reasoning about this.

The 404 internal links showing as broken go to our contact us forum, which has the permission set so people can only view their own threads, not others. No add-on. Just a default XF permission that causes links in that forum to show as 404 and not 403, thus causing the issue.

We tested this one more time and confirmed, that private node returns 403 response code and not 404. Here is an example on our demo board - https://xf2.addonslab.com/index.php?threads/test-in-a-private-forum.170428/ Visiting the URL as a guest or registered user (user1 / userpass for login) you will see it returns 403 response. Visiting as an admin you will see the forum. So it is likely that links detected as 404 are actually broken and you may consider to check in more details what makes these links invalid.

Thank you!

Sorry for not being able to work on this product yet. When we first released the product we ensured months of continued support and improved it a lot (thanks to your active participation in reporting bugs as well), so now the add-on seems to work very well as we don't get any bug reports anymore. Its development is definitely not over and all the features we promised to be implemented will be implemented. We will consider at least one of the features mentioned above to be implemented asap (in coming 2-3 days).

Thank you!

No, unfortunately, the icons are either enabled for all URL or they are disabled, you can't disable them based on what is their content - a usual text or an image.

Yes, you can install it on XenForo 2.0.x

Once the invoice is paid we will apply your upgrade. It will not be from today but from the day when your support/upgrades expired.

Thank you!
