Broken Link for "Nonces" in CSRF Section on WordPress Developer Documentation #1689

Open dhruvang21 opened 11 hours ago

dhruvang21 commented 11 hours ago

Issue Description

The link for the keyword "nonces" under the "Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)" section on the page leads to a 404 error page.

URL of the Page with the Issue

https://developer.wordpress.org/apis/security/common-vulnerabilities/#cross-site-request-forgery-csrf

Section of Page with the issue

The section titled "Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)" contains a broken link for the keyword "nonces."

Why is this a problem?

The broken link disrupts the flow of the documentation, leading users to an error page instead of providing them with crucial information about nonces, which is important for preventing CSRF attacks in WordPress.

Suggested Fix

The link for "nonces" should be updated to point to the correct page explaining the concept of nonces in WordPress security. The correct link could be: https://developer.wordpress.org/apis/security/nonces/.
