Bogus errors / Need copy and delete options for results #724

Open erictreelight opened 7 years ago

erictreelight commented 7 years ago
  1. I need the ability to select a collection of errors and copy them into a file where I can delete items as they are fixed. Alternatively, I need the ability to delete items from the list you found. Or mark them fixed so I can keep my place as I work through the list.

  2. The bogus errors occur when checking a WordPress site. One of the online tools showed me 103 broken links, but wouldn't let me copy them to work on them. So I downloaded your tool.

Your program found 1143 "broken" links. But for every page on my site, 8 of them were for social-media links. Your tool renders most of them as whatsapp://send?text=....title...http://...url....

There are also mailto:// social links, and wp-json/oembed?url=... links that I suspect are ok (but I'm not sure).

Clicking the column header lets me sort them, which is nice. But again, I need the ability to select a range of items and delete them all, to produce a manageable list. Then (back to #1), I need the ability to delete items as they are fixed, or mark them fixed, or copy that set to another program that will let me work with the list.
