Check/fix internal broken links

Closed Posted Oct 12, 2015 Paid on delivery

I have recently migrated a website from Blogger to the Squarespace. I hired someone to do it and she, unfortunately, did not finish the job.

Many links throughout the blog have an extra string of [url removed, login to view] attached before them so whenever someone clicks on them they land to 404 error page. For example:

[url removed, login to view]

ave talked to Squarespace support and they say that it is “connected to Blog posts with titles that contain extra formatting, like the additions of <em> -- which could be why the urls were imported strangely and others weren't.”

According to Squarespace support there is no automatic way to fix all of them at once: “I can let out product development team know that it would be a good idea to be able to alter imported links/ urls all in one go though. It could help avoid some issues in the future… I'll let them know that this has caused some inconvenience and they'll look into the feasibility of creating a bulk update option for Text links or even a function to find broken links automatically. In the meantime, yes you will need to manually update the links.”

The solution they suggest is to fix all of these links manually which means you’ll have to edit all the links throughout the blog to remove that extra [url removed, login to view] from the beginning of such links. For example:

[url removed, login to view]

will be edited to:

[url removed, login to view]

Thank you!
