 * I use Easy Update Manager. I’ve installed 2.6 and told EUM to block updates. 
   Hopefully, it will.

 * Thank the developers for that.
 * Not clear from Google’s description whether I should be changing the nofollow
   to sponsored or adding sponsored – nofollow previously recommended & still acceptable
   though sponsored if preferred.
 * It would be helpful, for existing users with lots of affiliate links, to add 
   attribute settings as bulk actions.

 * [@jpnl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jpnl/) – I suggested adding a setting
   for my issue with 503 codes. I decided to “patch” the code until the setting 
   is implemented. Here’s what I did (change 503 to 403):
 * In the file modules/checkers/http.php
    line 120
 *  $good_code = ( ( $http_code >= 200 ) && ( $http_code < 400 ) ) || ( 401 === 
   $http_code ) || (503 === $http_code);
    return ! $good_code;

 * I made the code change and now I don’t need to manually “not broken” all the 
   503s that frequently appear.

 * Thanks for the reply. I may need to find another solution. The most important
   links on the site are the Amazon affiliate ones and the reason I use the plugin
   is to keep the links up-to-date when product links are truly broken by Amazon.
   Just now I scrolled through the All list of links and found/fixed 22 with the
   503 code.

 * An older issue seems to have resurfaced with 5.3.1 (it might have started earlier).
   I currently have no broken links reported but at least one of my links has the
   strikeout. Please fix soon. Thanks

 * It was working for me until my hosting service automatically updated my site 
   to 4.9.9 (it says has been tested to 4.8.8). I had to deactivate it because it
   was treating the href form “Link to an element with a specified id within the
   page (like href=”#top”)” as a broken link, plus those links were displaying with
   a “line-through”. It may be that an optional feature got turned on. I hope that
   the developer will test with it, and also make it work with 5.0, and provide 
   an update soon.
