HTTPThe status returned (404, 500…)
Sessions / occurrencesHow many visits hit it

How it works #

  • Visitors’ browsers report failed links and resources; Opti-Behavior then verifies them from your server.
  • Recheck all now verifies again; fixed links close automatically.
  • Failures that could not be confirmed (usually ad blockers or privacy extensions) are counted separately, not listed as broken.

Fix #

  • Correct the link in the source page, or add a redirect (Rank Math, Redirection…).
  • Missing image: re-upload it or remove it.
  • Then click Recheck.
CaseFix
