Hi there,
We have multiple sub-sites that contain lot of references to documents that are placed in Library or workspace.
Over the period of time, many of the documents have been moved or replaced but links are not updated in the site leaving them as broken link.
we would need to fix such broken links. We dont have access to powerscripts or Central admin as of now to execute anything.
Kindly suggest possible solutions.
Thanks,
Chetan
This is a bit late but maybe it can help someone else.
We have a tool called “SharePoint Broken Link Manager“, it was written specifically for SharePoint to find and fix broken links, it uses CSOM and so does not need to be run on the server, Â
Where do these links manifest themselves ? In actual documents, or web content ? If the latter the best option is to update them with a script at source. Client Object Model ?? You can also use a redirecting (not rewriting) application such as that supplied with IIS, but this can get unwieldy and very confusing if you have loads. Best advice is to fix them at source 🙂 It’s a pain but you will be glad you did it. Shouldn’t be too hard, all you need is some rule file and some code.
