Link Checker for XenForo 2.x by AddonsLab 4.1.1

In this version we have implemented attachment validity check. Attachments added to post text can now be checked and will be reported as not found if the attachment with that ID does not exist any longer. XenForo 2.x removes the attachments from post text as soon as the attachments are deleted, but your board might have broken attachments since XenForo 1.x or broken attachments might be caused by mass SQL deletion of attachments or invalid imported data from another software.

In this version we have also fixed the bug with "403 Forbidden" links be considered as valid (as designed) but appearing in Moderation Queue as invalid. On installation the status of these links will be changed to "449 Retry With", and using Admin -> Tools -> Links -> Rebuild Data page you can targetly re-check these URLs, which will validate them again and remove them from the moderation queue. Just make sure to uncheck the checkbox "Enable Local Cache" to ensure the URLs are re-checked.

Another bug fixed is that in Rebuild Data page unchecking the checkbox "Enable Local Cache" had no effect and the cache was still used.

In this version, we have implemented support for SoundCloud media embeds. Please note, that SoundCloud blocks the requests coming from unknown browsers, so you need to use some modern browser's name in product's settings as a value of the option "User Agent". An example value for a Chrome browser could be:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.103 Safari/537.36

This release implements cookie support for remote requests, which solves the issues with remote servers, that put cookies during the first request to their server and require the agent to accept the cookies, otherwise, an infinite redirect to the same URL happens. This was implemented to fix the issue with box.com URLs.

This version also fixes a bug with link statuses not being shown immediately after the post edited/saved via AJAX. Another bug with batch update script was reproduced, that would cause the script to run only for 100 links and ask the admin to re-submit form again to continue.

With this version, we implemented additional protective measures against server overload. Now server load will be checked before each link is checked to prevent the overload.

We have also improved link status checking algorithm, which will make it much faster especially the check for big files.
