Xenu doesn't allow to change the priority. The 0.8 value comes from the
google documentation. It is your job to edit the file before submitting
it to google. Only you, as a human, knows what is important for you.

I have slighly updated the Xenu FAQ:
http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html

There's now a section "35. Any Spyware, Adware, Malware?". Please
contact me directly ( tilman at snafu dot de ) if there's poor grammar,
or if something might be misunderstood.

No.

You'll have to do a rescan from scratch.

Good news:
As of today, Yahoo Search no longer "warns" about my site.

Use the search feature. Press the binoculars symbol in the toolbar, or
Ctrl-F on the keyboard, then enter ".asp".

I will be meeting with a few content folk for our Web site this week
to discuss how best to use Xenu.

I have my own "rules of thumb I'll be sharing," but does anyone have
any favorite "tips and tricks" (or can point me to a Web site) so that
I can offer up more than my own opinion about this awesome tool?

Much appreciation in advance.

As well as IDing missing pages or erroneous URLs, Xenu is also a
useful way of discovering all the public email addresses on a site,
either for mailing to, or for correcting or obfuscating.

Xenu is also a good test of the maximum bandwidth of your internet
connection using a fast site. Open your Task Manager and the
Networking tab and watch.

Now if could just run javascript enough to decode URLs....

Peace, tOM

The current beta

is now able to understand the ID= component in a HTML tag (which is
meant to replace <a name="anchor"></a>.

According to
http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html
the current (non beta) version is 1.2j.

The current beta
http://home.snafu.de/tilman/tmp/xenubeta.zip
is able to detect loops in redirections; these will be noted in the
report (but not in the Xenu window).

You can test this with these URLs (from the guy who asked for the
feature, so maybe he will remove the URLs soon)

Maybe I am doing this wrong,
but after I generate a report using Xenu (1.2J) - I fix a bunch of
the broken links, and then select "retry broken links" from the menu
pulldown (Ctrl-R).

Xenu doesn't remove the links that I just fixed from the list.
I have to do a complete rescan of the entire site again.

is Xenu rescanning a cached copy of the broken link pags ?

why would the list not shrink to remove the links I've fixed ?

thanks

Yes, a rescan from scratch.

No

>why would the list not shrink to remove the links I've fixed ?

Because it's not enough to do CTRL-R. That is only useful if broken
links are due to a network problem or a broken host.

I have added about 400 new pages to my 50,000 page site. Do I also
need to do a complete rescan? It takes about hour and half to do the
scan with a 34 thread count.

It appears xenu is missing some pages also. I should have around
52,000 pages. I have hit the retry broken links several times but it
hasn't found any additional pages...

Any idea on how to find the missing pages? My site is very well
inter-linked, so there shouldn't be an issue with that...

Site is - http://www.vacation-rental-wonderland.com/

FYI: I just upgraded the database server. We had talked last month
about having trouble with timed out links.

Tell me what page Xenu is missing, and from what page it is linked, that
is "known" by Xenu. Maybe that "new" Page is linked through javascript?

The answer would be to use Xenu. But you say that it doesn't count all
pages.... so no solution.

I've installed the beta version 1.2k. Why are email addresses now
displayed as mailto:example.com rather than mailto:someone@...?

Hi Michael

When you use 'retry broken links' it only retries the actual URLs that
were broken; it doesn't recheck the original page that contained the
broken link.

Tara

Weird. I'll investigate this.

Use the "wildcard" version, it allows to use expressions like

"*jpg" instead of URLs.

"Invalid path" usually means that it is a directory, not a file.

You might want to activate the option "list local directories" in the
advanced options.
