Draft: Issue #180
This URL validation makes use of the mkdocs plugin htmlproofer
and is set up in mkdocs.yml
.
It is configured so that no warnings will be generated for the URLs that return html error code 504
or -1
, as these are usually temporary issues.
There are some "false positive" warnings of bad urls, i.e. valid URL returned with html error code. I assume it's related to the Bot header that is generated by the plugin to require website content. To tackle this, a white list is made where the URLs in the list are ignored in the validation.
