Each time someone reports this problem, I test the link they quote on my own installation and it works fine. This is making it rather hard to get to the bottom of the problem!!

It's straightforward to tweak the links_linkbit template to show all links regardless of whether they test ok or not.

for example, find the sequence

PHP Code:

<if condition="$linkstatus<=0">
$linkname (not available)
</if> 


and replace with

PHP Code:

<if condition="$linkstatus<=0">
<a href="local_links.php?action=jump&id=$linkid" target="_blank">$linkname</a> (maybe broken)
</if> 


This may fix your problem.
