Hello. Imagine that on your Discourse forum, no external links are broken anymore. That’s right, your visitors would browse your site, click on external links, and never encounter the infamous 404 error again. This is what the WayBack Machine site and the WordPress editor offer in the form of a [plugin](https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/04/the-wayback-machine-debuts-a-new-plugin-designed-to-fix-the-internets-broken-links-problem/). So now, would this idea be useful for your Discourse sites? 😉
