Has a broken link notice in the 'my account' list of hubs. However, on checking for that (yes, in edit mode), there are no links at all, let alone any broken ones!

But, it's the only one, yet when I checked in edit mode, no links at all showed up; was it auto-disabled by a pro-bot?
I had that problem a few weeks ago. I deleted and created the link again to get rid of the notice. I just wanted the message gone. I am not sure if there is any penalty since the link was actually not broken. #bugs
I have the same problem on one of my Hubs. I'm just ignoring it.
I checked the only link in your Hub and yes, it is a good one, not broken at all.

Ok, this keeps happening to me. Well, two things with broken links. Both are annoying.1) There is a broken link warning; I go to edit the hub and fix or delete said link, and the broken link warning does not go away. I then re-check the entire hub, to make sure there was not more...

Apologies if this question is dealt with elsewhere, but I have a couple of broken link messages showing. I've investigated, and the link is still good. That is, you can visit the Hub that I linked to, and it's still there, no problems. You can even edit the link capsule, click...
