Has anyone else had an issue with broken youtube links and there are none actually.
On my hubpages account area I have about three broken links, I tried to fix them but the Youtube videos that triggered these indications are actually working videos, is anyone else experiencing this. I know hubpages has glitches from time to time, but I just need to know if its only my account or others having such an issue.
Yep, had this issue as well. Also noticed lots of other people having this issue and someone pointed out how to fix it.
Just click on the broken links symbol next to your title in the statistics area, then click retest and it should go away.
Awesome answer bro, thanks Pete, I'll give that a try for sure, lets see what happens.
No problem! And thanks for the best answer selection!
It worked bro, you scored here big time as the best answer for sure, thanks man I owe you one.
Yup, had the same problem. Thanks for the answer Pete - I victoriously overcame the problem with your advice - my theme tune played in the background and I took a lap of victory around my living room. *inspired by the Olympics and can't fill the gap since they ended*
Thanks for bringing this up. I removed a video yesterday. I just checked and the video is still on Youtube. I'm glad I can put it back.
I have had the problem also. Sometimes retest works and sometimes I have to just get a replacement video.
Yes, I have within the past week or so. I just thought it had something to do with my computer, but I guess not. I just replaced it with another video.
Hey Faith, Check out Interpete's answer, he helped me fix my issue, and he definitely supplied me the best answer, I was amazed to learn of such info, and it was truly useful indeed. Hopefully you can use the info next time it happens as well.
Thanks, CloudExplorer, I will check it out. Blessings. In His Love, Faith Reaper
One thing you might consider is that the link is broken because the Youtube Uploader may have deleted it, broke violations on YouTube, etc. If you have broken links via that sight, then it's not on you to fix them. It is on you, though, to find a new video or include no video at all if the page is nonexistent anymore.

A little sybol has appeared on one of my hubs saying broken links. Do I have to fix this?

Okay, I've tried both firefox and google chrome, which usually work with redgage, but for some reason it's not allowing me to post up links to it regarding my current hubs. I don't know why. Has anyone else had this problem?

Is anyone else getting traffic from this site?nativeapp.toutiao.comI am getting traffic from it but I am not sure what the site is or if it's a new search engine of some kind. I do know it has something to do with a Chinese application. So I am wondering if this is a good or bad thing.

HP keeps wanting to not load all the way--the spinning circle rarely stops; the page freezes up and you can't navigate, and I keep seeing, "Shockwave flash has crashed" or "Shockwave plugin has stopped working" or the dreaded "Oh, snap! Something went wrong...

All of my incoming links in the stats section are now showing only one incoming link. Previously, some showed 5 links. Has anyone else noticed a loss of links?~Jen

I see that they recently made all their outbound links dofollow so there is even more value in posting your Hubs onto relevant interest categories. The site is similar to Pinterest but focused on interest communities instead of personal boards. Anyone can join a community and post...
