AEM disable linkchecker for specific links

This is something that comes up a LOT. There is also another good post on it here at wemblog.

Essentially you need to add one of the two classes to links:

x-cq-linkchecker=”valid” This will make the linkchecker mark it as valid no matter what.

x-cq-linkchecker=”skip” As implied, the linkchecker service will skip this link.

You should be able to add these classes to other tags, such as script tags, etc, that you have configured the linkchecker to examine.
