| Oct 10, 2023 at 14:26 | comment | added | Stephen Ostermiller♦ | My guess is that while most of your links are OK, there are probably a few that are not root-relative. Hopefully the crawler will help you figure out which ones they are. | |

| Oct 9, 2023 at 7:47 | comment | added | Robin | Thanks @StephenOstermiller for your input! Would be nuts if it was so easy. I checked the links and yes, they are relative, but with the full path starting from the root and starting with the slash. I guess, the editor just created a duplicate site structure for whatever reason. | |

I'm not exactly sure what the regex would be, but the likely cause of this is links that aren't "root relative." That is relative links that don't start with a slash. So on /abc/def/foo.html you might have a link like href=abc/ or href=./abc/ when it would be better to have href=/abc/.
