Hi

The Data deletion option in Configuration | System is for log files, not for broken links.

have broken links from months ago

If you have fixed them, you should delete them right after you fixed them. If you have not fixed them, then there is no point in purging them because 4SEO will find them again very quickly.

Hi

The problem is google plus has caused a large amount of broken links, I have now removed google plus but have hundreds of pages of broken links to delete.

Hi

We do have adding a Purge Button on the roadmap, just not got there yet.

If you have a clear URL pattern here, you should exclude these URLs from the site analysis:

- Go to Pages | Settings | Site analysis

- Use the Excluded Domains or Excluded URLs field to exclude the Google Plus pages.

For instance, if all these URLs are on https://plus.google.com, enter "plus.google.com" in the Excluded Domains field.

If not the case, then try and find a URL pattern that you can exclude in the Excluded URLs field. But I think G+ was using a dedicated domain so you should be able to do that.

Then Go and delete all the broken links. They will not be considered for analysis and won't come back.

Best regards
