Last Updated: 3/11/2026

This guide covers how to add, edit, organize, and manage your links in LinkAce.

Quick Add (from dashboard)
Paste a URL in the Quick Add box and click “Add Quick”. LinkAce automatically fetches the title and description. The link uses your default visibility setting.

Full Add Form
For more control, click Links → Add Link. You can:

  • Set visibility (private, internal, public)
  • Assign lists and tags (create new ones on the fly)
  • Add notes
  • Customize title and description
  • Disable automated link checks

Bookmarklet
Save links from any browser with one click. Find the bookmarklet in your user settings.

Click any link to view its details, then click Edit. You can:

  • Update the URL, title, or description
  • Change visibility
  • Add or remove lists and tags
  • Add notes
  • Toggle link monitoring on/off

Organizing with Lists and Tags

Lists group links by broad categories. Examples: “Web Development Tools”, “Recipes”

Tags add flexible labels. Examples: “tutorial”, “urgent”, “open-source”

To create a list or tag:

  1. Click Lists or Tags in the sidebar
  2. Click Add List or Add Tag
  3. Set visibility (private, internal, or public)

To assign lists and tags to a link:

  • Edit the link and select from existing lists/tags, or create new ones inline
  • Lists and tags marked internal or public can be used by all users

LinkAce automatically checks HTTP(S) links on a regular basis. Each link has a status:

  • OK (green) — Link is reachable
  • Moved (yellow) — Link redirected or moved
  • Broken (red) — Link is unreachable

View broken links from the dashboard by clicking the “broken links” badge in the statistics panel.

To disable monitoring for a specific link:
Edit the link and check “Disable automated link checks”. Useful for internal URLs or links behind authentication.

Quick Search (dashboard)
Enter a term to search titles, URLs, and descriptions.

Advanced Search
Click Links → Search to filter by:

  • Tags and lists
  • Visibility
  • Status (OK, moved, broken)
  • Date range

Bulk Actions

From the links list, select multiple links using checkboxes, then:

  • Add tags or lists in bulk
  • Change visibility
  • Delete multiple links

Internet Archive Backups

If enabled in settings, LinkAce automatically sends HTTP(S) links to the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine for long-term archiving. Private links are only archived if “Archive private links” is enabled.
