CQ5 “disable” linkcheker
Linkcheker it’s a very useful functionality that highlight to the author eventual broken links within, for example, a RichText widget. However when integrating already existent web application behind apache, there’s the need to “disable” completely it.
We won’t go to disable it properly but configuring it in a way that for him all links are not to be checked.
In CQ5.4, go into the Felix console and click con components (http://<server>:<port>/system/console/components) and search for: com.day.cq.rewriter.linkchecker.impl.LinkCheckerImpl. Click on the wrench (settings) and in the link check override patterns add the following regex (using the “+” button): ^.*$.
Save and refresh the page in the author.
This will save the settings into the file crx-quickstart/launchpad/config/com/day/cq/rewriter/linkchecker/impl/LinkCheckerImpl.config.
If you want to set the config into the CRX repository (so it can be exported/imported via package manager) go to /libs/cq/linkchecker/config/com.day.cq.rewriter.linkchecker.impl.LinkCheckerImpl using Content Explorer and edit the property service.check_override_patterns adding the regex previously mentioned.
Easy peasy! 
hi edivaD,
any tips about FF4 & Chrome compatibility?
Does someone already working on that?
Cheers
G.
FF4 has just been released. So for the official support we have to wait for the next release at least.
About chrome and others I don’t have any official answers other that pointing to the Technical Requirements
However, as far as I know, the supported browser list is only for the author instances. The published site one, is up to you and how you develop your site.
For 5.4 you need to add one more attribute – service.special_link_patterns = .*
