Blank Image AltText does not get captured by this plugin

If you use a blank image alt text, such as

![](my-image.png)

The plugin will not scan that link. This is due to the expectation that there will be text inside all links.

Support for empty alt text images in markdown editors is pretty ubiquitous, so I would expect that functionality.

To interested developers, since this project seems unmaintained at this point, and had a few bugs that were preventing me from using it in production, I have created a replacement plugin, mkdocs-ezlinks-plugin.

It is currently in alpha while I sort out some minor bugs and add a few additional feature enhancements.

The following issues are addressed in mkdocs-ezlinks-plugin

  • #2 Add more supported file types
  • #6 Incorrect links between pages that are more than two levels deep
  • #10 Add support for [[file]] and [[file#title]]
  • #13 Blank Image ALtText does not get captured by this plugin
  • #15 Assume that no extension means markdown
