RB Internal Links v2.0.14

A mini maintenance release addressing a shortfall in the WordPress shortcode parser.

Unfortunately, the WordPress Shortcode API can’t successfully process the following:

[intlink id="1" /]
Normal content
[intlink id="2"]Link content[/intlink]

OR

[intlink id="1"][/intlink]
Normal content
[intlink id="2"]Link content[/intlink]

To circumvent this, where users require no link text (to display the post title), the plugin will now accept the string {{empty}} as the link content like so:

[intlink id="1"]{{empty}}[/intlink]
Normal content
[intlink id="2"]Link content[/intlink]

I submitted a bug report here, unfortunately, it remains unfixed at the date of this post.
