 * This is a great plugin. I’ve been looking for something exactly like this. The
   only thing I can’t get it to do is use image as the link.
 * As far as I can tell, you can only wrap text in the anchor. Perhaps, an alternate
   syntax could be added. Such as:
 * [link id=’123′]my link text[/link]
    and [link id=’123′]<img src=”pic.jpg”/>[/
   link]
 * Thanks for making this plugin.

 * According to the plugin’s code, it can handle the “[link id=’123′]<img src=”pic.
   jpg”/>[/link]” formatting, but the content is HTML escaped by the plugin’s code
   as well, so the <img> tag doesn’t render.
 * I wonder why.

 * It appears WordPress 3.1 has internal linking support built in. So I guess this
   plugin is no longer necessary.

 * As a matter of fact the plugin is **still** necessary. The internal linking support
   of WP 3.1 is just a way of browsing through your articles, it links posts via
   their _possibly changing_ permalinks. This plugin links posts via their static
   IDs.

 * +1 for supporting the [link id=’X’]My link text[/link] syntax.
