Converter breaks hyperlinks and other external links by reformatting them as wikilinks. #12

Would it be possible to exclude external links from the conversion? Maybe an option to select which file types to apply the conversion to?

In my case, I wanted links to .MD and .PDF's to be converted to wikilinks, but not links to web addresses and external app links like: zotero://open-pdf/library/items/NNZIRZ5U?page=1.

The conversion from markdown to wiki links basically broke a few hundred external links and made them internal links pointing to nothing, so I switched back to markdown links. Thankfully, the conversion back worked perfectly.

+1 This is a major issue but it would appear this plugin has been abandoned so not much hope of getting it fixed. Uninstalling now before more damage done. Just easier to use a regex with VS Code.
