New Shortcode! – [ifnoimage][/ifnoimage] – Also, extra broken image detections added.

Hello, We’ve done a quick update that adds the following: Broken image detection In past circumstances, whenever we would use image generation shortcodes within our content postbody sometimes no image would be generated and this would cause a broken image to be left. Until now we’ve had to circumvent this issue by using 3rd  party broken image detection plugins, and luckily it happened so rarely that it was not too big of an issue. To better perfect our systems we now check for these broken images and remove them before publishing. You may have also noticed that now 3rd  party plugin shortcodes are previewable within BlogSense’s preview mode.   If no image is detected then… We also now have a shortcode called [ifnoimage][/ifnoimage] that, if used, checks the postbody to see if any images are present and if they are not then whatever is enclosed within the shortcode is included...
