 ## API
 
-### markdownLinkExtractor(markdown)
+### markdownLinkExtractor(markdown, checkAnchors = false)
 
 Parameters:

+* `anchors` if anchors should also be extracted.

-* an array containing the URLs from the links found.
+* an object with the following properties:

+## Upgrading to v5.0.0
+
+- anchor link extraction reintroduced - be careful if you upgrade from version <`3.x` as the `extended` parameter got removed but now there is the `checkAnchors` parameter in place.
+
+Code that looked like this:
+
+```
+const links = markdownLinkExtractor(str);
+```
+
+Should change to this:
+
+```
+const { links } = markdownLinkExtractor(str);
+```
+
 ## Upgrading to v4.0.0
 
 - anchor link extraction no longer supported
