Doxygen now allows to link md files to other md files with regular markdown syntax: How do I link between markdown documents in doxygen?

I have the following file structure:

MyDir/README.md
MyDir/Docs/other.md

Linking from README.md to other.md is straigforward:

[My link](Docs/other.md)

However linking from other to Readme is not working:

[My back link](README.md)

Since doxygen generates its links relative to where it is run, and I am running doxygen on MyDir, that should be the correct relative path. I also tried [My back link](../README.md)

Just in case, but no luck.

Which version of doxygen did you use? I tried the current doxygen version (1.8.18) and it looks to me that it is working. – albert May 20 '20 at 09:06
Seems I am using 1.8.13 – Makogan May 20 '20 at 20:45
In the master version on github a fix has been made (https://github.com/doxygen/doxygen/pull/7790) maybe this is of interest to this question as well. – albert May 22 '20 at 17:11
I will try it out when it gets merged – Makogan May 22 '20 at 19:50
It is already merged. – albert May 23 '20 at 08:18
