In this list section I would like to make each image clickable and link to the relevant page

Take a look at the solution I published here: Make Squarespace list items clickable.

This takes the link that you've assigned to each CTA button and applies it to the entire list item. This means that users can click the image or any other aspect of an item to trigger the CTA action.

 there a way to make this code work to open a lightbox? Thanks

You will need to use a plugin to enable lightbox first (Maybe enable on button, then use code to make image clickable, use button link)

This works great but there are certain pages I need to disable this on. Any suggestions?

You try moving the code to Page Settings > Advanced > Code Injection (for pages where you want list section clickable)

That didn't seem to work. I'm assuming it's because this code usually goes in the footer injection and on pages you can only put this code into the header injection?

Is there a way to hide the button

You can hide buttons with CSS, like the example I have provided below. The exact CSS may depend on your site settings and whether you want to hide all buttons.

/* Hide all list item buttons */
.list-item-content__button.sqs-button-element--primary.sqs-block-button-element {
  display: none;
}

This is perfect, thanks so much. I only have one List section on my site so this is all I need. Really appreciate it.

I'm not seeing this on other sites, so it's difficult to say why. That said, there are multiple snippets of code and the site is attempting to load three different versions of jQuery 😳 so it may be worth tidying those up and checking again?

@paul2009 do you know of a way to make the links open in a new tab? (I set it within the button itself but it still opens in the same tab)

Thanks!!

did anyone figure this out? @paul2009

I tried 2 scripts, one from here which looks like gibberish but it works:

https://sf.digital/squarespace-solutions/make-squarespace-list-items-clickable

and one from here:

https://www.primitusconsultancy.co.uk/blog/how-to-make-squarespace-list-items-clickable

but both scripts ignore Squarespace's Open-link-in-new-window settings.
Is there a solution to having both clickable list images and being able to open the links in new windows?

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks for checking in on me. Appreciated.

Problem is solved: the solution from @fncreativeconsole is the only one that respects the Squarespace "open-in-new-window" settings. Their script here again:

<!--Make list items clickable-->
<script>
    // JavaScript code to link list-item-media to the closest button
    document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
        var listItems = document.querySelectorAll('.list-item');

        listItems.forEach(function(listItem) {
            var media = listItem.querySelector('.list-item-media');
            var closestButton = listItem.querySelector('.list-item-content__button');

            if (media && closestButton) {
                media.addEventListener('click', function() {
                    closestButton.click(); // Trigger button click when list item media is clicked
                });
            }
        });
    });
</script>
