PhilB Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 I've been trying to add clickthrough URL's to some images on my site. I can add a clickthrough URL to an external site to an image in the settings tab for that image, however I can't find any way to make this clickthrough open in a new window when it is clicked. I don't really want visitors to leave my site when they click on a an external link that is on an image - such as the Apple Music logo for example. I have a couple of other sites on different templates and this isn't an issue on those templates. Is there any way I can get external links that are on images to open in a new window on the Wexley template? I like the main gallery style in Wexley for the particular site I have on it (a photography portfolio site) which I why I chose Wexley rather than a different template for this site. Is there a different template that has the Wexley style galleries but not the issue with clickthrough URL's not opening in a new window? Many thanks Phil Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) The answer is no. All templates have the same image functions for external links. I take it the option to "open in new window" toggle is not available in the image editor where you want to use a link? Single image blocks have that option toggle, images in a gallery do not. Also if lightbox is enabled for an image block the url link option is removed. Edited July 11, 2022 by derricksrandomviews PhilB 1 Link to comment
