Some clickthrough links not working in Image Gallery block

Recommended Posts

My website landing page is setup as one big image gallery with thumbnail images linking to other individual pages. It's been working fine for years but recently has stopped directing my clickthrough URL links to the other pages. Image tabs in the Gallery just go to a slideshow now, which is not what I want. I've tried re-uploading the image files and changing the URL links to the web page addresses (instead of the clickthrough > content option) but it still won't work. Old links still seem to be fine but any new image links just go to slideshow.

 

Can anybody help me out here? I'm unable to share new work until I get this figured out.

 

Thanks

i have a similar issue.

It appears to me that even though SS provides the clickthrough field, they don't actually add the HTML link into the code.

Update 01/05/23

Please see Gallery page clickthrough URLs by template for which v7.0 templates have or don't have the clickthrough feature.

Hey thanks, @creedon . My website is publicly viewable at https://www.andrewhaener.com/ I just added a new image that's got this same problem happening. The images and links I was asking about initially resolved themselves after a few days for desktop access but they still don't work on mobile.

 

I'm running this code injection which I found on a forum posting in the gallery block gear. It's worked for most of the clickthru links but not the new ones. If you could take a look at some of this stuff I'd very much appreciate it. Thanks.

 

<script>
 var currentPageBaseURL=window.location.href.split("?")[0];
   Y.on("domready",function(e){
       Y.io(currentPageBaseURL+"?page=1&format=json-pretty", {
         on:{success: jsonLoaded}
     });
     function jsonLoaded(err,data){
       var jsonResponse = Y.JSON.parse(data.responseText);
       var items=jsonResponse.items
       Y.all("#thumbList .thumb, #slideshow .slide").each(function(e){
         var thumbId=this.getAttribute("data-slide-id");
         for(var i=0;i<items.length;i++){
           if(thumbId==items[i].id && items[i].clickthroughUrl){
             this.setAttribute("data-clickthrough-url",items[i].clickthroughUrl).on("click",function(e){
               e.preventDefault();
               e.stopPropagation();
               window.location = this.getAttribute("data-clickthrough-url");
             })
           }
         }
       })
     }
   });
 </script>

One thing I noticed is that the code is installed twice. Don't know if that is causing an issue but I suggest removing the duplicated code.

I did this locally and all the images I click on seemed to work. Can you provide some screenshots of images that are not working for you?

I am having the same issue

Could you be more specific where the clickthrough is not working? The SS support article mentioned above says York is supported with the exception of Project pages. Please see Gallery page clickthrough URLs by template.
