Click 'image' goes to internal link?

15 Sep 2010, 02:35

Morning all,

I'd like to have a specific image/video when clicked goto an internal link
rather than it's current setup, thumbnails.

I've already reviewed some of the topics in the forums, but for the life of me
can't seem to figure it out. I've already tried the SETTINGS - IMAGE - CLICK
drop down box for LINK, but no link field shows up under the images.

Ideally I would like most of my photographs to retain their IMAGE - CLICK -
THUMBNAILS setup and a few special images/videos to have an internal link
setup when clicking the image, not a button link. Possible?

Thanks for any thoughts,
Christopher

Christopher,

I think you just missed one thing - First you need enable the LINK attribute for files, so that you can actually file a value for the LINK for a specific file. Go to admin -> settings -> settings.attribute.image ... There you have to select the "LINK" item and SAVE your settings. From there on, all your files will have an extra field on the right LINK - This field can be populated by and link, internal or external.

Thereafter, you are already on the right track to apply this LINK to an event. You can go to settings -> image.image.click, and set it to LINK. When visitor clicks the image, they will be taken to the LINK defined from admin. If LINK does not exist for an image, clicking the image will act as normal ...

You can also apply the LINK to thumbnails click, or you can set it up as a button in main controls.

Sorry for the late reply!
