Hello Everyone!
I’m back to working on my little blog again and just now discovering the photo grid feature (yes, I’m a little late to the party).
I was thinking it would be a lovely way to display my Amazon affiliate books but is there a way to add a link to each photo? I can’t find anything.
Thank you in advance for any advice / assistance.
Kind regards from Singapore!
No, the images are not linkable @jazzbird at this stage.
I tried with a button overlay but this messes up the Lightbox effect - unless you don’t want to use it in your design.
A possible workaround and keeping everything in tact is by using a 1 row Image/Video Grid and then placing a linked Button below the image out side of the Image/Video Grid container.
Something like I have mocked up below…
Oh thank you so much @FlaminFig. I think I’ll have to use your workaround for the time being then. I was hoping I was just missing something as one the Sparkle App site it says “They could even be taken to other website pages for a more detailed explanation about a particular aspect of the page offering.”
Perhaps @duncan can look into this for a future update? As it would be most useful to be able to link each image.
Thank you again Hendrick. You’re always so helpful!
I know if you use Sparkle’s Image Gallery you can actively link your images to a destination URL.
You can also use the newish Layout Grid (instead of the Image/Video Grid). This way you can link your placed images to a destination URL which in your case would be Amazon Books…
Oh I think the layout grid maybe the answer! Thank you @FlaminFig. I’ve just started reading comprehensive instructions by @francbrowne so will give it a whirl after lunch. Danke!
I’ve been using the Layout Grid and it’s working out very nicely. Very happy!
