 * Is there a way to disable the link on basic thumbnails displayed on a page? Because
   I tried to set the lightbox effect to none but it seems the link of the images
   is still on. How may I disable it?
 * Your help is more appreciated.
 * Thanks.

 * [@rolyestemonio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rolyestemonio/) – You will
   need to use a custom template to remove the anchor links from the display being
   rendered … you may be able to work with this Gist as a starting point for your
   own custom template: [https://gist.github.com/Cais/b79761724624336785fb](https://gist.github.com/Cais/b79761724624336785fb)
