 * Hi, [@k360](https://wordpress.org/support/users/k360/).
 * That’s not possible. FIFU only provides the image URL to your theme/plugins. 
   It isn’t able to insert HTML components to the image, such as a link.
 * Changing the theme code, it would be possible. Example:
 *     ```
       <a href="...">
           <img src="...">
       </a>
       ```
