Hello
it SHOULD be the case. The thing with the URL works quite similar to to the Header Images itself internally. Please check the following Points:
1. Header Image Links is still activated
2. If you use custom output, check if [link] shortcode is used properly. If not, try custom output and afterwards check, if the linking feature is workding properly.
3. Check the source code of the output page, if the URL is outputted correctly or is missing. There might be another reason for this behaviour, if the URL is specified correctly in the output.
4. You also MAY have found a bug, if pt. 1-3 do not help you. Please report which concrete Image you tried to link and I may have to create a bugfix.
Thanks, Blackbam.
Hello,
What was the resolution here? I am also trying out the plugin. I found where the code needs to be for my theme, but I can’t get the header image to link where I am telling it to go.
I’m not sure how to use the Custom Output you provide. Any tips?
Thanks!
Jim
Actually, they seem to be working fine now! 🙂
I have another question, but I think I’ll start a new thread.
I’m having problems with this same issue, the diesel image should have a link but is not working.

Hello, the link of the diesel image is correctly set in the data-link attribute. But for some reason, the link is not working.
1. Make sure that you do not have any errors in the output of your console
2. You should use the “standard custom output”, if it still does not work
On the settings page, click “restore standard” (at the bottom)
You should see the following code:
<div onclick="if(this.getAttribute('data-link')!='') window.location.href=this.getAttribute('data-link')" data-link="[link]" class="chi_display_header" style="height:[height]px; width:[width]px; background-image:url('[image_url]');"></div>
Note the “onclick” attribute. Now the link should work.
Thank you, very useful plugin, this is resolved. Now need to figure how to make the link open in a new window:-)
Hello, thanks 🙂 and this quite easy:
First possibility: Use the attribute target=”_blank” in custom output.
Second possibility: Add the attribute target=”_blank” using Javascript to the header image links.
Hello,
I have still the issue that I cannot link the header.
Where do I have to put the code you posted
<div onclick="if(this.getAttribute('data-link')!='') window.location.href=this.getAttribute('data-link')" data-link="[link]" class="chi_display_header" style="height:[height]px; width:[width]px; background-image:url('[image_url]');"></div>
exactly?
Do I have to replace it with the code in the header.php?
<?php if(function_exists('chi_display_header')) { chi_display_header(); } ?>
Do I have als to replace [width] and [height] or will it be changed automatically?
All issues solved.
Next time I will read in more detail. Sorry for my spam you can delete both posts!
1. restore standard at the bottom and it works….
Hi there. I am having a similar problem as above. I put in the <div> code into the custom output on the plugin configuration… This page shows the code is active
http://www.insightaas.com/category/comm/
The problem I am having is that any customer header image links are not saved in the media library. I put in a link for
Link of the Custom Header Image
for the image and when I hit update, it clears that information and doesn’t save it. Any idea why that would happen?
BTW, I am using the Customizr theme and I installed the header image tag in my index.php
<?php
/**
* The main template file.
*
*
* @package Customizr
* @since Customizr 1.0
*/
get_header();
if(function_exists('chi_display_header')) { chi_display_header(); }
do_action( '__fp_block' );
do_action( '__breadcrumb' );
?>
Hello
unfortunatly I cannot exactly understand the problem or why the the link is cleared. I think the the code is placed correctly.
Did you find any solution for this problem yet? When is the information cleared? Do you mean the custom output function or on the edit post screen?
