Make Thumbnail Clickable Link

Hi Gary,

Yes, it is possible with WP-Portfolio. When you create or edit a listing, click on “Show Advanced Settings” and toggle the dropdown labeled, “Show Link?”. That should do it. If you run into any trouble, just let me know! 🙂

Cheers,

I noticed earlier that my screenshots ARE clickable. I just took another look and disabled the “Show Link” I mentioned earlier and my screenshots are still clickable.

However, I could not find any setting to make them so. It’s curious that mine are clickable and yours are not. I will have to look through the code to see where those links on mine are coming from exactly.

It might take me awhile before I can make some time to investigate that in-depth. I will update again once I know more.

Sincerely,

Brandon

Hi Gary,

Sorry for the delay. It’s been busy with so many roll-outs this week. I finally had a chance to dig into this a bit, and I see that my “Layout Settings” are what puts the link on my thumbnails. Perhaps I customized mine from the default and just do not remember doing so. Otherwise, I am not sure why yours would be different.

However, here is what you should check and update, if not like mine:

Go to WP-Portfolio -> Layout Settings -> Website HTML Template

Just beneath the first div (portfolio-website), modify the thumbnail div to match as follows:

<div class="website-thumbnail"><a href="%WEBSITE_URL%" target="_blank">%WEBSITE_THUMBNAIL%</a></div>

Please let me know how that works for you. 😉

Cheers,

Brandon
p.s. Do not upgrade to v1.40 yet. My dev guy pushed the release before I had a chance to test it and it is broken. I am waiting on him to come back online to fix it, because I’m having trouble pushing updates to the WP repository. 🙁

Awesome! Thanks for confirming that it worked… I’ll have to remember that for the next person who asks. lol.

Don’t forget to leave a stellar review for the plugin, if you LOVE it! 🙂

Cheers,

Brandon
