 * I have entries that are ‘link’ format – the body contains a URL and I want the
   title to click straight through to the URL.
 * When I use the elementor ‘Posts’ pro element to build a list of posts, it uses
   the same formatting regardless of the post format.
 * How can I get the titles to click straight through to the URL in the body?

 * Any suggestions for this? Essentially I want to change the list behaviour based
   on the post format – so if the post_format == ‘link’, I want to use the first
   href value to wrap the title in. So the click takes you straight to the link,
   rather than to an interstitial page with the content text that you then have 
   to click anyway.
