Good day to all.

I read the two solution posts
Add link to container
Entire block clickable

But in no case did it work for me….
Now in the past I had used the suggested solutions and they had worked, I wonder if with the 1.7.x update of GP this is no longer possible?

The area of interest to me is on this page SiteTest, at the end, where I have placed a checkerboard container and the one furthest to the right with only TITLE written is what I acted on.

Thank you for your interest and possible support

Hi there,

Is either of the solution implemented currently?

I’m not seeing any custom classes linked-container or clickable-container at all.

Let me know 🙂

Thank you for your response.
No I actually entered the CSS code first in the CSS Customized panel, then I also did the test with a snippets, but nothing actually it doesn’t show as you say.

I did a test by deleting .gb-inside-container and the CSS code shows up ???? but it doesn’t work…
I don’t understand what it could be.

I’ll leave the version without .gb-inside-container online, maybe that will help

Thanks

Just to confirm, there are three steps in David’s solution here:

I don’t see step #1 being done at all. Can you make sure it is done first? Otherwise the CSS in step 3 won’t do anything.

Hi
I believe and hope I have done everything indicated.

In fact, as I told you above, if I add in the CSS .gb-inside-container, the container appears without any CSS directive, as in the images above

See images

NB: Sorry but the server was down yesterday due to technical problems.

Thank you

Doing some tests on other site, I noticed something “strange”
If in the CSS class I put for example double “box-slow-container” – this creates some problems.
In fact during the test with other CSS code it was not seen, but as soon as I removed the double – and put only a – the desired effect worked.

Now I wonder what could be the cause !!!

Hi there,

add this to your CSS:
```
.linked-container .gb-headline {
    position: static;
}
```
This will allow the link to expand outside of the headline, and attach itself to the container
