[Resolved] clickable featured images

[Matt]

Hi

I’m using the query function to pull category-specific posts into a grid. By default, they are not showing as clickable. Is there a global setting to avoid going into the link settings of each one (both feat. image and post title) and toggling to “link to post” ?

Example shared.

Thanks

Hi there,

so that is the core query loop block, which doesn’t have to be used unless you’re wanting to add posts to a static page.
The alternative is to use the theme archive pages.

Can i see one of these pages so i can make the relevant suggestions?

But in answer to your question, no, there is no default “enable” this setting in the core blocks.

Hi, it’s a staging site so sharing link and some login credentials here. I was using those queries because our ‘category’ pages are custom pages which are redirected from the generic archive versions.

Are you using GenerateBlocks Pro ?

[Matt]

not as far as I know. I have GP Pro theme but if blocks was an additional subscription I don’t have that for now.

OK, to do it with just the core WP blocks, ( its a bit hack ) then you can from any blocks toolbar 3 dot menu Create Reusable block.

Then you can add that Reusable Block to any other place, and from the toolbar 3 dot menu Convert it to a Regular block.
This last point is important otherwise all instances of the block will be linked.

OK. And to do it with GP pro blocks how does that look?

[David]

With GB Pro – you can create Local Patterns. And those you can just add to a page and job done.

Thanks
