My first step was to set the 'forcelink' feature to 'false' so that thumbnails wouldn't link to each post by default. The next logical step, so I thought, would be to click on the 'edit post' link beneath the short version of the post on the home page and then to simply hyperlink the post image in order to point it to the destination of my choice e.g. a static page within my website or in my specific case http://www.my-work-in-progress-secret-website.com/?cat=1.

The thing is that the hyperlink only works in the full post view but not from the thumbnail image of the short version of a post on the home page.

If the above is clear enough, I would be forever grateful for support and a possible fix for this. As an additional reference I have copied what I think is the relevant part of the 'theme function' code below;

----------------------------

// check image link
//$chk_imglink = '/(<a(?:.+?)rel="(?:lightbox[^"]*?)"(?:[^>]*?)>)'. preg_quote($matches2[0], '/') .'/';
$chk_imglink = '/(<a(?:.+?)href="(?:.+?\.(?:jpe?g|png|gif))"(?:[^>]*?)>)'. preg_quote($matches2[0], '/') .'/';
if ($flg_img_forcelink) {
$grid_img = 'post_title) . '">' . $grid_img . '';
}
else if ( preg_match($chk_imglink, $content, $matches3) ) {
$grid_img = $matches3[1] . $grid_img . '';
}

---------------

Please let me know if you need any additional information.

Your help is muchly appreciated!!

Creating an Image Link
Click on 'insert an image' tab in editor and add the url with image, replacing the file url/post url.

OR, in HTML editor:
<a href="your_page.url"><img src="your_image.url"></a>

I want to link an image to a new wordpress page within a post.
How do I create that new page to be linked?

• You could have a browser issue so try changing your browser settings, refreshing the page, or clearing the browser cache and cookies - instructions for specific browsers.
• Note that when you make adjustments to your browser settings -- changing privacy settings, deleting cookies or increasing security -- you will need to close your window and restart the browser before those new settings become effective.
• You could try upgrading your browser.
• You could try using another browser.
• You can use this link to see if your flash is up to date.
• If it’s not up to date then this is where to download and install the latest version of flash.

Sometimes the image appears, sometimes it disappears. Currently it is in disappear mode!

The post contains four images, and the second image, lemon bubbles two, is the culprit! When I first noticed this issue a while ago, I edited the post by removing the image and adding it again from the Media Library, making sure that the Image Link was linked to the Post URL. This seems to have worked. However, on checking my blog again tonight, I notice the image has disappeared again.

I AM able to click onto the empty space in the post where that image is supposed to be, and see the hover alternate text and also full-size version of the image in a new tab. I use IE9 and have no desire to use any other browser. What can I do please?

Thank you again!.

If from within a page, then you upload the image and then in the insert image window, you put the URL of the other page into the "file URL" field, make the other settings (size, alignment, etc., and then click the "insert image" button.

I recently started using the facebook publishing feature and have stumbled upon a problem. The posts which are displayed on my facebook contain several links, one is the link to the actual post, in this case http://senchaholic.wordpress.com/2010/07/23/yuko-ono-sthlm-pa-stockholm-green-festival/ and one is a link to a seperate page with only one of the images from that post http://senchaholic.wordpress.com/2010/07/23/yuko-ono-sthlm-pa-stockholm-green-festival/img_1071/.

I don't want that last link. I think that when clicking on an image in a facebook post, you should be brought to the actual blog post, not a page with only that image. I don't want to confuse my readers. Is there a setting for this? Or is it "working as intended"?
