Change image for an image block with Link To:Media File does not change Link URL

  • I can create an image block and set “Link To” to “Media File”. I have a lightbox plugin, so the image opens in lightbox when clicked.

    Recently I changed an image and tested the page. What I found was the page showed the new image, but when clicked, opened the old image in lightbox.

    I set “Link To” to None, saved and set back to media file and it worked fine.

    I can understand, if I chose a custom URL, that it would not change. I did, however, expect the Link URL to change when I changed the image when Link to is set to either media file or attachment page.

    I’m submitting this as a bug.

    I realized reading my post after submitting, that the lightbox plugin could be involved. To be sure I deactivated the lightbox plugin and repeated the steps. I did see the same issue. Link URL did not get updated when the image was changed. When I viewed the page and clicked on the image, it went to the old image’s attachment page.

    The issue is still there
