disabling link to image file on image page?

    I’m trying to put together a gallery using the media gallery, but having each image in the gallery link to a page with the full size image and a lengthy text description. This works fine, except that the full size image on the target page has a link to the image file itself. On a normal gallery, this is fixable by setting the link url to none, but that of course breaks the functionality your plugin provides. Is there a way of setting the image in the target page to not have a link to the image file?

    (Sorry – can’t give you a link to look at it, as the site isn’t online yet, just on my test environment.)

  • I’m not sure I entirely understand your setup – once you’re on a page that’s not a [gallery], it’s outside the scope of anything this plugin controls. If you’re linking to a WordPress page, you should be able to add the image to that page’s content directly with (you can put a link around a standalone image in page content without it affecting it in the gallery, or have no link at all). If you’re linking to the attachment page for the image, that’s something you’d probably have to modify in the attachment page code.

    Thanks for having a look at the problem, and the helpful explanation. I’ll try to find another way to build what I want – your comments are helpful in pointing another way to look at the requirement. (I was trying to duplicate the approach I took with another, much simpler, CMS that’s no longer supported.)
    Thanks for your help! ??
