Widget Slideshow: how to disable link

    Hello,
    I’m using a slideshow in the widget space with small 200x250px images.
    Refer to https://bijc.nl (scroll to right-below)
    If you hoover over the widget slideshow pictures there appears to be an ‘image click action’ which I do not like.
    It seems to follow the default ‘image click action’ setting for a normal Lightbox.
    So I’m missing ‘image click action’ setting particularly for this widget slideshow.

    Can I get ride of this ‘Image Click URL’?

    best regards,
    Jan Adriaansen

  • This worked for me ??
    Options -> Lightbox Defaults -> Image Click Action -> Do Nothing -> Save.

    If you have other slideshow galleries you want to open Lightbox (not widgets) then Edit Page -> Click on shortcode icon -> uncheck “Use default options” -> Lightbox -> Image click action -> Open Lightbox.

    This means you don’t open the lightbox by default (also for widgets) and you don’t use this default value and add custom one for other galleries.

    Thanks, works OK! (I had to check appr. 20 other normal slideshows, but OK!).

    For your info: Now in the Microsoft Edge browser the widget slideshow fails to start automatically, sometimes it starts after a reload (F5). Normal slideshows do fine.
    I do not see this problem in other browsers.

    Thank you!!

    OK, I checked again in several browsers:

    My widget slideshow (right below on page https://bijc.nl ) stays frozen in Microsoft-IE11 and in Microsoft-Edge. Clicking on one of the dots gives another picture but then it freezes again. In the past it sometimes started after a reload (F5 or Ctrl-F5).
    I tested this on two different W10 computers with similar outcomes.
    Normal slideshows in IE11 and Edge sometimes also fail to auto-start, in that case they start after clicking NEXT. So it is not quite reproducible.
    My Microsoft Edge version is: 42.17134.1.0.

    On same computer in other browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Avast and Safari) it auto-starts fine. So this seems a pure Microsoft problem.

    best regards and success,
    Jan Adriaansen
