Hello, I’d like to have my feature images link to the post that they feature.

How can I do this?

Thank you

[Mehmet S.]

Hi,

– go to appearance > editor > format-standard.php

– find:

the_post_thumbnail( 'blog_feat_img', array( 'alt' => get_the_title(), 'title' => "" ) );

– replace:

'<a href="' . the_permalink() . '">' . the_post_thumbnail( 'blog_feat_img', array( 'alt' => get_the_title(), 'title' => "" ) ) . '</a>';

Hey Mehmet,

Thanks for the code.

When i followed your instructions, the photo didn’t link to the post. What happened was the url for the post was embedded on the main page above the picture. The url didn’t link the post either.

Try this one:

echo '<a href="' . the_permalink() . '">'; the_post_thumbnail( 'blog_feat_img', array( 'alt' => get_the_title(), 'title' => "" ) ); echo '</a>';

Edited:

echo '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '">'; the_post_thumbnail( 'blog_feat_img', array( 'alt' => get_the_title(), 'title' => "" ) ); echo '</a>';
