Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about 4WP Smart Link

Cover, Group, Column, and Featured Image (lightbox only) blocks from the WordPress block library. Theme and plugin authors can extend the list with the forwp_smart_link_supported_blocks filter.
The block looks and behaves as usual—no extra link or markup is added.
Place a Cover, Group, or Column inside the Query Loop post template. Select the block, open Smart Link, and choose Post Link. Check clicks on the published page or in Preview—not only in the editor canvas.
Turn on Smart Link on the Group (or Column / Cover). Buttons, title, categories, and tags keep their own links. Clicks on empty areas open your Smart Link URL. The plugin detects inner links automatically and uses host mode so HTML stays valid.
Select a Cover with an image background (uploaded image, external URL, or Featured image in a Query Loop). Open Smart Link in the toolbar and choose Enlarge on click. A small expand icon appears on the front end; the rest of the cover is not a link.
When Enlarge on click is enabled on a Cover or Featured Image block, the sidebar offers Include in page lightbox gallery. When enabled, visitors can use prev/next controls to move between enlarged images on the same page (Cover, Featured Image, and Image blocks using the core lightbox). Disable it on one block to open only that image in isolation.
On posts and pages that contain Image blocks, open the Document sidebar panel Smart Image Gallery. Enlarge for all turns on the core lightbox for every body Image. Organize in lightbox puts those images into one page gallery so visitors can move between them (and any Cover / Featured Image that also joins the gallery). The panel is hidden when the content has no Image blocks.
Yes, as of 1.4.0. If an Image block has a caption, that text appears under the enlarged photo in the lightbox. Images without a caption stay caption-free.
Yes. On a Cover with an image background, choose Link to image file in the Smart Link toolbar. The whole cover links to the background image URL on the front end. You can open it in a new tab from the sidebar.
Yes. On a Cover block, set the background to Featured image, then enable Enlarge on click or Post Link as needed. On the Featured Image block in the post template, open Smart Link in the toolbar and choose Enlarge on click—the post permalink link is turned off while lightbox mode is active. Each card resolves against its own post in the loop.
