Hello,
I have noticed that when using you photo galleries Google Console kicks it back as a coverage error because it is seeing each image in the gallery as a page and not an image. Is there a way to remedy this? Sample page posted below….
Since there is no image tag such as jpg or png in the gallery is is seeing the image link which google thinks a page?
Let me know your thoughts please. Thanks!
Hey hylandgraphics,
Those images are set as backgrounds and link to the image in a lightbox, that is the way it works in the theme. If you need to change that then I think you will have to use a different element. What exactly is the error you are getting when it’s being crawled?
Best regards,
Rikard
I am getting soft 404 errors on every image that uses your photos gallery. Since there is no file type on the ending such as .jpeg it things each image is a web page thus resulting in a soft 404. Anyway to fix this? Thanks!
Hi hylandgraphics,
Could you please attach some screenshots of the issue?

I have the Yoast plugin and it seems this option is no longer available?
Hi,
It is there, they have just changed the UI a little bit.
