"Post_gallery" filter?

Wow! I’ve been looking into this very issue this evening and have the same problem – I want to use the gallery, but need to link to pages rather than the image files. I came up with the same idea you had, based on FAQ 6 on the plugin site (http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-gallery-custom-links/faq/). I think I’ve found the right enfold file (gallery.php), but I dont have a clue where the post_gallery filter needs to go. I’m also a little nervous about editing the theme’s core code – it would be much nicer to have the hook included in an update.

Cheers

Sorry – its still not working – the sites back up with the revised code (thanks Peter), but the function is not calling the links. I’m still using the Wp-Gallery customer links plugin, as when I disable the plugin, there’s no option to include a custom url when adding images.

Any ideas???

Thanks

Hi Peter – If you get it working for sbrohamm, can you post the solution and I’ll try on mine, otherwise, can I post you my login???

Hi!

1) Please update your theme to version 2.4.5

2) Please make the theme folder writable – otherwise I can’t debug the code.

Best regards,
Peter

Hey!

I still can’t modify the theme files. Please try to insert this code: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/post_gallery-filter/#post-213804 into your child theme functions.php file.

Cheers!

Hey!

Yes because I don’t want that other user can see the utl to your functions.php file :)

Hey!

No, because I couldn’t edit the file. However we should wait for the next theme update because I’m not sure why my code isn’t working and maybe some updated files are still missing in Enfold 2.4.5. The next update should contain all necessary hooks and then you can even use the “big preview” gallery style. I.e. I tested it here: http://test.inoplugs.com/agb/ and used a slightly modified version of the code I posted in one of my last posts.

add_filter('avf_avia_builder_gallery_image_link', 'avia_change_gallery_thumbnail_link', 10, 4);
function avia_change_gallery_thumbnail_link($link, $attachment, $atts, $meta)
{
    $custom_url = get_post_meta($attachment->ID, '_gallery_link_url', true);
    if(!empty($custom_url))
    {
        $link[0] = $custom_url;
        $link['custom_link_class'] = 'aviaopeninbrowser';
    }
    return $link;
}

Best regards,
Peter

Hey!

Actually 2.4.5 is already available since several weeks. The 2.5 update should be ready soon.

Best regards,
Peter

HI guys, I got it working on my site using Peter’s latest version of the function. However, I was hoping the links would work from the thumbnail as well as the main image. The url appears at the bottom of the screen, but it doesn’t click through. Any ideas???
