Change post featured image link to post itself rather than in lightbox

Hi Jordan,

Thank you for the reply. I used this filter in functions.php:

add_filter( 'post_thumbnail_html', 'wpb_autolink_featured_images', 10, 3 );
function wpb_autolink_featured_images( $html, $post_id, $post_image_id ) {
$html = '<a href="' . get_permalink( $post_id ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( get_the_title( $post_id ) ) . '">' . $html . '</a>';
return $html;
}

but unfortunately that adversely affects the “Related Posts” section at the bottom. I’ve commented out that code for now. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Victoria,

It did, but also ended up affecting the “Related Posts” images at the bottom, messing that up a bit.

Yikes, so I figured it out. The user was setting all their posts to a format of “image” rather than “standard”. My bad for overlooking it. Nevertheless, I appreciate the replies!
