I created: 1) a template using elementor, where it opens the custom photgraph field that I created with more info about the picture.
2) a filterable gallery of pictures from said custom field, using Toolset Blocks.
What I want to do: Every time one clicks on a photograph from the gallery, it directs to the elementor template.
The options i have on the "Link To" setting (of the gallery), are: None, Dynamic source, Media File, Attachment Page, Custom URL, Lightbox.
Which one do I use and what options must I fill to do the job the correct way?
Hello,
How do you setup the "elementor template", does it have an live URL in front-end?
If the "elementor template" has an live URL, you can try option "Custom URL", and link to the specific URL.
My template has a dynamic source.
If I link the live url to the gallery, it doesn't show the picture or the info that are included on the custom photograph field, as it leads to an empty template.
The way i created the template is: I chose the Image widget -> Choose a dynamic tag -> Toolset Image Field.
Then I choose settings and as "Key" I choose the Phograph.
Is there something wrong?
It is not clear, you did not answer my question: does the "elementor template" have an live URL in front-end?
If it does not have any live URL in front-end, then it can not be linked to.
As you mentioned above, there are only few option you can try:
None, Dynamic source, Media File, Attachment Page, Custom URL, Lightbox
None of them can link to a "elementor template" with dynamic source.
And those option are from elementor plugins, I suggest you check it with elementor support.
Well, If i link the pictures to the Front End link of the template, the Template that will show up is blank,as it "needs" info on the dynamic field.
What Im trying to accomplish is that I want to customize the window that opens when one clicks on a photo in the gallery.
Is this possible without using the Elementor template, which is meant to be this dynamic page?
Is there something else I could try?
There isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset blocks plugin, you might consider custom codes, for example:
hidden link
