I created a dynamic slider according your video "How to create custom sliders for WordPress using Toolset and no coding" (hidden link). In order to make the slides clickable I linked the entire container to the related posts. By doing this the dynamic background images do not work any more. Only the first image is shown for all slides.
I saw the warning that links inside the container will break. Are the background images links in this sense?
How can I overcome the problem?

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Our developers are aware of this issue and they are working on it. Hopefully, it will be fixed in the next release.
So, currently, you need to deactivate the link on the container until we publish the fix for it. I'll keep you updated as soon as we have the fix ready.

Our sincere apologies for the inconvenience.
