  I added a slider to my twenty fourteen theme, but want to know if there is a way add link that will open a post.

  Currently, I have five sliders and would like a click on each of the sliders to open a page or post.

  Thanks for your support.

  Hi there,

  I see you have set up your homepage using the Slideshow Block, which it not really intended to be used as a “slider” but instead is meant to show a group of images as a gallery. There is not an option to add a link URL to images added in this block.

  Instead you may want to use the Carousel Block, which is intended to be used as a “slider” and does have the option to link to posts or pages.

  More info here: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/posts-carousel-block/

  Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
