  Hello,

  For a year, I have been using the Gallery Block on several pages of my website to use images as bridge to some of my posts. It’s working as Series Indexes (for several reasons, it’s the only block I can use for this purpose). I add a link to the caption of each image and it worked perfectly.

  Now, I have ghost images and links went crazy (here and here).

  So basically, all the images with links have issues. The images without links are loading properly.

  If I add new images without links : OK.
  If I add new images + add links to them : Not OK
  If I add links to pictures already in the Gallery Block for a while : OK

  Also, one of my pages seemed to not be affected. But as soon as I added a new image with a link, the page went wrong.

  Thanks in advance :)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I added “modlook” in the tags, as the helpers from the French forum told me to :)

  A quick update for anyone having the same issue: when you add pictures in a post, make sure to write something in the “alternative text” for each image. And that’s it, you will be able to add captions (in the media gallery or in the editor) + links on the captions :)
