  Hi, I’m using a wordpress domain (xxxxx.wordpress.com) and trying to link to some images (xxxxx.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/xxxxx.jpg) but I can’t get the file directly, it’s always going to the Attachment page. Is there a global setting or configuration I need to set?

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

  Hi there,

  In the editor, click on the image, then click on the link icon that appears. There you should see an option to select the media file URL or the attachment page for the image:
