  I can’t believe I’m the first person to ask about this but I couldn’t find anything among the forum posts.
  I want to create a post that has images/text that links to a block of photos (gallery?). I don’t want readers to be able to go to the pictures except through the post and I don’t want the photo location to show up in the menu of anywhere else.
  I’m thinking that I can do this by creating a page for the photos and a custom menu that excludes the page. Is this the best way? I haven’t attempted anything on my page yet but the idea is something like:

  Blah, blah, blah blog entry.
  To see photos of Bob, click here…
  To see photos of Bob’s dog, click here…
  etc.

  Thanks for any help you can offer.

  Hi there. If you want to link to single photos you can just link the text to the image URL but if you want to link to a gallery of photos I think you have the right idea with inserting them in a page which doesn’t appear in the menu. I can’t think of another way to do this in WordPress.

  Of course, you can also create something like a Picasa web album and then link to that from your anchor text.
