  Hi, this has only started happening the last 3-4 months or so but I can no longer insert links into the pictures I’m displaying on my blog. When you click on the picture, it just shows the picture in another window (as I do slide the option to open in another window) but it doesn’t go to the link I have inserted.

  Hi there,

  This is happening because you have set the link to be the media file. To change that please follow these instructions:
