I would like to be able to click on the featured image of a post and have it open in the browser window. Is there any custom CSS that I could use to do that?
Hi Ricky
Apologies for the delay.
Unfortunately, this isn’t possible without some custom development. I looked, briefly, at the plugin directory and there wasn’t anything that jumped out at me.
If you have a little development experience we can try advise how you might achieve this using a child theme. Alternatively you could hire a developer at Codeable to assist.
You could also turn off Featured Images on the single post page from Appearance > Theme Settings > Blog > Featured Image. You could then insert the image into the post content and would have the control to link it as required. This is the easiest option.
I have a little development experience. I tried to make the code change myself but not sure how to get the feature image url. If you might give a hint on how to get that I might be able to figure it out. I need the featured image for the slider that I'm using.
If you check out content.php or content-single.php you’ll see the featured image being used there:

Hope that helps.
