Thanks Ciaran,
Yes I have added a slide link to each slide already in that way - yet it remains unclickable.
See the home page slideshow on http://www.japonin.com

Hello

To amend try adding the following to the Custom CSS field of your templates parameters (Extensions -> Templates -> [YourTemplateStyle] -> Custom CSS)....

.slidelink {

    position: absolute;

    top: 0;

    left: 0;

    right: 0;

    bottom: 0;

}

Hello

I realise that this is possible with the latest version of the LayerSlideshow module which I have installed to your Joomla env. You now have the option to open links in a new window with each image (add a link to display the option).

Ciaran

Thank you Ciaran, your fix worked like a dream. Super very handy. PERFECT!!!!

Hello

This option should be available to you via the Slide Link option with each item within the Image(s) tab of your LayerSlideshow module settings?

Ciaran

How do I get a slide link to open in a new window for an external link?

Hello

As the option is not available by default, the only solution is to create an override for your module and set the target attribute to open in a new window for your slide item. If you are not familiar with overrides, may I suggest sending temporary administration access to your Joomla installation to info@joomla51.com and we will create the override for you. For our reference please paste a link to this post in your email.

Ok I tried doing this and I followed the instructions here https://www.joomlart.com/tutorials/joomla-4-tutorials-how-to-create-override-for-modules-components-and-layout but do not know exactly where in the code to place it. The code is beautiful though.

Kindest Regards,
JT
