When you insert an image inline (e.g. within a text block) the edit media panel includes a field underneath the image into which you can add a link.
For your readers, the link will work when they click the image. If you upload different images for large and small screens, the same link will be used for both images.
Note: Typically you must include the http:// or https:// at the start of the link for it to work, although you can also use mailto: links for emails, tel: for telephone, or use hash links to link to a specific section of the story.
Link options
Open link in new window - Defaults to off. If checked, the link will open in a new browser tab. To have the link open in the same tab as your story, leave the box un-checked.
No follow (SEO) - Defaults to off. If checked, adds a
rel="nofollow"attribute to the link, which can be used to suggest to search engines that you don't endorse the destination and don't want to pass ranking credit.Show link icon / label
Top-right - By default, a link icon will show over the top-right of the image, and when the image is hovered it will expand to add a "Visit Link" label. This can make it clearer to your readers that an image is linked. For some images this option might be too intrusive or unnecessary, or it can get cutoff if you add rounded corners to the image, in which case one of the following options might work better.
None - The label and icon are removed. This can be a good option for images that are more obvious links (e.g. logos in the body of the story).
Below image - Adds a smaller version of the label and icon below the image. The label will be pre-expanded so the reader doesn't need to hover for it to show "Visit Link", and it will get a copy of the link while the image will still be linked as well. If an image caption has been added, the label and icon will be placed immediately after the caption text.
