Wordpress images - Can someone advise me please

6 replies
Hey

I have something I am stuck on if anyone can advise

I want to insert multiple images in a wordpress page. these images then need to each link to a new url on the blog.

How is best to do this so they are presented nice on the page ? Say 3 thumbnails wide on each row

I have tried the gallery feature but I cannot get each image to link separately this way

Am I doing it wrong or is there another way ... Please help

Thanks

Dean

    Well you could do HTML hack and put each image in it's own div.
    Like:
    <div style="float:left"><a href="url.com"><img src="image.jpg" border="0"></a></div> and so on.

      I also do this with HTML like Stephen suggested. Here's some sample code I use to create a block of inline ads that you might find helpful:

      HTML Code:
      <div style="font-family: Arial,helvetica, sans-serif;font-weight:bold;font-size:12px;width: 565px;height: 125px;clear:both;border:1px solid #e7e7e7">
         <ul style="list-style-type: none;margin: 0;padding: 0;">
         <li style="float:left ;margin:2px 3px 2px 0px;border-right:1px solid #e7e7e7">
             <a style="padding-left:54px;width: 125px;height: 125px;background-image: url(images/ad1.png);background-repeat: no-repeat;display: block;text-decoration: none;color: #000000;" href="http://site1.com" title="Blah Blah Blah">

    If you want an easier way just get the FK Editor plugin that allows you to use tables and then just add 3 x 3 table and add a photo to each cell.
