I'm trying to insert an image only product link into my WP site but its not working.
I inserted the image into the body of my post and then pasted the HTML code at the bottom. But when you click on then image its supposed to re-direct to the associated product page on Amazon..but it doesn't work.

Anybody have experience with this?

    Hi Roell, I upload the image so I can get a URL for it.

    Then, you need image hyperlink html code.

    Put the amazon url in the 1st part
    Put the image url in the 2nd part

    In other words:

    <a href="http://www.youramazonproductlink.com"><img src="http:/yourimageurl"></a>

    At least that's how I do it.

    When you're making a post, WP defaults to a visual or non-html view. If you click the HTML tab at the top right of the posting area you'll see the actual HTML code area and can paste your amazon product code in wherever you want.

    You should be able to see your product displayed by clicking on the Preview button. I've had a couple of things that didn't show until I actually published the post.

    Good Luck!

      Are you supposed to insert the image in your post by itself and also insert the HTML code?

      Or should you just upload the image to your server and only insert the HTML code where you want the image to show up?
