Custom links in Elementor Image Carousel

Description

There is a WordPress limitation (no custom link on images) that makes impossible to add custom links on each image in an image carousel or image gallery like the one in Elementor free version.

This plugin just overrides WordPress attachment fields and Elementor Image Carousel widget to let you add custom links to each image in the carousel.
Basically, it adds two custom fields to each image in WordPress Media Library (Custom link and β€œOpen in new tab?” checkbox).
Then it hooks into elementor image carousel widget just before it’s rendered on frontend.

Usage & Documentation

No options, no premium version, no bullshit. Just activate or deactivate.

Note: You have to enable the option β€œLink” in the Elementor Image Carousel widget and set it to: β€œMedia Files” in order for it to work.

Does what it says. Nice and simple. Fills a significant gap in Elementor’s image carousel.

This plugin is really amazing. Just does exactly what it says on the tin. If you are puzzled why the links don’t work on the front end, check first you have selected the link in the carousel to be β€œMedia File” and that you have added the links to each image in your media library. Tested and working on 6.2.2.
