    Great little shortcode, it’s going to be very useful to make links look more interesting on my site…

    For some reason the link box is going the whole width of the page, when I only want it to cover a percentage of say, 50% of the area it’s in.

    I imagine it’s because I’m doing something wrong… ??

    Any suggestions?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Having the link full width is normal for the default templates. You could switch to a static template on the Settings > Visual Link Preview page and set the max-width in those settings.

    How do I select a static template in my page? Sorry, I’m completely new to this plug in! ??

    On that same Settings > Visual Link Preview page you pick the default template at the top.

    Even using Default, it’s not changing width. I realise it may be me missing something obvious…

    What did you set the “Default Template” setting to now?

    If you set it to “Static – Simple” and then use the “Use Custom Styling” setting for Static Template below you can set the “Max width” to the pixel value you want it to be.

    That’s the ticket. As suspected – my own stupidity… ??

    Thank you very much. ??
