Image gallery link problem

Try it with this in your theme’s functions.php:

add_filter( 'shortcode_atts_gallery', 'new_link_attribute', 10, 3 );
function new_link_attribute( $out, $pairs, $atts ) {
	$out['link'] = 'file';
	return $out;
}

btw:
consider creating a child theme instead of editing your theme directly – if you upgrade the theme all your modifications will be lost.

No sorry, It dont work.

The code above should link the images from a gallery (on the front end of your website) to the file regardless if the setting in the media uploader was “Attachment Page” or “None”.

The only way I can think of setting it by default to “Media File” in the media uploader is by using Javascript. I’ve created a plugin that does just that. You can download it here:

This is very good!
Worked perfectly! Thanks a bunch!

No problem. I’m glad you’ve got it resolved ??
