Make images into links

You will notice on the Toy Review that there are sometimes thumbnail images that link to other pages of the site. These are a little more difficult to do but you can have a go if you like, please ensure your image is uploaded before continuing.

  1. On the page where you wish to display the image link, click on the 6th button on the toolbar. [[Image:Example.jpg]] will appear in the textarea below (shown by the black arrow).
  2. Change the word 'Example' to the name of your image (you need to name this the same as you named it when it was uploaded eg. goes-hollywood-barbie.jpg).
  3. Insert a pipe and type the size you want the thumbnail link to be eg. [[Image:goes-hollywood-madison.jpg|80px]] - this will create an image 80px wide. Click save.
  4. Right click on your image and select properties, copy the long piece of text next to where it says 'Address (URL)' which should look something like this: http://www.thetoyreview.com/images/goes-hollywood-madison-thumb80px.jpg. Then close the pop-up box.
  5. Paste the piece of text onto the page above where you have written [[Image:goes-hollywood-madison.jpg|80px]] then delete [[Image:goes-hollywood-madison.jpg|80px]] from the page.
  6. You now need to insert another piece of code around the text you have just pasted, like so: {{clickpic|Title of page you want to link to|http://www.thetoyreview.com/images/goes-hollywood-madison-thumb80px.jpg}}
  7. Press save and see if your image has worked.
