How Do I make a clickable image in a multi column using studio theme.

Shopify Discussion
1

I’m changing over to shopify and am trying to do a review page for my business. Because I have so many reviews on different products, I’m trying to set it up so they click a button (Image) with the name of the product n the button, and this will then take them to a new page with all the reviews of that particularly product.

However, it seems I can only link text, not image. Is there any way around this so I can easily do this? Remember I’m new to shopify and am finding it difficult to navigate at times, so an easy solution would be best.

You can see it in my weebly site what I’m trying to acheive.

Hi RobynC,

Step 1: From Online store > Edit code > Sections > multicolumn.liquid> find the code below:

it should be around line 75

Step 2: Wrap that whole div with open and closing tag below:

<{% if block.settings.link !=blank %}a{% endif %} href=“{{ block.settings.link }}”>

(…the div above)

</{% if block.settings.link !=blank %}a{% endif %}>

Now your image is wrapped with the same link as text.

Hope this helps!

  1. Create a new page: In your Shopify admin, go to “Online Store” > “Pages” and click on the “Add page” button to create a new page where you want to display the reviews for a specific product. Give the page a title and add any relevant content or formatting you desire.

  2. Edit the product description: To create the button on your product page that links to the reviews page, you’ll need to edit the product description.

    • Go to “Products” in your Shopify admin and click on the product for which you want to add the button.

    • In the product editor, locate the description field and switch to the HTML editor by clicking on the “< >” button in the formatting toolbar.

    • Insert the following code where you want the button to appear, replacing “PRODUCT_HANDLE” with the handle of the product for which you want to display the reviews, and “IMAGE_FILENAME” with the filename of the image you uploaded:

Customize the reviews page: Open the page you created in step 2 for displaying the reviews of a particular product. Customize the layout, formatting, and content of the reviews page as desired.

Thanks for your reply - it didn’t work - but I did muddle around and found a complete fix from somewhere else - I had to completely replace the multi column liquid code

Thanks for your reply - it didn’t work but I did muddle around and found a fix where I had to replace the complete code for the multicolumn liquid assets.

Hi, I have the same problem. Can you explain how you did it?

7

In the end I had to copy and paste a whole asset to make it work. Found
the solution online. It’s there somewhere!!

Hey! where did you find the solution?? having similar issue.

Locate the file : multicolumn.liquid. Change the whole code to below code.

This works for latest themes.

{{ 'section-multicolumn.css' | asset_url | stylesheet_tag }}
{{ 'component-slider.css' | asset_url | stylesheet_tag }}

{%- style -%}
  .section-{{ section.id }}-padding {
    padding-top: {{ section.settings.padding_top | times: 0.75 | round: 0 }}px;
    padding-bottom: {{ section.settings.padding_bottom | times: 0.75 | round: 0 }}px;
  }

  @media screen and (min-width: 750px) {
    .section-{{ section.id }}-padding {
      padding-top: {{ section.settings.padding_top }}px;
      padding-bottom: {{ section.settings.padding_bottom }}px;
    }
  }
{%- endstyle -%}

{%- liquid
  assign columns_mobile_int = section.settings.columns_mobile | plus: 0
  assign show_mobile_slider = false
  if section.settings.swipe_on_mobile and section.blocks.size > columns_mobile_int
    assign show_mobile_slider = true
  endif
-%}

  

    {%- unless section.settings.title == blank -%}
      

        ## 
          {{ section.settings.title }}
        
        {%- if section.settings.button_label != blank and show_mobile_slider -%}
          
            {{- section.settings.button_label | escape -}}
          
        {%- endif -%}
      

    {%- endunless -%}
    
    

      {%- if section.settings.button_label != blank -%}
        
          {{ section.settings.button_label | escape }}
        
      {%- endif -%}
