Moving text & link into multi column image

Hi wonderful community!

I am using the dawn theme and wanting to customise the multicolumn. Currently, the heading/text/links lie under the image. And I have made a column with icons doing so with that design. However, I want to add another multicolumn but wondering if there was a code to either

a) make the image only become a hyperlink OR

b) be able to move the text (heading) inside the image with hyperlink function

I assume this would be a custom liquid section?

Hello, If you want to use image inside link: find this code below into the section>multicolumn.liquid file


                  

                   
                    {%- capture sizes -%}(min-width: 990px) {% if section.blocks.size <= 2 %}710px{% else %}550px{% endif %}, (min-width: 750px) {% if section.blocks.size == 1 %}710px{% else %}550px{% endif %}, calc(100vw - 30px){%- endcapture -%}
                    {{ block.settings.image | image_url: width: 1420 | image_tag:
                      loading: 'lazy',
                      sizes: sizes,
                      widths: '275, 550, 710, 1420',
                      class: 'multicolumn-card__image'
                    }}
                  

                

and replace with this below:

{%- if block.settings.link != blank -%}
   
{% endif %}

   

                   
   {%- capture sizes -%}(min-width: 990px) {% if section.blocks.size <= 2 %}710px{% else %}550px{% endif %}, (min-width: 750px) {% if section.blocks.size == 1 %}710px{% else %}550px{% endif %}, calc(100vw - 30px){%- endcapture -%}
   {{ block.settings.image | image_url: width: 1420 | image_tag:
                      loading: 'lazy',
                      sizes: sizes,
                      widths: '275, 550, 710, 1420',
                      class: 'multicolumn-card__image'
                    }}
       

   

{%- if block.settings.link != blank -%}
     
{% endif %}

If you need to Title inside the link: search for the below code in the same file.

{%- if block.settings.title != blank -%}
    ### {{ block.settings.title | escape }}
{%- endif -%}

and replace with this below:

{%- if block.settings.link != blank -%}
                  
                  {%- endif -%}
                    {%- if block.settings.title != blank -%}
                    ### {{ block.settings.title | escape }}
                    {%- endif -%}
                  {%- if block.settings.link != blank -%}
                  
                  {%- endif -%}

Make sure you have backup of that file before editing.

Hi @missjewellee

May I suggest to update code these steps:

  1. Go to Store Online-> theme → edit code
  2. Sections/multicolumn.liquid
  3. Update code below
{{ 'section-multicolumn.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 | escape }}
        
        {%- 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 -%}

Thanks Zahid. Worked to make image a link but didn’t quite work for the text

Hi @missjewellee

You can update code below

      padding-top: {{ section.settings.padding_top }}px;
      padding-bottom: {{ section.settings.padding_bottom }}px;
    }
  }
{%- endstyle -%}

Hi @EBOOST , would like to ask on this too, would it be possible for the TEXT in the image to appear as a hover instead for Multicolumn?

I am on Studio theme ;https://admin.shopify.com/store/7098a5

Hi,

It is possible. Could you add code above then share your store( url + password). I will help add some CSS to do it.
