Please can you add an option for images field (intro and full) to surround it with a link to the full article ...
Should be very usefull.
No, it's the Joomla! render settings. Like Float, link text, link etc. Re just use native J Rendering with:

$img = JLayoutHelper::render('joomla.content.full_image', $item);

Instead of our options.

Hello,

You can do that already if you set 'Link Titles' to yes in Joomla! we will also link the image.

Many thanks

Hello,

Ok can you just confirm where this is exactly i.e. what view? I'll run some further tests and look at adding a 'Link to Item' to the image field.

Many thanks
Tony

In the image field options, set ' Image Rendering Options ' to no. Then it will link providing link titles is set to yes within the menu item.

Many thanks

Just tested like you say and it's OK.

But to be true i don't understand what the 'Image Rendering Options' parameter is for ??
The description is not very clear ...

It's the options applied to the display of the images when adding the image.

We should probably add an option to force linking.
