<p>Clickable Featured Image fixes a common WordPress problem: featured images often look clickable, but nothing happens when visitors click them.</p>
<p>Activate the plugin and featured images become useful links:</p>
<ul>
<li>On single posts and pages, featured images link to the full-size image file by default, which works well with common lightbox plugins.</li>
<li>On archive pages, category pages, search results, and Query Loop blocks, featured images link to the post by default.</li>
<li>If a theme or block already links the featured image, the plugin leaves it alone to avoid duplicate links.</li>
</ul>
<p>The default setup is still zero configuration, but version 1.1.0 adds a small Settings screen for sites that need more control.</p>
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Make post featured images clickable</li>
<li>Link single-post featured images to the full-size image file</li>
<li>Link archive and Query Loop featured images to the post permalink</li>
<li>Optional attachment-page or no-link behavior on single posts</li>
<li>Optional no-link behavior on archives</li>
<li>Enable only the post types you want</li>
<li>Works with the core Featured Image block and Query Loop block</li>
<li>Tested with GeneratePress, Twenty Twenty-Four, and common lightbox workflows</li>
<li>Lightweight: no front-end JavaScript unless Meow/Lightbox compatibility is needed</li>
</ul>
<h3>When to use it</h3>
<p>Use this plugin when:</p>
<ul>
<li>Your blog archive thumbnails should link to posts.</li>
<li>Your single-post featured image should open in a lightbox.</li>
<li>Your theme displays featured images but does not make them clickable.</li>
<li>You want a small plugin instead of a full gallery or lightbox suite.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Settings</h3>
<p>Go to Settings > Clickable Featured Image.</p>
<p>Available settings:</p>
<ul>
<li>Single posts and pages: full-size image file, attachment page, or do not link.</li>
<li>Archives and query loops: post permalink or do not link.</li>
<li>Post types: choose which public post types with featured image support should be affected.</li>
</ul>
<p>Defaults match the original plugin behavior: single posts link to the full-size image and archive images link to the post.</p>
