Description
If your theme makes thumbnail pictures links (which casuses a useless refresh on click),
use this plugin to disable that. That’s it. Once enabled, it will make every featured image
(on a post/page) unclickable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why would I use this?
A select few themes make their thumbnails clickable (like the title of the page) and cause
a redirect to the current page. This plugin removes that without modifying the theme itself.
How do I know if the plugin is working?
The easiest way is to hover over a thumbnail and look at where the link points (usually
shown in the corner of your browser). If the plugin is active, the link will point
to ‘javascript:void(0);’
