Blog thumbnail

[tothroby]

Hey Presta fans!

 

I am having a small issue in here with my blog module and I decided to ask for some help!

 

I am using the blog module from Xpert Idea but lately, there is no news about them so I started to do some small modifications by myself. 

 

My problem at the moment is that the blog thumbnails are not clickable. If you want to read an article u must click on the title.

I would love to make the thumbnails clickable and I would appreciate every help from you guys!

 

Here is a link to my blog: BLOG

 

Looking forward to hear from you! 

 

Great day to all of you!

Hey ndiaga,
 
Thx for the answer!
But it is possible to do this without adding the link every time?

 

Here is how to code looks like:

I believe this is the file that I have to modify

{* <pre>{$xipblogpost|print_r}</pre> *}
{if isset($xipblogpost) && !empty($xipblogpost)}
