  Is it possible to add a hyperlink ('href') to a SiteFinity image control? I don't see that property listed (under simple/advanced). When an image has needed a hyperlink, I just use a content block and use html, but I'd think the Image control would have this capability. Am I missing something?

  Brian,
  
  

  The image widget is simply for displaying an image. If someone needs that image to be a link then, as you've noticed, using the content block widget is the preferred method.
  
  Hope that helps!

  Hello,
  
  The image control doesn't offer such functionality, but you can use the content block without editing the HTML. For this purpose, insert an image in the content block through the Image Manager, right-click on it and choose 'Image Map Editor'. A dialog will then open, where you can specify the area of the link and define the URL where the image will lead.
