How Do I Link an Image to a Gallery in WordPress?

When you want to add an image to a gallery in WordPress, you will first need to find the image you want to use. Once you have found the image, you need to decide where you want to place it in your WordPress site. You can place the image on your blog’s main page, in an individual post, or in a category or tag. After you have decided where to place the image, you will need to decide how you want to link to the image. You can either use the WordPress gallery shortcode or the image URL. If you are using the shortcode, you will need to replace the image URL with the shortcode’s text.

For example, if you wanted to add an image of a flower to your gallery, you would use the shortcode . If you are using the image URL, you will need to replace the image URL with the gallery ID. For example, if you wanted to add the image of a flower to your gallery, you would use the image URL http://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/flower.jpg.
