Hey @fogsgeneral
Absolutely, I can help you with that!

You can indeed achieve your goal of creating a carousel image with links attached to each image, in multiple ways:

  1. Using the Carousel Element

    • First, you can utilize the ā€œCarousel Elementā€ to transform your repeating group into a carousel. In this method, you are not limited; you can set or display anything according to your preference on the RG cells.
    • You can easily attach links from slugs or any other source to the RG cells that are items of the carousel.

  2. Utilizing the Carousel Image Element with Database Entries

    • If your images and the corresponding links are stored in your database, you can opt to use the ā€œCarousel Image Element.ā€
    • Here, youā€™d specify the data type (similar to what is done for repeating groups) and define the image field.
    • The source of the carousel would be the entries from your database, thereby allowing you to input Bubble things instead of just images.
    • To add links to these images, you can leverage the pluginā€™s event (Item Clicked) to initiate an action when a user clicks an image. Youā€™d then access the data item clicked via the elementā€™s state to navigate to the specified URL.

  3. Using Arbitrary Values for Static Images and Links

    • If the links and images are static, meaning they donā€™t change over time, you can use arbitrary values to define them.
    • This method is more manual and less common. But if this method is suitable, we will explain it to you in detail.
