Question

image in pages won't allow me to hyperlink - how to fix this?

When working in pages, I typically can insert an image and then link that image to a hyperlink. When creating a new document yesterday, my images (social links) won't allow pages to hyperlink. when I select the link option in the inspector, linking to any option is in grey and not selectable. How do I fix this?

Jinifer,

Fix by Hyperlinking with Text rather than the Graphic. If the graphic has a title, you can use that. Or, you can create a Text Box, create the Hyperlink in the text box text, and then set the text color to transparent and place it over the graphic. Then, when you click on the graphic, you will click the hyperlinked text first and your goal is achieved.
