FAQ
-
How do I replace an earlier Antops Container Link build?
-
Deactivate the old plugin before activating this renamed plugin. The folder name has changed,
so WordPress treats this as a separate installation. Do not activate both versions together.
Saved Elementor link settings use the same control IDs and remain available. -
Is the whole container clickable?
-
Yes, with JavaScript enabled. Links and interactive children keep their own behavior.
An actual keyboard-accessible anchor remains available without JavaScript.
The anchor appears visibly when focused with the keyboard. -
Does clicking in the editor open a link?
-
No. Navigation is intentionally disabled in edit mode. Publish and open the frontend.
-
How do I exclude a custom interactive area?
-
Add antops-cl-ignore under that element’s Advanced > CSS Classes.
Use this for custom JavaScript widgets without normal interactive HTML semantics. -
Does it work on legacy sections or columns?
-
No. This version targets Elementor containers only.
-
The container background is enhanced with JavaScript; its right-click menu is not a native anchor menu.
The actual anchor supports native keyboard link activation. Ctrl/Cmd-click and middle-click on the container request a new tab. -
How do I remove a link?
-
Clear the URL and update the page. Clear page/CDN cache when relevant.
-
What happens on uninstall?
-
The plugin adds no separate settings or tables. Elementor document controls remain in page metadata,
so reinstalling preserves existing links. Clear caches after deactivation or deletion.
