 * Hi, is there any option / way to disable links on thumbnails? I don’t want any
   link for opening images, just to show thumbs.
 * Thanks for any help.

 * Hi [@cofeman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cofeman/),
 * While the display type doesn’t come with such a setting, you can add the following
   custom CSS to your site’s** “Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS” **to 
   prevent the thumbnails’ click action:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       .ngg-gallery-thumbnail a {
           pointer-events: none !important;
       }
       ```

 * Awesome, it works like a charm 🙂
 * Thank you a lot.
   Kind regards.
