Title: [Plugin: Background Manager] Link in background not working Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # [Plugin: Background Manager] Link in background not working * Resolved [agiovine](https://wordpress.org/support/users/agiovine/) * (@agiovine) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/) * Hi there- * Again, great plugin! I think I am missing something. I added a link in in the Background URL field within the image options, but it doesn’t seem to work. Does the entire background become a link or is there a certain plac ein the background that becomes a link? * Thanks again * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/background-manager/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/background-manager/) Viewing 13 replies - 1 through 13 (of 13 total) * Anonymous User 4048828 * (@anonymized-4048828) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761535) * The entire background will become a link. * However, as the background is hidden behind the theme, I’ve seen a few instances where the theme itself interferes with this (by covering the background image with transparent elements). * If you can provide a URL where I can see the plugin in action, I’d be happy to have a look and provide you with a more clear answer. * [teleanu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/teleanu/) * (@teleanu) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761558) * The link doesn’t work on my blog to. link [http://www.styles.ro](http://www.styles.ro). Thank you. * I’v respected the faq from the plugin page. * Anonymous User 4048828 * (@anonymized-4048828) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761582) * Hi Teleanu, * The Javascript for Background Manager does not appear to be loading, which due to a bug can happen in certain cases. There’s a [development version](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/background-manager/developers/) available, which should address that bug. * [teleanu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/teleanu/) * (@teleanu) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761589) * I installed the Development Version, but the link only works in full screen option. in Normal mode doesn’t work. * Anonymous User 4048828 * (@anonymized-4048828) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761596) * Hi teleanu! * Can you verify that on at the bottom of the _Settings_ screen the version is “ Background Manager 1.0.25-dev44”? What you’d mentioned (not able to click when selecting “Normal” mode) was resolved in the Development version quite a while ago, so hoping it hasn’t regressed. * Anonymous User 4048828 * (@anonymized-4048828) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761597) * I just had another look at your website, and you are indeed using 1.0.25-dev44. Based on that, I’ve found another little bug, which should solve what you were experiencing between normal mode and full screen. * At the moment you do not have an active background set, so I wasn’t able to test it any further. I’ll let you know when the update is available. * Anonymous User 4048828 * (@anonymized-4048828) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761598) * Just a heads up, teleanu, that I’ve updated the development version which should provide a fix for the issue you were experiencing. It’s at 1.0.25-dev45 now. * [teleanu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/teleanu/) * (@teleanu) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761601) * thank you. i will get the .45 version and i will come back with feedback. * [teleanu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/teleanu/) * (@teleanu) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761602) * Works fine, but i’v noticed that the header part is not clickable 🙂 in rest is ok. work in normal mode to & that’s super. * Anonymous User 4048828 * (@anonymized-4048828) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761609) * If the image cannot be clicked in the header, then it may have been covered by a theme element (thought perhaps invisible, due to margins or padding). This is theme dependent, unfortunately. * Thread Starter [agiovine](https://wordpress.org/support/users/agiovine/) * (@agiovine) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761610) * Hey – I actually just figured it out for my own site – the z-index in pub.css- 1996 was the culprit * Thread Starter [agiovine](https://wordpress.org/support/users/agiovine/) * (@agiovine) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-background-manager-link-in-background-not-working/#post-2761611) * One more question – how can I make the link in the background image open in a new window?

It will be available in the stable version soon.
