| Description | I've reported this issue before and then thought it fixed itself via. cache, but the issue is still there randomly even after I cleared cache.
https://rp.lovinity.org/catalogues/category/rp-store-home/powerups.htm Issue: This entry does not have a hyperlink like it should on the picture to its entry. |
| Steps to reproduce | |
| Additional information | Currently I'm using a custom grid image template, but this issue was tested and confirmed with Composr's original templates too.
Attached: Two HTML source files. First one is source with custom templates. Second one (_2) is with original templates. |

Comments
But I've added more documentation about it, which describes a workaround, and I've deployed the workaround for you.
Docs follow...
Note that if you set all fields of your catalogue to "Display in category-views" and disable comments and trackbacks, there will be no links to the entry view screen. This is due to there being little purpose in this screen because everything already displays on categories.
If you want to change this behaviour then you can edit the relevant display template (e.g. [tt]CATALOGUE_DEFAULT_GRID_ENTRY_WRAP.tpl[/tt]) to replace [tt]{VIEW_URL}[/tt] with [tt]{$PAGE_LINK,_SEARCH:catalogues:entry:{ID}}[/tt] and [tt]{VIEW_URL*}[/tt] with [tt]{$PAGE_LINK*,_SEARCH:catalogues:entry:{ID}}[/tt].
Mobile users do not get tool tips, so this kind of functionality would prohibit mobile users from ever being able to view the content of such catalogue entry.
...unless you made an exception for mobile users.
