Опис
4WP Smart Link adds inspector controls and toolbar shortcuts so editors can:
- Attach a custom URL to a Cover block output.
- Use a dynamic “current post” permalink inside Query Loop contexts.
Frontend markup wraps the rendered Cover block in a standards-compliant anchor when a URL resolves.
Frontend markup
When a link is output, the plugin wraps the Cover block with an <a> element:
- Base class:
forwp-smart-link-wrapper - Block modifier (Cover):
forwp-smart-link-wrapper--cover - Machine-readable hint:
data-forwp-smart-link="cover"
Themes may style .forwp-smart-link-wrapper globally or scope overrides per modifier.
Developer / pre-release checklist
Before uploading banners or screenshots:
- Manual QA in the block editor: custom URL, reset, dynamic “Post Link” inside a Query Loop, open-in-new-tab, nofollow / relation field, accessibility label.
- Frontend: confirm
<a>href,relwhen target is_blank, and no empty wrapper when URL resolves empty.

Часті питання
-
Does this replace native Cover linking?
-
Cover does not provide the same link semantics; 4WP Smart Link layers an
<a>wrapper server-side. -
Does it depend on other 4WP plugins?
-
No. It runs standalone.
-
Will the editor preview match the front end?
-
The link wrapper is applied on the front end only (via
render_block). The block canvas does not wrap Cover in the same<a>, so spacing or theme link styles might differ slightly until you preview the published page. -
Accessibility: card-as-one-link pattern
-
Wrapping the whole Cover in an
<a>is valid when inner blocks do not contain other links or interactive controls. Nested<a>elements are invalid HTML and hurt accessibility—avoid links/buttons inside a Cover that already has Smart Link enabled. -
SEO `rel` when opening in a new tab
