Description

What problem does this address?

A customer of Neve Pro using Otter asked for the possibility of adding a link in the slider. Currently, it seems to be possible only with custom code.

They replicated the Hestia slider by adding text and button design directly in the image and wanted for each slide to link somewhere.

What is your proposed solution?

Add an option for each slide to have a URL that wraps the slide so users can click on it.

Will this feature require documentation? (Optional)

No.

Research direction

Start by locating the slider block entry point in the Otter Blocks code and inspect how each slide is represented and rendered. Add an optional URL for each slide so the slide links to that destination, then verify that slides without URLs retain their current behavior and linked slides are clickable.
