Disable Summary Block Item Links

What You'll Create

Summary block items that display content without being clickable. Visitors see your thumbnails and titles but cannot click through to individual pages—perfect for when you want to showcase content without navigation.

The Problem It Solves

Summary blocks automatically link each item to its source page. But sometimes you want to display content purely for visual purposes—testimonials that don't need detail pages, team members without bios, or service overviews that stay on the current page. There's no native toggle to disable these links.

Perfect For

Display-only testimonial sections, visual portfolio grids without detail pages, announcement or news displays, team member photo grids, service category overviews

What Makes This Different

Completely disables mouse interaction on thumbnails and titles without hiding the elements or changing their appearance. Scoped to a specific section for precise control, so you can disable links on some summary blocks while keeping others clickable.
