SEO - be able to wrap block elements in a link (Ahref tag)

[Pierre]

On many sites i usually need to have an entire block of content be clickable as opposed to just a link field.
This clickable content must be in ahref element (and not a div) for semantic and SEO purpose, as well explained on Stackexchange.
This is critical for seo optimization.
for example, i have a div block with a paragraph and an image. i want to wrap it all with the ‘a’ tag

@Pierre

the ‘a’ tag

Hello @DenisKozeev that’s sweet, my bad i didn’t notice this feature
and it works like a charm, the semantic is perfect even the button is just a div inside the ahref tag so we are good to go ! see the screenshot
Thanks a lot !

Hi @Pierre,

Please see this feedback thread for a discussion on how to make this more intuitive:

Applying a link to a block

Following on from this discussion: I have done some further testing and confirmed the current behaviour in Cwicly. When you link a Heading block, the structure will be: <h1> <a href="#"> [...contents...] </a> </h1> Wrapping the contents of the original tag with the link. When you link a Paragraph or a Div block, the structure will be: <a href="#"> [...contents...] </a> Effectively replacing (and therefore losing) the original tag. This inconsistency may not be apparent to new…

Thank you @StrangeTech, this is usefull and may consider some extra testing have a great day !

For future reference:

Please reconsider the general approach of linking linking cards as a whole as this has severe accessibility and SEO implications.

Here is a pretty straight forward tutorial on that topic:
