Is it possible to use image mapping in weebly? I have an image that I want to use to navigate to other pages.  I found where I can embed code but first I need to store the image somewhere for the code to access it.  Can someone please help.

Go to your code editor, THEME-EDIT HTML/CSS. On the left side you should see a directory called ASSETS. Click on the cogwheel symbol alongside and upload your image, either in the root directory as a single file or create a new folder to house it (better if you have more than one image). When it uploads click on the image to open it. Right click on the image and select COPY IMAGE ADDRESS. Then paste that address into your code.

Hope this helps, Gary

Thank you Gary. That worked!

Is there any way to use image mapping with the built in image gallery?

I doubt it. Galleries will only accept .jpg and .png formats which are static images. You  can use the entire image as a link, sure, but not have sepate links for different areas of the image. Image maps require specific HTML and sometimes javascript to work. Youi'll have to embed that code into an HTML element.

I thought I had a bright idea . I had an image map for years on one of my websites, that worked perfectly with embedded code of Weebly, but I had to change the location of the image. I thought Dropbox would be a perfect place, so I introduced the following embedded code:

<img src="https://www.dropbox.com/s/dk2kms4r6bkihvu/Menuboom_800.png?dl=0?" width="800" height="794" border="0" usemap="#imap_80">

The funny thing is that the URL yields the png picture in a browser, but it doesn't show the picture with the above embedded code in Weebly. Did I overlook something?

Kind regards, Ruud

Thanks for posting, @Ruud_Mans 

I moved your post over to this thread where a similar issue is discussed. There's also another discussion here. 

Did you change anything about the code other than the image url? 

[Ruud_Mans]

No I didn't change anything else ... just the URL where the image is located.

Thanks to the advice of Gary, I succeeded. So I uploaded my images in the assets of my theme, copied the URL and voilá... it works.

Of course I could pursue my attempts with a dropbox image, but what the heck ... why should I when this works perfectly.

Thanks very much, Gary!
