What kind of lesson or block are you using? Although there isn't a feature that will allow you to hyperlink an image, you could include a hyperlink in text near the image. For example, you can hyperlink within the accompanying text in a Process Interaction. My colleague Ashley recorded a quick video of this in Peek for how to set this up!
I can certainly see a use case for hyperlinking images, and it's an idea worth sharing with our developers in the form of a feature request. Thanks for letting us know how we can make things better!
I know I can appply a hyperlink to text in the description, but it would be nice to be able to apply the hyperlink to an image, in any type of image block. Seems like something fairly straightforward!
I agree. I am trying to see if I can upload a splash screen to an eLearning and have people click on that image to launch the course... no-can-do with the current version of Rise :(
Just to confirm, are you looking for an option to add a hyperlink to an image that jumps to another part of the project, or goes outside of the Rise course? I want to make sure I capture your thoughts accurately before I share them directly with our product team!
I'd like to set up a custom image and link to a) an area within the Rise course or b) an external hyperlink. The only option in Rise is to have a picture and click to enlarge it or not. This is pretty limited and I believe a pretty big oversight.
I think being able to link from images should be a basic function in Rise.
Our product team is always keen to hear about our customers' needs, so I submitted a feature request for this ability on your behalf. Feel free to share any other suggestions you have in this thread or through our feature request form here!
As a workaround for now, try using a Storyline block. Here's an example I mocked up with a Storyline slide that has an image hyperlinking to a website.
One of the things I love about 360 is how the integration of our tools makes it really easy to come up with outside-of-the-box ideas. I hope that's a solution that folks can use!
I was also Googling about this topic and reached this thread. It is indeed a very basic functionality which we also feel is necessary to include in Rise.
Crystal, while the workaround you presented can be used for links out side the project, this still leaves the need of links within the project untreated.
Any update about where the feature request stands?
In the meantime, within a Tabs block, I added a URL where it says "Upload an image or video file, or embed something from the web." My question is this: Our compliance department has requested that I *remove* the image and associated text that automatically appear due to that URL; can this be done? Thanks!
That is currently not a feature in Rise 360, but please take a moment to submit a feature request here with more details about exactly what you’d like to see. Thanks :)
Hello. I, too, reached this page while googling "how to add hyperlink to static image in Rise." And like SibaPrasad stated above, it would be super awesome to have the option of specifying which block in a lesson for the hyperlink destination.

Hi Katie,
I totally agree with Martin. Are you going to add this as a feature request or should we do it?
Thanks.
Thanks for the candid feedback, folks!

Thanks for sending the request Katie. I got an email confirming that. I appreciate that. Hope it'll become a feature soon.
I googled "how to link images in Rise" and i got here. Yes I'm also hoping to be able to link the image to another part of the course. Thanks all!
Thanks Wileen for chiming in. 😊

Hi Sharon,
It sounds like you have a need to hyperlink an image to another lesson within your Rise course, is that right?
While you can already hyperlink to other lessons using a Button Block or Button Stack, I'll let our team know you'd like to do the same with an image.
I appreciate you reaching out to us about this -- it's helpful to know how folks are using Rise and how we can make it even better! 😊
Can we also expect a hyperlink option to a Text and Image to jump to different blocks inside a Lesson (in the same lesson). Thank you , Siba
Hi SibaPrasad,
We do have another feature request submitted for some anchor link functionality within blocks, which sounds like what you would like to see.
I'll be sure to add this conversation to that report as well so that we can update you here when we have something to share.
Just to add my support- this is a kind of functionality that is taken for granted, it would be great to have more connectivity in all directions.
Thanks
Please add the functionality to have a hyperlinked image in Rise. Thank you.
Ditto on the image hyperlink functionality. It's basic UX. Thanks!
Hi everyone,
Thanks for your feedback! Our team has a feature request logged for this capability and I will make sure your voices get added to the discussion.
Wishing for the image hyperlink ability too...
In the meantime, within a Tabs block, I added a URL where it says "Upload an image or video file, or embed something from the web."

Hi Cynthia,
I'm not sure what you mean... could you share a screenshot of what you're seeing?
Hello,
Just checking in to see if inserting a hyperlink into an image is now a thing in Rise? :)
Hi John,
That is currently not a feature in Rise 360, but please take a moment to submit a feature request here with more details about exactly what you’d like to see. Thanks :)
