  2. Set Content > Content > Link to the card's destination.
  3. Add the card content as children of Wrapper Link.
  4. Configure Design > Layout, Background, Container, and Spacing.
  5. Save your changes.

Troubleshooting

The card contains conflicting clickable areas

Remove nested links and buttons. A Wrapper Link already supplies the outer link; use a non-link container if the card needs several independent actions.

Only part of the expected card is clickable

Check the Structure hierarchy. Content outside Wrapper Link is not part of its link.
