   Please could someone help me with this niggling issue. I have created an iconbox on this page http://cachetmedia.com/ with a link to a youtube channel. But for some reason, it does not work and I receive a popup message stating that the image does not exist. The Icon is displayed, and the link is correct.

   Please help!

   Hi,

   Instead of this url http://youtube.com/user/cachetmediatv, use this one to direct users to your youtube channel.

   Thank you! Works like a charm! Could I enquire as to your thoughts on why the normal link didn't work?

   Hey jasksks,

   The theme automatically grabs media links and put them in a lightbox. You can use a url shortner like Ismael did and you can also add the class noLightbox to a media link and prevent it from opening in a lightbox. For example, in the Text tab you would modify the link to look like this:
   

   <a class="noLightbox" href="http://www.youtube.com/user/cachetmediatv">My Youtube Link</a>

   Regards,

   Devin
