    Hey, if your gallery image links to another page via HTML inside Elementor’s HTML widget, Google can still crawl and index that link as long as it’s on a visible part of the page. It won’t be orphaned since there’s a link pointing to it, even if added via custom HTML. Just make sure the link isn’t hidden or blocked by robots.txt.
