CQWP pulling link list , when a link is clicked renders the list item rather than opening the URL itself

Question

I have a content query web part on page which i am using to pull a list of links (from a link list)to display on page. I thought clicking this link, user would be able to navigate to the link itself, but when clicked rather the List item is opened. Can anyone tell me how i can have the link to redirect to the URL beneath and not the list item?

Answer 1

In order to render Links List items that redirects to the URL instead of List Item URL in CQWP, specify in Presentation tab for Fields to display:

Link: URL [Custom Columns];
