How to dynamic link carosel to post url when using metabox

I need to create a carousel and have the entire area clickable to lead to the post url. I have the feature image linked to the post feature image, Heading linked to post title, and a text element linked to the post url (with no text, set absolute, 0 left, right, top, bottom). Parent container set to relative, z-index for image and heading set to 1, 2 for the text element - still not clickable. Query set on the container to bring in content and query set on carousel to display posts.

Templates for single post, post archive and carousel card all created in Bricks. Projects created with Metabox.

Still not working. Shouldn’t be this hard. Need to add the feature to make the whole area clickable as with the slider
