Media and Media Links
Media
The media is the actual image or video.
Media Link
The Media Link is the media destination URL.
The Media Link can be set by the user in some modules. For example, in the Image module, you can use the Image Link Url field to set the Media Link to an image.
Some modules has already set a Media Link for their images. For example, the blog module has posts URL as media links; same for the porfolio and shop modules.
These are a few examples of modules and media links:
Image media link: URL set by the user / none
Blurb media link: URL set by the user / none
Portfolio Media Link: project URL
Blog Media Link: post URL

Troubleshooting
Here you can find solutions to common problems and issues that you might be experiencing.
The Title Text Color changes depending on the module the DM is on.
DiviMenus Titles inherit the color you have set in your theme as the default color. However, if the module where you place the DM has a CSS rule for the text color, the title text color will change. If you want to keep the title text color when using DiviMenus On Media, please go to DiviMenus -> Design -> Titles, and set a color for your titles.
#FFF will do the trick in most cases!
