Custom Links and Images for Post Items
By default a grid item will link to the post permalink and show its featured image in the grid. It is however possible to manually set a custom link and/or image for individual grid items.
To be able to do that for a specific post type, make sure you’ve enabled this option on the Grids > Settings > General page.
After doing that you’ll be able to set this custom link & image when editing a specific post.

Custom Links and Images for Category Terms
When creating or editing a taxonomy term (like categories or tags) you can set a custom link or image to use in the grid.
Make sure this option is actually enabled for the taxonomy you want to set this for on the Grids > Settings > General page.
