Image Download button is not working

The image download button is not working as expected, it is only redirecting to the direct image link and the user needs to save the image by right click.

Ideally, download button should work like this, if the user clicks on the download button user will see a dialog box and ask the location to save the image on the pc.

I hope this will be doable. please fix this.

That's html based, if is not working you are either using an unsupported browser or you have another thing (I don't know what) affecting that.

I can confirm the same. I have created an RFC for that already.

Better Download

💡Describe your Feature request If we click on the download button of the image, it is just taking us to the direct URL where we can save the same ourselves. But still, it misses few things 1) you have to manually save it 2) you miss the original filename as the file naming method can be...

Same issue here, it just redirects to the direct image URL (.jpg/.png) etc.

This is because I believe the "download" html attribute does not work with other urls other than the origin url.

So it downloads only if the image itself is on the origin url (domain.com) and not on a subdomain, based on what I read on the article I listed below.

"The download attribute only works for same-origin URLs. So if the href is not the same origin as the site, it won't work. In other words, you can only download files that belongs to that website. This attribute follows the same rules outline in the same-origin policy"

Create a Downloadable Link using HTML5 Download Attribute | SamanthaMing.com

Turn your <a href> into a download link instead. The downloaded file will be the same as the original filename OR you can pass in a value to set a custom name...

In the cheverto demo page works because the image url is the same as the origin url:

Origin: https://demo.chevereto.com/image/mexicano-aeronautico-spacio-administracion.e3f5y
Image URL: https://demo.chevereto.com/images/2021/04/08/63fd4a0a16752816c40f6ef0659fe014.jpg
