I am trying to create an embed link where it directly downloads an image from my CMS.
Referring back to a related thread, Webflow disallows us from using the custom attribute “download” as it’s reserved for Webflow.
From what I gather, I can use an embed to accomplish this, but I am having trouble with the correct code.
For my CMS setup, I have a file field where I have upload the image I would like to be downloaded. The file name is the same as the “Name” field for the CMS item too if that’s helpful.
This won’t work because Webflow is hosting the files at “https://assets.website-files.com/yourfile” - the “download” on the HREF won’t work unless the files are bring downloaded on the SAME URL… so if you site here yoursite.com - then the files would have to be yoursite.com/filename...nothttps://assets.website-files.com/filename… a big limitation on Webflow. Well…not big…but for this purpose… a bit annoying. I’m trying to click on an SVG and have that SVG download as a file…won’t happen.
