How To Create An Actual Download Button In Bubble

Hello Bubblers, I guess that’s what we are called.

Anyways, I just published a blog post about how to create an actual download button.

Let me know what you think or if there is a better way!

Thanks for the article. But how is that different then just having a link to the file using the link element using the URL. Then formatting it to look like a button. Just trying to understand this better as I am also planning to have download links to images.

@AliFarahat The link element only allows you to go to the preview of the image in the browser. By using the HTML element you have the browser actually download the image for the user. Instead of just taking them to a preview, where they have to save it to their computer manually. Hope that helps!

This is good material. Thanks for the solution! @ryan

Was this solution for handling downloads before 3rd party file downloader plugins were created?
