[SOLVED] Gallery with direct download links ? was created by rbuelund

I need to be able to have direct download links in the gallery instead of link to the preview of the item (image or file):
I have this line in the item_container.php:

Code:

$embed 	=	cbTooltip( null, '', null, array( '90%', '90%' ), null, CBTxT::T('Download'), 'javascript: void(0);', 'class="galleryItemEmbed" data-cbtooltip-modal="true" data-cbtooltip-open-solo="document" data-cbtooltip-classes="galleryModal" data-cbgallery-url="' . $displayPath . '" data-cbgallery-request="' . htmlspecialchars( json_encode( $data ) ) . '"' );

Can I change something here so that the "Download" text is the direct link to the file ?

The download link already downloads the image. It forces an attachment output, which is a download and not an inline preview. You can find it on the menu of an image when viewing the modal. If it's not there then ensure Download is enabled for Photos within CB Gallery > Parameters > Photos > Display (this enables it globally and assumes you did not turn it off on a per gallery usage).

Well - yes, but that is not it - when I press the "Download" as it is now, a modal opens with the image or the file - I do not want that modal to open - i want a windows download dialog to open - is that possible ?

- At the same time I would like to be able to still get the little edit icon next to the "Download" link, when logged in. The "Download" link I am refering to is the one generated from the code-line in the earlier post.

Ok, so you want a download button outside of the modal window. That's just a matter of outputting that URL, which can be done as follows.

Code:

$downloadURL = $_CB_framework->pluginClassUrl( $plugin->element, true, array( 'action' => 'item', 'func' => 'download', 'id' => $row->get( 'id', 0, GetterInterface::INT ), 'gallery' => $gallery->id() ), 'raw', 0, true );

That should work fine if directly added to item_container.php template file which appears to be the template file you're adjusting.
