Can't right-click save images in Wells template

Recommended Posts

I have no problem using my context menu for my test site. SS would not be installing code to prevent context menus.

But that just saves as an HTML, not the actual image, as far as I understand?

You are absolutely correct! I wasn't paying attention, my bad.

I can explain why  there is a difference in behaviour between the thumb and the expanded version. Squarespace has added several overlays that act as controls for previous, back to thumbs, and next. So when you bring up the context menus, it isn't seeing the image but the HTML elements and so does not offer the option to save an image.

I don't have a solution but some ideas. Two ways I can think of potentially solving the issue. They would both involve JavaScript and would require the business plan or above.

The first would be to remove the expanded image overlays and then the user would rely on the lower left hand corner controls.

The second would be to add a button or link as an overlay to the overlays that would download the image.

I liked the layout of this template but I probably will just change it then.

This is one of the nice features of v7.0 is that you can Preview a bunch of different templates, all within the same site!
