If a user downloads media from gallery, can it be saved?

If a user downloads an image from a gallery, can that image be saved to a database and then be displayed somewhere else? I want users to be able to download media from the gallery and then view their downloaded media on their own profile pages. I just need to know if it’s possible for users to download media and then that downloaded media is saved to a database.

Hi,

simple images displayed on a browser can be downloaded using right click ‘Save image As…’ there is no server interaction in this case.


however most right protected media sites (such as icons, images etc) are doing, is displaying a low res, watermarked version of the media and then providing a special link which invokes code that does those types of tricks. it will invoke some logic and then let the user proceed with the download

please share some more details about the problem you are trying to solve

thanks,

Hi Shlomi,
I’m trying to make it so that somehow, when a user downloads content from my gallery (Wix Pro Gallery from the App Market), that content is then displayed on their profile page. For example, if a user downloads a picture from the gallery, that same picture appears on that user’s profile page.
Thanks for your help so far!

pawtalog, it is currently not supported by the Pro gallery

If it isn’t supported by the gallery, can I still do this somehow? Maybe using regular pictures with a download button or something like that? Thanks!
