    When using the plugin “simple lightbox”, the functionality of the download button in the file block is not working as intended.

    Usually, when clicking the download-button in the file block, the file will download automatically. but when the file to download is a picture (jpg or png), the picture will open in the lightbox, instead starting the download.

    How can I deactivate this behavior? As this is not, what I expect, when clicking “download”.

    Thank you!

    Hi, handling links with the download attribute is on the to-do list. As development is prioritized by demand, please refer to the existing ticket to vote for this feature and add your comments.

    Thank you.

    @archetyped Okay, nice to hear, it is on the to do list. But do you have a workaround, because it not solves my problem at the moment.

    Hi, you can exclude links from opening in the lightbox using the [slb_exclude]shortcode (documentation). This has been noted on the aforementioned ticket for future reference.

    Thanks.
