I have a page where visitors can download a file, but I need download count analytics so I can't use a simple notion file block.
I can store the file elsewhere then have users download by clicking linked text.
A more professional image would be more ideal though.
This is just an embedded page with an image that links to the file via HTML when clicked
The problem: Clicking the image in the embedded block inside Notion does nothing. If I open the html page by itself outside of Notion, the download works as intended. I've tried _blank and _parent in the html to no avail.
Might be worth noting that if I set the image to open a different page (rather than download) it works fine embedded in notion. It's just downloading that doesn't work.
Is there anything special I need to include in the html to allow downloads via embedded image, or a different solution? Or is it just not an option on Notion? I think the problem involves the <iframe>, but I'm a bit of a novice so I apologize if there's something simple I overlooked. It's just confusing why downloads work in hyperlinked text, but not embedded images.
Any help much appreciated!
