Can anyone assist with the download in admin, and how to set it up?

 

I need some further thorough information because it doesn't make sense in the oscommerce documentation about setting download in attributes -at the bottom.

 

i simply could not get it to work

 

any help would be grateful

 

thank you

did you set permissions for pub at 777 and downloads at 744?

Put download in your downloads folder

don't put anything but filename in download attribute

make redirect false

 

good luck

Thank you for your answer

 

I followed this, which slightly differs from your advice on 2 areas??

 

You need to enable this if you are going to allow people to download

products at checkout from your store.

First, put the product to be downloaded in the download folder on the

Internet:

catalog/download

It will be read from the "pub" folder.

Make sure /catalog/pub is 777 and /catalog/download is 755 and these files

in catalog/includes/configure.php have the forward slash:

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/');

define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'pub/');

Under configuration in the admin set up the download info, true, true,

expiry date, max number of downloads.

Add the product in the admin under "catalog", "categories/products.

After you have added the product go to "Product Attributes" under the

"Catalog" heading in admin.

Choose the product in the bottom "Product Attributes" box.

When you choose a product and have download enabled in the configuration

section you will see a box below the "Product Attributes" section where

you can add the product as a download

OK got it working but, with the download feature contribution, I can?t seem to get it so that a zero or free product DOES NOT keep the customer waiting with the comment of ?Awaiting for payment confirmation?

 

I require free products to be immediately available for download for customers, but don?t know how to enable this, can anyone advise please.

 

At the moment it means I would have to continually check orders in admin to select ?payment received? then the customer has to re-sign in at a later date to go to their account and finally download.

 

thank you
