After a person orders an ebook or some sort of file is there a way to set it up where they can download it once the item is paid for?

 

thanks for any help with this

Yes you can do this

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.
