Digital download expiration code?

[vanlutz]

Thank you.

 

Let me just explain what I need to do (it's really simple) and if someone could let me know if osCommerce is what I'm looking for.

 

I have a movie I've made and it's now uploaded in a folder on my server.

 

I CAN go to Paypal and create a BUY NOW button. Paypal will then forward the link to my movie, where the customer can download it.

 

What I need from osCOMMERCE (if this program can do it) is to set up an expiration time on the link. So, when paypal sends the link there's a time limit on how long the person has to download. This way they can't send the link to friends.

 

Is osCommerce what I'm looking for, for this simple little project?

 

Thank you in advance.

you actually can set up oscommerce to do everything, and you can tak eout the paypal button.. everything will be integrated from oscommerce..

 

You can set an expiration date for the download AND the number of downloads that you can offer.

 

You can set it to give the link after the payment has been process, OR when you get the email that says the payment is done.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. One last question (s).

 

Is this easy to do with osCommerce and does this site include simple instructions? I am not the brightest bulb in the basket.

 

I started out with another program and if I wanted to learn how to use their program I needed to pay for the instructions.
