tutorial needed

salva_arte · May 28, 2009

I'm new to oscommerce and would like to set up store to sell CD's of original music, download original music trax for a fee, download some free original music, and selling e-books to be downloaded from my web site. I'd like to set all this up with oscommerce. Do you know of any tutorials, manuals or any other form of help I can get to learn from? I'm new to this and need instruction to even choose which tools are best to use. I appreciate any help you can give me. :blink:

Expiry Delay (Days)

Maximum Number of Downloads

Introduction

The "Download" link allows customer downloading of products after they are purchased.

Download

Admin>Setup>Download section.

NOTE: To change the details click the "wrench graphic tool" under the "Action" column next to the "Title" being edited.

The products to be downloaded after purchase are put in the catalog/download folder.

The catalog/download folder will be read from the "pub" folder.

Make sure the /catalog/pub folder is 777 and /catalog/download folder is 755 and these lines 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/');

The configuration for the Download section is:

Enable download

Whether or not downloadable products are allowed.

Download by Redirect

Use browser redirection for download. Disable on non-Unix systems.

Expiry Delay (Days)

How many days the download will be available for before being deleted.

Maximum Number of Downloads

Maximum number of times the customer will be able to download the file before they are locked out.

After the product is added go to the "Product Attributes" section under the "Catalog" heading in admin.

Add say to option name on lefthand side Delivery, on right handside select option name delivery and add option value Download to it or use download version english only

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 name of the product to download. Again make sure the pub directory has permissions of 777.
