Guest Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Hi everyone. I would like to know if anyone could tell me how i can create a download page or links. Here's my idea. I would like to add some software to my site to be downloaded by my customers. But i dont know how the process works or if it is even possible. Can anyone help me on that? I tried to read the OSC guide and it is not too helpfull when it goes to download. Anyone knows anything please Help!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Hi, You could add your download link to the description of the product or you can use the download function of osc which is very nice. This is how you do downloads in admin: 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. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
