Guest Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 Hi folks. I've noticed that, with my store, I could (if I wanted to) sell downloadable products on my site. OK, I've created a "storeownload" folder in my directory. I also notice that, in my admin, I can configure expiry days and limit the number of downloads. Now....How does the downloadable thing work? Do they get an email with a link to the download after purchasing? Explain in simple terms pleeeez...I'm a newbie! :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual1 Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 put the file in the downloads dir. set the paramaters you want for the dl. when a customer buys they are given the link as part of the checkout and also in the email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 By "parameters"...do u mean set the product attributes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 I tested it, but it didnt work. In configure.php my place for storing my downloadable produts is 'download/' which I assume is the 'download' folder. I noticed that there is a file called unreal.zip in that folder so I typed unreal.zip in the product attributes section of a product in my catalogue that I chose at random. I tested it by making a purchase, but it didn't work. Am I doing something wrong???? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uslackeru Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 It is a tricky process. I have yet to figure it out myself. LMK if you get it figured out. :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibandyop Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 It is a tricky process. I have yet to figure it out myself. LMK if you get it figured out. :blink: Log into osCommerce as a customer and look at your orders. There should be a link allowing you to download the product when you click it. ibandyop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
