    I'm so glad to see that there is now a "credit" plugin and that you can assign credits to other products or sell them as a separate product. But am I missing something?

    How do I, for example, assign a credit amount to a downloadable file.

    Or if I wanted to create a custom page, where I list 100 audio files, how would I assign "credits" needed to download each file?

    An example would be much appreciated but please keep in mind I'm not a programmer and dont fully understand API calls. I've been using amember for some time now and the extent of my expertise is ticking a box to add the needed feature. Nevertheless, I'm willing to learn if pointed in the right direction.

    Thanks

    Unfortunately this can't be done just with configuration, you have should have php skills in order to implement such setup.
    For files downloads you need to create php handler that will send file and in that handler you can use code that will decrease user's credits. Credits plugin is more for programmers, it provide an ability to manage credits from your php code.

    Shoot!

    Thanks for the reply Alexander... I'm currently trying to learn php. Nevertheless, I would definitely consider this as "jumping in the deep end".

    An appeal to all programmers.

    If anyone would has an idea of how I could implement downloadable files by credit, I would greatly appreciate your help (even if commissioned).
