How do I set up a document for members to purchase and then download? I've tried putting a PDF in one of my protected folders but when upload the pdf to the folder I get an error message. I gather there is another way to make documents available for purchase by members of an aMember membership site? Sharon
Can you give a screenshot of your product setting? Also, have you properly set the folder protection? David
David here's my screen shot I'm not having any luck getting this board to allow me to paste my screen shot. I want this document available to people who have paid for a certain level of membership. I have successfully protected the folder I want to put it in. My question is what is the procedure for uploading a document that you want members to download|?
FTP - upload the document to the protected folder and use the "Additional URLs" settings to link to it in your product settings. David
Error messages give a good indication of the problem so when asking for assistance it does help if you include the error message rather than just saying you received one!! My entire site is based on members accessing pdf files for downloading and I can assure you it is simple to do.
Thank you to everyone who helped me on this post. I re-read comments especially about it being a very simple thing to do and went over the steps. I was leaving off ".pdf" in my link and I did not list the link under "Additional URLs." Next time I'll also remember to include any error messages I was receiving - but the problem this time was just me being a newbie and not listing link correctly. Much appreciated, Sharon
