E-Commerce

[John Klyne]

I was wondering if anyone knew a good e-commerce software to use that is free? One that someone else here has used in the past and would recommend it for people trying to sell resell righted e-books.

Thankyou.

a question, if you can help with it or anyone else here.

I have bought a number of resell e-books and wanted to sell them on my new site....

but the thing is, I am unaware of how to make it so that once someone buys it they get sent to a place to download it....(did you find a way to do integrate paypal into this as well)...

Do you have anything that can help or something I should be doing that I am not already doing so that this will work out?

When adding a product, choose "downloadable product".

In the settings, there is a place called "PayPal accounts" and another PayPal option

 

[John Klyne]

What if it says, link not available.
Actually, when I do have something uploaded, which is the down loadable product I went to my account/my download able products/and

1/17/09 test1 - test1 pending 100 downloads ...click on test1 and it says link un available.....now, when I want someone to download a product is it me providing the link or having to make a new page with the download or....

I am giving you 500 credits for helping . hope that is okay...kind of an incentive to help hehe.

[John Klyne]

I am still getting a link unavailable...mind if you try it on my site...

I am raising the credits to 1000. : )

...Edit:...I don't have to confirm something when a product is bought do I?

I may seem like such a .....retard for not knowing how to work this...but, help would be greatly appreciated.

 

[galaxyAbstractor]

what's the link?

 

[John Klyne]

I private messaged site to you....
thanks for the help...

type test 1 in the search field.

 

[galaxyAbstractor]

The status is on pending, you need to go into the ACP and approve the order making it "complete".

 

[John Klyne]

How would I accept it, or change it to paid?
The only place I see that I can change that status is in the comment history, and the only option left there is pending....

Invoice button in the sales/orders page?
Edit:
Okay I'll have to figure this out on my own.

Thankyou for your help, I have sent over 1000 credits for the hassle. and also tried giving you rep.

Thankyou.

 

[galaxyAbstractor]

:O

Thank you

It's on the "orders" page

 

[John Klyne]

Yea I did go there, but can't find an option to change it to paid or such....i'll just keep on testing it until I get it to work.

thanks.

Edit: Can't give rep, says I need to spread it around.
Edit:
Can I ask a question, when a person is sent to the link to download something they bought....is it a link you create or is it automatically created by the software?

Thanks again.

 

[galaxyAbstractor]

I never tried, but I belive it is automatically created

 

[John Klyne]

Okay thankyou, I guess it does not automatically create in my case for some reason. thanks for the help again.
