eStore > Admin Functions > Multiple Product IDs

[Romeo Crow]

It would be really helpful to be able to add multiple product IDs in the Admin Functions section of eStore, so that you could get a full list of download links in one go rather than having to manually generate each product ID one after the other (this is similar to the function already built in to the Digital Product URL field of the Add/Edit Product area).

Scenario;

Customer buys three albums from me. Each album is, in itself, a collection of individual Product IDs. The customer then needs new download links, so I want to be able to put in each album Product ID in the Admin Functions section, e.g. “1,2,3”, rather than doing “1”, generating that, then doing “2”, etc.

Is this possible to do? Or can it be added to a future update?

Have you tried using bundled products?

Thanks wzp.

Yes, I already use this function (from above: “this is similar to the function already built in to the Digital Product URL field of the Add/Edit Product area”), but it isn’t quite what I’m after.

That function is handy when adding new products.

It isn’t useful when using the Admin Functions to manually generate downloads.

As per my original post; I want to generate manual download links for multiple products, even when those multiple products are, themselves, multiple products of single products – e.g. they are each an album of 24 individual song file downloads.

That way, if I wanted to generate download codes for 6 x albums (with each album having multiple download files within it) then I want to generate those 6 links in one go, not by doing it 6 times.

(so, it’s basically the same idea as you said, but just in the Admin Functions section!)

Is it possible?

There is no option for that unfortunately.

Shame, that would be really helpful

Hi,

Since the last version upgrade, im now using 8.1.5

Im now getting the error below from wordpress when I try to “generate link” button on the admin functions page, we end up with a blank page. Its a manual download link for customers, we do quite a lot of these for members.

Not sure how to fix, Were do I start?

Error Details

=============

An error of type E_ERROR was caused in line 20 of the file /home/sonofman/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/eStore_debug_handler.php. Error message: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceede

Try adding this line into your php.ini file:

max_execution_time = 45

The location is hosting provider specific.

It shouldn’t take that long to generate the link so something else maybe preventing that functionality from working. Do you see any other error anywhere when you use the “Manual Encrypted Link Generation” feature?

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 45 seconds exceeded in /home/sonofman/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/eStore_debug_handler.php on line 20

There has been a critical error on your website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.

///

This is strange. What happens if you turn off the debug logging feature in estore?

Hi,

Ive worked it out, sometimes i think there should be an age limit when playing with programmable software.

I accidentally had the main product item ID the list of products (products 1,2,3,4,5 in the download link of the ID i was trying to generate links for. ie Product ID 6 – the list generate links was 1,2,3,4,6 instead of being 1,2,3,4,5

All fixed and an easy mistake to make.

Thanks for you patience…

[admin]

haha. Glad to hear that you got it sorted out.
