Selling MP3 collections as singles or albums

[vveerrgg]

I am trying to allow mp3 files to be sold individually or tied together as an album.

While I’m thinking I might have to build some custom code to do this, I was wondering if out of the gate there was a way within the cart to tie items together or sell them individually.

I was thinking of adding all songs as individual posts (with a common custom field) then writing a custom loop, which would display the posts which have common custom field as one release. The loop rendering would still allow each release to have their own buy button, but I’d add one to the full release which would automatically add each song to the cart.

I guess what I’m looking for here is some inspiration on how I could allow users to buy a full album or buy individual songs, using the eStore widget.

Hi, The following article will explain about how to do bundle products: http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/ecommerce/how-to-configure-a-packaged-product-using-the-existing-products-262

You can bundle the individual songs(each song will need to be its own product) into one album.

Let me know if this is not what you are looking for.

Cheers,

Ivy
