okay added this option. Now you can use the following shortcode on a post or page and it will display a download button that the members can use to download the product (this way the real URL of the product won’t get revealed).
[wp_eStore_download_now_button id=1]
The product id is 1 in this example.
Added this option to the plugin… now you will be able to display a counter for any product.
The following shortcode will display the sales counter on a post or page (the product id is 1 in this example)
[wp_eStore_sale_counter id=1]The following shortcode will display the available copies counter on a post or page (the product id is 1 in this example)
[wp_eStore_remaining_copies_counter id=1]Seems like there is something wrong with the email parser that you have setup in AWeber. It should not add the “from email address” to the list. When setup correctly it Adds the name and email of the customer to the specified Aweber list. Can you please make sure you have setup the parser exactly as it is explained here?
I am in the process of adding a complex coupon system which will allow you to configure coupons that you have asked for.
I don’t have a package deal for the eMember and Affiliate plugins but i am sure we can work something out when you are ready to purchase
@mtepaa, at the moment the simple shopping cart doesn’t have the bank transfer (manual checkout) option.
The main reason for using encrypted buttons instead of plain PayPal button is to make sure no one can look up the HTML source and inject variables and stuff into the form.
There is no risk when you use the WP eStore’s button cause the eStore has post payment verification which checks every details of the payment against the values stored in your product database to make sure the correct amount was paid for the product or service. The following URL explains this verification process in detail:

How to Fix the Seller Accepts Encrypted Payment Issue
This error is displayed because your PayPal Account Profile is set to only accept payments from “encrypted” buttons.
Do the following to turn off this option:
1. Log in to your PayPal Account
2. Click “Profile” link
3. Under “Selling Preferences”, select “Website Payment Preferences”
4. In the section titled “Encrypted Website Payments” select “Off”
5. Click “Save”
A free membership is the same as any other membership… the only difference is that the visitor doesn’t have to pay to become a free member and access the protected content that is available to this membership level.
For paid membership one will have to make a payment for the membership and then become a member whereas for the free membership one can simply register by filling in a member registration form.
The membership demo site has a good example. Have a look at the “Join Us” page from the following link:
A common practice is that you make your good stuff available to the free members but make the really really good stuff available only to your paid members.
It should be setup automatically.. once someone makes a payment for a membership the eStore plugin will create the membership account and send an email which will contain a unique link to complete the registration (choose username and password). Did you hook up the payment button created in eStore for a particular membership level that is explained in this post?
You can put products into categories and then display all the products from that category on a page. There is an example on the following page:
Regarding the money back guarantee… due to the nature of the product I don’t give refunds for change of mind (I try to provide enough documentation and demonstration for the product).
2CO doesn’t seem to have enough documentation around this shipping thing. I have added the shipping variable but it doesn’t seem to get added. Anyway, I have put a workaround for this. I have sent a copy to your email.
Manual checkout option is available in the WP eStore plugin. If a customer chooses to checkout manually then you (the admin) will receive an email with the details of the customers and the products he ordered. Then you can contact him to arrange the manual payment. A small functionality can be added so the customer automatically gets an email with your bank details once he checks out.
@dnavarrojr, this plugin requires you to manually create/configure each product and display them on your pages so it won’t suit your needs.
The following URL explains this in a bit more detail:

@Ovidiu, you only need one membership level for the whole thing which is the “Digital Subscriber”. Members who sign up for this gets to read the protected content (digital version of the magazine) on your site.
You can simply create a subscription button for the payment of the paper version. The following post explains how you can create any type of subscription button with the WP eStore plugin:
How to Add/Create a Subscription Button for Recurring Payment
when someone orders a paper version using this button they get the paper version delivered (weeky, monthly, yearly or whatever) as long as they stay subscribed. No need for any membership for them cause they will never need to read anything online.
If a digital subscriber want to get the paper version delivered too then they just have to pay for the paper version using this subscription button. No need for another membership level since they can already read the digital version.
let me know if this makes sense.
Hi Rog, it is really up to you… the URL of the file that you enter will be delivered to the customer upon purchase.
Digital images can be easily copied from the browser so this is what I do…
1) resize the images I display using the NextGen Gallery to a smaller size.
2) apply watermark to the image using the NextGen Gallery “Effect” option.
This prevents stealing of images from the preview you display on the NextGen Gallery.
I store the real high res watermark free images on a separate location and use them as my deliverable. Once the purchase is complete the encrypted download link for the original image (1920×1200 resolution and no watermark) is emailed to the buyer.
