If you upgrade to a business account, all payments to/from you will be presented to the buyer/seller as whatever your business name is. You can also have multiple e-mail addresses associated with your account. But as far as PayPal is concerned the account is in your name.
And don’t forget to cancel out any recurring payments from the sandbox; those will drive you nuts when then come back in a few months, LOL.
It really depends on how paranoid you are about the government you live under. Honestly, there is no disadvantage to upgrading your account; unless you are trying to avoid something.
“Invalid Product Download Request” means that the product ID in the encrypted link does not match the product ID in the database table. Either the link was corrupted, or the product could not be found in the database.
If you were to create a free download button that points to that same product, does it work?
But you must make the second address your primary PayPal address, or else the first one will still be shown. Considering that the cost of upgrading to a verified business account is free, it is well worth forking over the personal information PayPal requires. After all, if they were a real bank, you’d have to give the same information.
You must upgrade to a “Business Account” with PayPal. That will allow you to use a business name, instead of an e-mail address. It is FREE to upgrade, but you must provide some “personal” information to PayPal.
So if the buyer clicks on the link received with the email, the file is correctly stamped, but if they click on the link on the Thank You page, it is not being properly stamped?
Please look in the eStore_includes2.php file near line 21 for the following line…
$email_body = ESTORE_DEAR.$name.
Change it to…
$email_body = ESTORE_DEAR.’ ‘.$name.
And see if that fixes it.
And under the Footer Text Layout Settings, you included the proper tags for stamping the address? What tags are you using?
@AndyC01, In your case, does the “Buyer Email Body” contain the “{product_details}” tag? Without that tag, the links will not be included in the email. The email being sent from the site will then contain the links.
Warning — Running With Scissors Ahead…
If you are a *nix freak, you may want to consider keeping a DIFF log of all your changes. Them whenever you update the plugin you’d simply run the changes back through SED.
First, it is necessary to understand that link expirations are global for encrypted links. The default value of 5 days (or whatever you set it to) applies to all encrypted links.
If you only wish some links to be non expiring, then you would uncheck the “Downloadable” box under “Digital Content Details” and the link will be an unencrypted, non expiring link.
.
The fact that the non expiring link is no longer encrypted does not add risk to your product, because the link itself does not expire. However, as I stated in my previous post, you must trust that your customer does not share that link with other people.
It is analogous to the video store trusting you won’t pass that DVD around before returning it.
You can’t have spaces in the file name, unless you enter “buy now button.jpg” as “buy%20now%20button.jpg”
But to make life easier on yourself, just don’t insist on having spaces in your filenames
So, what you are saying is that some address information that you expected to be stamped is not showing up; correct? Or is it that incorrect information is showing up in the stamped file?
