@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?
What version of eStore are you using? I checked my 4.7.x copy and all six occurrences of the email text contain “Dear ” (with a space in the email text.
Does your WordPress site send you any other email messages? For example, if a new user registers does the new user get a WP generated password message, or do you receive the new user registration message?
WP eStore -> Settings -> General Settings -> Email Settings -> Send Emails to Buyer After Purchase -> Checked
If that does not work, try this additional step…
WP eStore -> Settings -> General Settings -> Email Settings -> Use WordPress Mailing System -> Opposite of whatever it is now.
You may be over thinking the setup process…

“…All three products are available as FREE downloads. The free versions display a sponsor page in your web browser each time you run the software. If you would prefer not to see sponsor pages, you may upgrade by obtaining individual keys for each product at any time for $9.95 each.”
Maybe that sponsor stuff is making its way into the file.
What does the PDF content discuss? Does it contain any images or other content that lives on facebook? Maybe an image of a “Like button?”

The reason there are no issues when not using encrypted links, is because the web server is directly feeding them to the browser. When using encrypted links, the files are shunted through eStore, which masks the file’s true origin from the browser.
Processing of encrypted link downloads uses PHP resources, both in execution time and memory. Depending upon your hosting service, you may be limited in the amount of these resources.
The problem will also occur if the customer is using a download manager, that attempts to open multiple “streams” on the same file.
