The only issue is that I cannot get the links after payment. Everthing else is great. I know it has to do with the setting I have for payment. If you wouldn't mind taking a look at my ealier post #161, I have a group of links to screenshots. The second group of 4 has the settings I have (the first one and the last one). I know its got to be a combination of those - or at the very least the Paypal order status settings since the download controller setting work when I use Paypal standard. This is really making me weary. I've stressed so much about it I've made myself sick, so now I'll have a summer cold for the next 2 weeks... I have one more question for you... Were you able to do testing with Paypal express with a sandbox account? I can do it just fine with other software, just not OSC... Thanks for jumping in.

So I finally got it to work with PayPal Standard. There really should be an update to the information provided with the installation document. Nowhere does it say that [Contribution] Super Download Store for Version 2.3.x doesn't work with Paypal Express. I'm so PO'd with this that I'm really contemplating just junking OSC and going with Woocommerce instead because of the bad taste left in my mouth over this...

thanks! I'll try switching to Paypal Standard and see how that goes. I'm trying, but it doesn't seem to want to co-operate...

Anyone??? Someone must know what the settings are. There are stores running this right?

I still can't get the downloads to show up. I assume it has something to do with the Set Order Status & PayPal Transactions Order Status Level setting in the payment module for Paypal express. I have the Downloads Controller Update Status Value set to 12 & the Downloads Controller Order Status Value set to 12 (per DunWeb's post (#160) to have it set higher than 11). I'm using a real paypal account and set my product prices as 0.25 just so I'm not transferring hundreds of dollars into Paypal to get this sorted out. What should these setting be to make this thing work?

Ohhhhhh. I see now.... :) I guess I'll have to set up a personal Paypal account to test my site. While I have your attention :) Do you know off hand what the latest addon is for gift cards/voucher & coupons?

So, another thought I had was what if its how my paypal account is set up. Are there any must have features on the paypal account to allow the instant download. I've set my sandbox account as a business account to accept payment through paypal express for digital downloads. I can't figure out how to get the stupid download links to show up. I'm getting very frustrated with this now...

I did some more fiddling around and was finally able to get the download buttons to show up but they aren't right, although the date fixed itself when the dl buttons appeared. http://www.weebly.com/uploads/2/2/8/2/2282559/9288526_orig.jpg I think I saw something about the buttons, but I didn't understand it at the time I was reading, so I'll see if I can find that post... But, what I'm wondering about is how they eventually came to show up. I was updating the order manually from the admin panel and just going through each state in order from the drop down and refreshing the front end screen where the test order was sitting. When I updated to download now available (which is the second time this order was in this state) it brought up the download buttons on the front end. I hope I'm not going to have to do this for every order. That would kind of defeat the purpose of having instant downloads... http://www.weebly.com/uploads/2/2/8/2/2282559/1772863_orig.jpg So again, any advise anyone can offer about this would be so much appreciated...

Ok, I'm just about there, but I'm still not getting the downloads to show up and I'm still getting the weird expiry date (my host did a test and not the server settings - so it has to be code somewhere). Can someone tell me by looking at my screenshots what I might have configured incorrectly? another thing I noticed is that the names of the grouped product is showing all the file names as the same, but I do have different names in the files in the products attributes screen... So these are the screens I get when I complete an order and going into order history: http://www.weebly.com/uploads/2/2/8/2/2282559/7501654_orig.jpg http://www.weebly.com/uploads/2/2/8/2/2282559/8396520_orig.jpg and these are how I have my shop & products configured. If anyone can tell me what the problem is, I would really appreciate the help. http://www.weebly.com/uploads/2/2/8/2/2282559/4161106_orig.jpg http://www.weebly.com/uploads/2/2/8/2/2282559/8215471_orig.jpg http://www.weebly.com/uploads/2/2/8/2/2282559/7330600_orig.jpg http://www.weebly.com/uploads/2/2/8/2/2282559/8499629_orig.jpg I've tried both download by redirect set to either true or false and neither worked at getting the downloads to show up. ETA: I see the image thingy doesn't work properly... ..

Ok, so I'm starting to see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel (doing the happy dance). I have just one more hurdle and then I think the rest is cosmetic stuff which I can deal with. I ran a test using Paypal sandbox to test the product set up and downloads and everything works fine until it comes to the order success page. I'm getting these weird errors. I did see a post on this, but I can't find it again and I can't remember what search terms I used or if it was through google that I searched. Also notice the date the product links expire - weird! At any rate, here is what it looks like:

So, that piece of code is already in that php file. Its a little confusing, especially since I have very little experience with this type of thing. I haven't looked at any sort of code since I was in my first year of university learning Fortran - many many many moons ago....

this is the version I downloaded: Super Download Store v2.3.x Is there a newer version? Thanks for the quick reply BTW.

I've read all 8 pages of this thread and I can't find anywhere where it gives details on how to complete step 3.2 And then add new definitions to files list below: Do I just copy the code from the manual installation for the files listed in this step? If so, there is no code for the last files in this step: catalog/admin/includes/languages/english/products_attributes.php I've been banging my head against a brick wall for 3 months with this stuff. I give up, look for something else, but this has the 2 features I need - Paypal Express & bundled products. Please, I really need some help here with this....

Yeah, well I gave up. I've wasted too much time with this for it not to work. I'm going to find something else...

So, I tried replacing and then modifying the file, but of course that didn't work. Just in case anybody looks at this thread and might be able to help, this is the error message in the Opera browser: Remote server or file not found You tried to access the address http://catscrapfever.ca/admin/products_attributes.php?action=add_product_options&option_page=1&value_page=1&attribute_page=1&osCAdminID=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, which is currently unavailable.

Everything is as it should be, so I don't have any idea why its not working...
