I'm selling images and would like to use digital downloads

I have 3 different sizes for each image, each having their own price

As far as I see, the system will create a zip of the image after purchased.


QUESTION 1
Does that work for just 1 purchase in the cart or does it zip ALL the files in the cart?

QUESTION 2
With the thought of having 1 image with three options, can the options control which image is downloaded or selected (via name or some other method).
(I really don't want to show 3 variations of the same photo)

Hi Terry
The cart won't actually create a ZIP but you can have a zip as the download and that can contain as many images as you like.
Using the Alt Product ID's you can have different downloads per option.

Just so that I'm clear on all of this....


I would convert my one image into three sizes... name them differently, and compress them. Keep them in the same folder...
then within the options I create 3 alt ids linked to those 3 zip files I just did.
When the customer buys and selects an id (one of the zip files), pays for it all... they will receive a link to that .zip file?
And this will work if they select four images all with different alt ids.... and they would see an email with those four links?


If that works then I would enter the path or name into each alt id?

And if all of this is correct, the big question is.... is there an easy way to enter these id's or locations (links) for 4000+ products?

Hi Terry
You can base it off a pattern. For instance the download for product id...
id000001
...is...
downloads/id000001.zip
