question about downloadable product

[mapperkids]

Hi,

 

I setup a store to let people buy different downloadable products, my question i also want to setup a group of people who can download all those products, but not through the storefront, since the file names were changed and stored in the folder called 'download' and it is not understandable. does it means I a have to duplicate the whole set of file in other folder?

 

Thanks,

not sure I understand. let's say you have 10 products, you want this special group to be able to purchase them all as a bundle, and then download them all? if so, you can use the pack feature for this.

Hi,

 

I don't want the bundle feature instead I would like a group of people like VIP member can access the download folder and download whatever they want, but the file name is in hash now, no one will understand what is it actually, so I'm looking for ideas,

 

Right now, I copy all the products to other folder and use the password to protected the folder, so only certain people can access it. BUt that mean I duplicated exact copy of each products in two folders.

 

Just see any idea from you guys!

you could create a php script that resembles the get-file.php script

 

it would be responsible for authenticating these VIP customers (assume they are in a special customer group?), and then present the downloadable products in a list.

 

if you need assistance in building that script, you can send me a PM and I can provide you an estimate to build it.
