Free download function help...

[jonah]

I know that topic title isn't clear but I didn't know how to word it... really.

What I need is a way to allow free products that are downloaded without a checkout.

If I need to make a module some pointers would be great.
Also I would like it if it didn't reduce stock levels as the free downloads are unlimited.

Thanks.

I don't know if this is right way or if it has some security flows,
but here is code you can put in your theme folder , file product.tpl

http://paste2.org/p/725004

It checks if there is zip file, with same name as product, in your download folder.
You can change type and folder

When I look in my download folder I see a file that has a long file name like: 6959bbae9c89914e59fec6039a522fa7bd65b1c7 . no file extension. How do i decrypt this for that code?

I tried the code but I am not sure where download files go on the server. When I left the code by itself nothing showed up on my store. Can I get more help.

Sorry i totally misunderstood your question, my bad :red:

Will let you know if i think of something.

It can be done but with a changes of core files and that is not recommended.

Problem is in getfile.php and format of key.
/* Key format: - */
http://***/get-file....afaf59f32b438d6

And hashOrder is generated after checkout.

Following code is for test purpose only, it skips all validation, so use it on localhost/test server.
In getfile.php (see atachment) i commented out most of code and added

    $file = _PS_DOWNLOAD_DIR_.$key;
    $filename = ProductDownload::getFilenameFromFilename($key);

Then in product.php after line 116

        $smarty->assign('virtual', ProductDownload::getIdFromIdProduct(intval($product->id)));

add

        $smarty->assign('dp', ProductDownload::getFilenameFromIdProduct(intval($product->id)));

Then in product.tpl in your theme folder add following code where you want

http://paste2.org/p/726236
ex. after

I will try to test with validation options, but anyone who knows better solution, please let us know.
Edit: it is better to rename attach to getfreefile.php and also in added code in product.tpl.
