You can customise the experience for your visitors with several display options from links, to buttons, and even checkboxes. Once clicked the file will be securely downloaded automatically. For multiple files, the plugin dynamically creates a zip file that includes all the files for that product, and downloads that instead. The plugin can be customised in several ways including how the download buttons or links are presented, their appearance, should users be logged in, and more.
Check out the plugin settings page for everything. Full supporting documentation is included with the plugin, available on the plugin settings page. Free Downloads WooCommerce comes complete with a full guide and explanation of the plugin settings. These are available on the plugin settings page. If you need more help, please feel free to post in the support forum. The short answer is the plugin uses a safe and secure form on the front-end which requests the file. They will not be included if they are external links.
Once created with either all of the files for a product or a selection of the files, it is temporarily saved in a folder on your server. Every hour that folder is emptied.
If you deactivate this plugin, that folder and its contents will be removed. If you use external file links it is recommended that you use the Links Only display method, if you have products with multiple files. If there are multiple files downloaded as a dynamically created ZIP file, regardless of setting, the URLs will be hidden. If you use the Redirect download method, the full URL may be visible for single files. For example, a PDF. This is the same as it would be without this plugin.
The official Memberships and Subscriptions plugins from Woo are supported. If you have a free product that requires a user have a membership to purchase, that free product will only be available to download if the user is a member.
