Setup Preparation

It is recommended that you enable the “Enforce Zero Price Checking on Free Product Download” option in the core eStore plugin settings. Then mark the product in question with a $0 price tag.

Using this Addon

When this addon is active, you can add “wp_eStore_download_now” query parameter to your website URL to create a download link.

For example, the following link can be used to offer a free encrypted download of product ID 1:

http://www.example.com/?wp_eStore_download_now=1

Creating an HTML Link

Here is an example code snippet that shows how you can create an HTML link using this functionality:

<a href="http://www.example.com/?wp_eStore_download_now=1">Click Here to Download</a>

Creating an HTML Link with an Image

Here is an example code snippet that shows how you can create an HTML link with an image:

<a href="http://www.example.com/?wp_eStore_download_now=1"><img src="http://www.example.com/url-of-the-image" /></a>

Specifying a Digital Variation in the Link

If your downloadable product contains digital variation, you will need to specify it in the link. For example:

http://www.example.com/?wp_eStore_download_now=1&variation3=standard

Using Download Now with Stamping Option
