Hi .. I have a site and I want a folder to be downloadable to only the members who pay through my paypal button.When they click on the pay button and pay the money..the folder should be accessbile for download.AND MOST IMPORTANT, WHEN ANYONE DIRECTLY GOES TO THE LINK..IT SHOULD NOT BE ACCESSIBLE..how ccan i make this?any script?or free software or any methods? Thanks in advance.. Faithfully, C.
It depends on how many people, you can do password protection but it might be an issue if you get a lot of sales.
How can I password protect to the folder other non paying visitors then?Do you have any scripts or information?Thanks.
Il have a folder named "members only".I want this folder's materials to be viewed only by paying members.I have a paypal account and I have made the button which redirects to this folder when a user makes payment.But I have problem is how can I disable the link for others who don't pay but get the links that I gave to paying members?
Have you looked at using e-junkie? I use them right now and they are an excellent service. You have people buy through your e-junkie link. Once the purchase is made, e-junkie will automatically shoot off an email with a download link. If you offer a huge file, host the file yourself, have e-junkie send an email with a username and password and the URL where to download. Have the script protected though on your end! It is a great way just to sit back and watch the money roll in. All you are responsible for is offering support via email.
You can try prestashop for good ecomerce website. You can sell virtual products such as ebook. Secure to download files very good. but can not be downloaded directly and you may be setting for how many times the file was downloaded. But if you sell litle product, you can try payloadz or ejunkie. sorry for my english. CIMW
Hi Bikram, 1.If you have an apache server that supports php. 2.You can protect the required folder using htaccess and htpasswd. 3.Use paypal IPN (Instant payment notification) and a script to verify the payment and generate random username/password plus append this into the htpasswd file. send an email to the user with username/password. Or if not IPN you can do this manually add a username/password into the htpasswd file and notify the user for access.
