Hi; I need to enable visitors to d'l s/w after purchasing. Of course, I want the d'l page protected, so I presume I'll have to generate a password, etc. Has anyone done this and have some code they could share to get me started? TIA,
You should first look how you get the payment thing to work, how you find out when a customer has payd. You can either give her/him an account, which is easy with the API from Userfolder (see Zopebook). For this your payment method must have proxy rules as manager and then make the new account and show/mail the accounts data to the user. You define a role being able to "view" the file(s) and assign all these new users to that role. Thats pretty easy using the API. The new suer might be able to choose her/his own username or you might want to create username/password from random and time. HTH Tino Wildenhain
