Downloadable Products

    WP e-Commerce version: 3.8.14.1

    I did this: Uploaded a file via ‘Upload new file…’ button, publishing product, adding product via ‘Select exciting files’ and Updating product.

    I expected WP e-Commerce to do this: Load the product into the downloadables folder as a unique link, with a correct file size.

    Instead it did this: The digital download is saved in the product, but with no filesize, and the link to ‘Download’ comes up with a page “Sorry something has gone wrong with your download!”. The file is saved under wpsc/downloadables but not with the unique link like it used to be.

    Can you please provide some documentation on where to go from here? I’ve had to bring the store down for now as the links aren’t working.

    I can provide WordPress details privately if you need to investigate further.

    I’ve had some success in fixing this for anyone having a similar issues.

    There are some issues with the functions.php file on some old themes, so try a new theme and see if that fixes the issue.

    Hi stevealined,

    Glad to hear you got it resolved. I did go ahead and test in our core platform, and it seems to work fine. Thanks for checking in.

    Unfortunately, this issue is still not resolved for me.

    On KB6NU.Com, I’m running the latest version of WP eCommerce. In fact, I just updated it to the latest version just now. When I try to upload a product download, it looks like the upload occurs, and there’s no error message at all, but the product file never gets uploaded.

    So, I tried uploading the files directly to /wp-content/uploads/wpsc/downloadables, and can do this successfully via ftp, but when I click on the “Add existing files” button on the product page, but the recently uploaded files don’t show up as options.

    stevealined, this topic’s originator, mentioned that it might be a theme issue. Well, I changed my theme to the stock twentythirteen theme, and tried uploading again. Unfortunately, it’s working exactly the same way.

    This is really disturbing to me because I was previously able to assign a product download to a product by manually uploading the files, but now I can’t even do that. Can anyone help me here, or do I have to just abandon WP eCommerce?

    Thanks, Justin, but I I gave up on WP eCommerce and installed WooCommerce. I only had a dozen products or so, and it only took me about three hours to set it all up and get it running. I actually had the same problem with WooCommerce, i.e. wasn’t able to upload downloadable products, but WooCommmerce told me exactly why. Apparently WP will not upload .mobi or .epub files. WooCommerce gave me some kind of error message telling me this. WP eCommerce didn’t produce any error messages. It just didn’t upload the files.

    Apparently, there are some plug-ins that will allow WP to upload .mobi and .epub files, but I didn’t bother with those. I simply uploaded them to my site and then put the file path into the appropriate box on the products edit page.

    Hi. I’m having the same problem as stevealined except that when I upload the file, the “Select Existing Files” window is empty.

    The file is uploaded OK and I’ve checked it isn’t corrupted.

    But I get the “Sorry something has gone wrong with your download!” error just the same as stevealined.

    Also I noticed that when I delete a file in the control panel, the actual physical file isn’t deleted…

    I’d appreciate any help or advice.
