Redirect after purchase

    Hey Scott, love your plugin! One question : At the end of the transaction there’s a simple confirmation / CTA that the buyer clicks which initiates the file download however, the window closes after the download and they are left on the original “Buy Now” page. One issue is that if the user has their browser set to automatically download files, then there is no real strong way to inform them of a successful download. If they have the browser set to prompt them for file save location, the result is still the same except that they have this intermediate step to further ensure them that the process is successful. Is there a way to redirect the user to some custom page after the transaction? Thank you! -Shaun K

    Hi Shaun,

    I agree that can be an issue. My original logic when I built the plugin just to have it very simple and an all in one page/shortcode.

    I could make this a bit cleaner in a later version. I am not sure exactly how it would work though. Passing the URL to a different page isn’t hard – I could just use a WP hook or template redirect, the problem is putting a download button on the page. That page would require another shortcode, and that makes it a bit more complicated for most users of this plugin.

    I am working on a new plugin project right now which is taking a lot of my time, but I’ll give this some thought.

    Thanks for the positive feedback! I really appreciate it!

    If you have any other questions just let me know.

    Thanks,
    Scott
