    Hi i’m eager to start selling ebooks using woocommerce but there are so many options. What i need help with is obviously security selling ebooks so i will list my questions below in number for easy answering

    1. Do i need to host my digital book offline ( Dropbox ) to protect piracy from capturing pdf location within wordpress site ?

    2. Does direct forced download solve the problem for question 1 above ?

    3. Do i need an extension for payment gateway such as paypal or stripe ?

    thanks in advance and any input on setting up my digtal books sales would be much appreciated.

  • You might want Waterwoo or Woocommerce PDF Stamper.

    Also forced downloads will hide the file urls but they will be able to guess where they are if they’re really wanting to pirate…I have just asked about hiding that you might want to follow this convo:

    Also you need a .htaccess with “options -indexes” on its own line in your wordpress root to prevent people browsing your uploads directory and grabbing the files.

    Paypal is already a part of Woocommerce, you just need to set up an SSL :). If you want something else you can set that up too it’s just personal preference and what your customer base expects.
