Digital Download Link Not Being Sent

I’m having the same problem. I’ve exhausted myself for two days now looking for two simple actions-
1. where do I put the digital download url (where my ebook is parked on my site) in WP PayPal Shopping cart options

OR
where do i put the product url in the body of the email?

It seems this email process is more complicated than it should be. This should have taken 5 minutes to do.
It seems easier to put the url in the Thank You page the buyer is redirected to.
Can anyone with practical experience in this show me where i’m not getting this right?
Thanks in advance.

@ben.banks ~ Let me know if these links help.

you basically put the URL in your shortcode like this…

[wp_cart_button name=”My Download” price=”5.00″ file_url=”https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/ebook1.pdf”%5D

Hope this helps… my issue is the plugin actually SENDING the email with this link to the purchaser.

Thanks Justin. My question now is, where exactly do I put that?
The video in the link I’ve watched 6 times but I’m still uncertain as to where I put that.

you put the shortcode in your page or post within wordpress.

I’m following…
To be clear, this is the post or page that would be your initial ‘sell’ page; the page/post with the digital product listed
Or
would this be the page (ie the thank you page) that the customer is redirected to after the transaction?
and finally, wherever this code is, the WP Paypal plugin will find it and include it in the email sent to the customer?

Sorry, I’m a newbie of sorts with advanced WP functions. Thanks for your patience with these questions. This is the first obstacle I’ve come across in using WP.

Hi have any of you enabled Debug Mode? If you haven’t can you Enable Debug Mode. Create a test transaction and then check the log file. It should reveal any issue the plugin might find.

Let me know how you go.

Thank you

Here’s the only section that has any ‘failing’

But the sale goes through… just not getting the confirmation emails to either party.

I’m assuming the errors above have something to do with using a ‘coupon code’?

Please update the plugin. We have just applied an improvement for this in the plugin.
