    Hi,

    I hope I am not bothing that much. I am new to this, but excited to learn and share whenever I can. Actually I am a QA, Testing professional, but this time I am trying to get into dev a little, wish me luck.!

    The questions are these:

    I am building a site for selling downloadable ebooks and when creating the page for products I have several challenges;

    1. How can I upload 1900+ products to the product page? any bulk upload? the products are on the gallery and consists of a txt ebook and a separate image file for that ebook.
    2. Can I post the download link for the ebook to show the ebook name and the image below it, (do I just insert the image as media and then insert the download separately, 1 by 1?)
    How do I create a login or is there a widget that handles this?

    Please help me I am VERY new to this, but am willing to learn a lot. I am using the easy-digital-downloads plugin with the Paypal payment option.

    Thank you very much for your assitance.
    Juan

  • Hi there,

    I’m really sorry for the long delay here.

    1. It’s important to note that each product is a download entry much like a new post or a new page. So while I understand you’re asking from the perspective of uploading the actual files, the real focus here is creating the download entries (whether they have a file or not). Unless you are transferring these products from another eCommerce platform and have a CSV file, they will all have to be created. We can go into more detail here once I know more about your situation, though.

    2. Yes, this is possible. You can learn about all of these features and shortcodes here: https://docs.easydigitaldownloads.com/collection/168-getting-started

    It sounds like you just need to get familiar with how the system works. So I’d say start by creating a test WordPress site and install EDD (if you haven’t already) and just play around with the features to get a feel for what can be done.
