    help question missing filename for downloadables

    Great software! I'm trying to figure out one problem I'm having. I finally had a chance to set up my downloadables. I wanted to store them off the web root so I stored them in a directory off the web root and updated the includes/configure.php with the absolute path of the downloadables directory: define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', /absolutePathToDownloadables/);

    During testing, the link to one of the files that I purchased was displayed after I checked out but the other link didn't display. I'm not getting any errors about downloadable files missing.

    So I looked at the Downloads Manager, all of the filenames have a little red dot by them. Thus, I temporarily copied them to the standard location, downloads/, and modified and uploaded the configure.php file but they still are flagged as missing filename. Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Idea or Suggestion Re: missing filename for downloadables

    I just tested again with the files in the standard location and off the directory root and everything works. However, the red dot by the filenames in the downloads manager is disconcerting.

    Did you update both configure.php files?

    /admin/includes/configure.php

    You are most welcome ... thanks for the update that you had just missed the setting in one of the two configure.php files ...
