Restrict Digital Downloads [Support Thread]

[RixStix]

I'm gonna have to wipe everything and start from scratch.

Yes I am using one of Anne's templates. Made the edit for get_template.

Create new temp digital download product category
Create new product within that category
Add attribute for download pdf file and associate a pdf to that attribute
Add attribute for "Email the file to me"
attribute option type is "Checkbox" (a couple products contain multiple download files)
Is the checkbox the source of my headache?

I get the yellow alert message but am still able to add the product to the cart regardless of chosen attribute.

Checkout and receive the download link immediately.

DarN. It may be a day or two before I have the time to start from scratch. Physical Christmas orders are a bit more pressing.

How dumb can a person feel?
Can I claim a "DUH" moment?

Repeat after me a kazillion times....

Radio, Radio, Radio. NOT checkbox, NOT checkbox, NOT checkbox.

Our initial reason for using checkbox is that we have a couple products which have 2 or more pdf associated with the product.
More reason for me to redo things.

Things appear to work when I use the proper setup. Says he with egg completely covering face.

When the product was using a checkbox attribute, was it that the product (without the checkbox-option) was added to the cart? I tested using a checkbox-type attribute, thinking that there might be a product that could be either physical (unchecked) or virtual (checked).

download file attribute can be added to cart if checked, regardless of warning.

product with no checkbox selected can be added to cart
product with download attribute selected can be added to cart
product with "email it to me" attribute selected can be added to cart

OK, so there's still something funny going on with the checkbox-type options. What happens if you "convert" that option to a radio-button (especially since the checkbox-type option values are independent)?
