Download Order Status makes no sense

[jeffryf]

I have downloads (some PDFs, some MP3, some streaming audio) that are set to expire after 1 day or 2 downloads. Yet when I look orders that have been completed, on all of the downloads the flag is green indicating the item is Available. Two questions:

(1) Does a green flag (Available) mean that the customer continues to have access to the download? For obvious reasons, I don't want this to be the case.

(2) Shouldn't ZenCart automatically flip the flag the yellow (Expired) once the day and number counts have been exceeded?

(Sorry in advance if this has been posted elsewhere, I just couldn't find anything that comes close.)

Did you click the Download link? When expired it should take you to the download_time_out page explaining that it has expired ...

What version Zen Cart are you running?

Clean install or an upgrade? If an upgrade, how did you upgrade?

Thanks for the prompt response.

I've just implemented a fresh install of ZC.

As far as I know, the Download button displays the time-out message (this from a customer who timed out).

My question is about the Customer's Order page. For example, when I look at the order placed by the customer who timed out, the Download Order Status is flagged as Available (green) for the product. This makes no sense to me. I would think that ZC should flip the flag when download access times out.

Am I missing something?

Best regards,
Jeffry

Are you referring to the orders.php in the Admin?

[jeffryf]

Yes. orders.php?page=1&oID=27&action=edit

I see what you are referring to ...

You are wanting the links to also show expired based on the order itself expiring and not just the count expiring ...

Let me see what I can come up with for a future update ...

Thanks!

EDITED: Moving to bugfixes 'cause it bugs me now ...

Thanks a bunch. But a question...

I didn't know that orders expired independently of the days/counts setting on downloads. Is there an order expiration setting I missed somewhere?

[Ajeh]

7 days max is based on 7 days from the order date ...

That expires the download ...

You can however reactivate it ...

Currently, the legend is not reflecting when the expiration happens based on the order purchase date ...

[jayzn]

So how do you reactivate it?

Can you expand on this thought?

If you have 7 days and 5 downloads that is when the expiration happens on the download ...

Switching the order to Updated status will change the download(s) to active ...

Clicking on the icon next to the download will change the status on a given download ...
