one-off downloads

ZC v. 1.3.9

Hi guys,

First, Hat's off to the ZC team and everyone whose work we have been benefitting from. Thanks!

I have some downloadable products in my store which were previously being sold on disk in our brick&mortar shop. Occasionally, someone comes in and wants an upgrade, or for some reason we want to extend a copy for free. I'm tired of burning disks for them so I want to try to do one of the following:

1. create a coupon for use with a specific product only. It would entitle the user to one free download.

2. create a separate free downloadable product with a cryptic name that cannot be navigated to via any means other than typing the cryptic name into the search bar. (we would, then, change the name every few weeks to keep people from unlimited sharing)

Note: I have seen the awesome work being done on the subscriptions module in the add-ons section.

I'd love to implement it but nearly all my customers use mac.

I am looking for document/software-copy-protection—lite, in other words, I'm not as concerned with perfect security as I am with the appearance of professionalism.

Is there any way to do one of these two things?

A.D.

Hey, never mind. I found a mod called Hide Categories that will work fine.

I am still interested in full subscription/copy protection for mac users.
