Ability to download multiple formats from a single drop down?

Zen Cart 1.3.9d

I am selling downloadable embroidery files in multiple formats. Currently, I have the formats set up as an attribute (Option name Format) and then a drop down with all the available file types.

Currently this requires the buyer select a single file format before checking out. However, many embroiderers have multiple machines that require different formats. And many buyers will fail to select a format other than the default or select the wrong one.

Is there a way to provide a drop down so that any file can be downloaded after purchase? Or must I create a radio button for each format?

Thanks!

Depends on if you want to sell each format or sell the item and provide that they can download all formats???
You can see one option in a default cart HERE

Re: Ability to download multiple formats from a single drop down?

Thanks for the reply. I'd like to sell the item and then they can download anything they want/need.

I changed the drop down to a check box set. And a second set of attributes for color sequences and any extra stuff with all of these options set to default on.

I can't access my site at this moment, but if you check the "Embroidery Collections" and then "Hardanger," you can see:

After reading your post, it occurred to me I could enable all the Format options. Is there a way to do that en masse?

Thanks, Lindee

I decide to buy Hardanger for $49.95 ... are you saying I can pick 1 or all formats for $49.95? :unsure:

Note: I get a lot of 500 errors on your site
