That's the order creation email. It's normal that you don't get the download link in it.
You will get it in the order status notification email when the order will be confirmed.
If you want to auto confirm free orders, there is a plugin that you need to publish which is called "hikashop validate free orders". PLease make sure that it is published on your website.

Getting better but...

I installed the "Hikashop validate free orders" plug-in and enabled it. Now when I ordered the free product, I got a **confirmation** email but still no download link. See quote:

"Hi Shaun Leahy,

*We are pleased to confirm the creation of your order No. D6A9 ( [ www.team-bp.co.uk/index.php?option=com\_h...=order&amp;task=show&amp;cid](http://www.team-bp.co.uk/index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=order&task=show&cid)\[\]=69&amp;Itemid=117 ) at [ www.team-bp.co.uk/](http://www.team-bp.co.uk/) on the 27 July 2012 at 12:37*

[then product details]

*Your order will be processed as soon as we receive your payment.

Once again, thank you for your order at [ www.team-bp.co.uk/](http://www.team-bp.co.uk/). We hope to see you again soon."*

Does "free product" type need to be enabled somewhere?
Does the file need to be stored somewhere specific on media manager?
Thanks again

Replace the file media/com_hikashop/mail/order_creation_notification.html.php by the one in the archive included and it should work.

Thanks, I installed the file you sent.

This new Download facility is slightly hidden, though is good if users find it. However both people I sampled did not click on the product details for the download facility: instead they clicked "Add to cart" from the category page, which does not work.

I renamed the product to give instructions, to give a chance that users click on the product instead of clicking "Add to cart". But "Add to Cart" still does not work, it sill sends a "confirmed order email" stating:

"Your order will be processed as soon as we receive your payment" for free product.

The add to cart buttons are working for me on your category page.

If you want to change the text in the email, like for any text in HikaShop, you can use translation overrides:
