Thank you in advance for your help!")* Hi, When you come back from paypal, the order is not yet validated by Paypal (using the IPN), so the order is not yet confirmed. Paypal will trigger your website using the IPN system and set the order as confirmed. Once the order confirmed, the customer will be able to download the private files thanks to his user control panel (there is a download section) or directly in his order (in the user control panel too, or thanks to the confirmation email). But first, you have to check that the order is right confirmed by paypal. If the order is not confirmed, it won't be possible to download the file.

And is the download link only in the e-mail that they get sent after they make a payment and the payment is confirmed? Thank you very much and I really love Hikashop.

You'll be able to enable your customer download space, through the "Enable customer download area" option of your "Hikashop->System->Configuration->'Main'" page. The download space will allow your customer to see all their available download files and download them until they reach the download limit. This download will be available through the "User control panel" which will just be a joomla menu item with a Type set to "User control panel". 2. Yes, the download link will only be displayed on your order confirmation email.
