Hi.

The page is selling digital downloads for a small fee. When buying the download, the customer gets the link in an e-mail and the link appears in the download area. The customer has 24 hours to do the download and can do it several times in that period.
The problem is when the customers buys the same download again later. Then he will get a valid link in the e-mail but the link in the download area is not open. It's like the download area does not acknowledge the new purchase and even though it shows the link and the 'Last purchased at' date, the link is not open, and the message 'Download period has elapsed' is there.

So in short:
With a new purchase of the same download later when the first download period is elapsed, the customer can download from the e-mail but not from the download area, as the download link is not open there.

Just wanted to add to the above:

I think the download area is a very valuable feature. You don't have to wait for the email and get instant access to your downloads, plus you have a list of all your downloads in one place.

Hi,

We will check with a configuration like yours (25 hours of download time limit) but I will highly recommend you to right configure the parameter "upload secure folder". With the current value I don't think that the download will succeed.

Hi Jerome

Thank you for checking this out.

Regarding the "upload secure folder" parameter:
This links to another server and is fully functioning. I saw no reason to publish the link here so I took it out.

Kind regards

Hi Aegir,
Sorry for the late reply, I just succeed to reproduce your issue and made a fix, can you edit the file : "*YourWebSite\\components\\com\_hikashop\\views\\user\\tmpl\\**downloads.php***".

And change the line : Code:

if(!empty($this-&gt;download_time_limit) &amp;&amp; ($this-&gt;download_time_limit + $downloadFile-&gt;order_created) &lt; time()) {

By : Code:

if(!empty($this-&gt;download_time_limit) &amp;&amp; ($this-&gt;download_time_limit + $downloadFile-&gt;max_order_created) &lt; time()) {

Hi Mohamed

Thank you for working on this issue.

I followed the instructions, but for me it's not quite working yet, even though there is a small progress:
As I recall, there was no active link before on the "Show the downloads" page for the item in question.
Now there is an active link on the "Show the downloads" page, but once clikked, there is the message: &gt;&gt; Download period has elapsed and on this page ([ worldoftextures.com/index.php/user-contr...e\_id-696/order\_id-61](http://worldoftextures.com/index.php/user-control-panel/order/download/file_id-696/order_id-61)) there is nio active link.
The customer download link in the e-mail works, as before, but the link in the notification e-mail to the administrator returns the administrator login page for the site. Can't remember if that was the case before.

If it helps, I can give you back-end access to the site.

Kind regards
Aegir

I am having the exact same problem, so... perhaps you should be releasing a fix of this?

Should I do the same thing, download that file and replace it on my installation?
