Hello,
I'm a Hikashop Essential user, I bought this version for the Non registered user function.
In my site I sell a lot of downloadable content, but even if I set to Non registered user the link that the buyer receive require registration.
What can I do?

Hi,
Even if you use a "guest" checkout, your customers will receive some order notification emails where he will be able to find the link to download his product.

Yes, that's right, the only problem is that the link send to a login page, where there's written that you need to be registered to download the files.

Hi,

There is no solution with the download of files system of HikaShop.
As stated in the documentation of the "Registration" option of the configuration, the "guest" / "no registration" mode shouldn't be used for virtual goods as the system requires the user to have an account in order to make sure that he bought the order for which he is downloading the file.

We started to implement something in HikaSerial in order to use a "serial" for the security check. The development is not completed because we had some troubles to replace all download links in the front-end and in the emails.
So I started to work on something similar but directly in HikaShop, it will detect the guest checkout mode and read an extra parameter if so.
The extra parameter will be the email used for the guest, so using all information we will be sure that we can provide the file to the user even if he is not logged.

This feature is currently under development but it should be ready for the next HikaShop release (this month).

Ok, it's really unfortunatelly...
May I ask you if it's possible to alter the link URL format that Hikashop sends to buyer?
In fact if I instead of uploading a file insert just the link, Hikashop show the right link, but alter it adding this url string: index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=order&task=download&file_id=71&order_id=190&Itemid=327.
Is it possible to tell Hikashop just to not alter the original url of the file?

Hi,

I am sorry but I do not understand what you are asking for.
But I can tell you that the development of the feature is completed and will be integrated in the next release.

Wow!
That's really cool! I can't wait!

For now I reactivated the registration (I actually bought the Essential just to have guest mode... T_T).

What I tried to do (I tried twiking your core) was to modify the order mail (in the order_admin_notification.preload) file, trying to modify the url to download the file that was being sent, but I actually failed.

I'll wait your release.

Thank you for your great help!
