How Do I link File to HikaShop?

Hello,

I already have my files on my server (using old cart). I now switched to HikaShop. How do I link product records from Hikashop to file downloads?

Also, when I click New Product, under Main Information column I see a URL box. How is this used?

Thanks in advanced,

Hi,

Should those files be only accessible after purchase ?
If so, you have two solutions:

1. Put your files in the folder media/com_hikashop/upload/safe via FTP and use the import function of hikashop to link your products and your files:
product_code,files
my_prod_1,"file_1.zip,file_2.doc"
my_prod_2,"file_3.tar.gz"
...etc...

2. Download your files and then user the "files" zone to upload them in your products.


If not, you can:
3. use the URL box option and put the link to the file (it will be displayed on the product page).
4. Directly put the link to the files in the product description.
