Soft Goods is a complete and secure solution for selling downloadable products with Miva Merchant. Files are stored in your Miva data directory (by default, you may also serve downloads from other locations, even a remote server), never in a public accessible directory. When an order is placed, if the order contains products which have been setup as soft goods, a unique download URL is generated for each product. This URL may be displayed above/below the invoice, and/or be sent in a separate configurable email. The URL is only valid for the maximum download attempts and/or maximum minutes you specify in admin.

Download URLs can be issued automatically or manually. You can also configure which payment modules should trigger automatic URLs, and downloads for manually approved payment methods can be approved in admin via a searchable console.

• maximum download attempts
• maximum minutes download is available
• selective payment modules to be used for auto vs manually approved downloads
• configurable display of download URLs on invoice
• configurable download emails
• attribute-based downloads (the file to download may optionally vary depending on the selected option of a radio or drop-down list attribute)
• product specific messages included in emails
• console with advanced search filters for manually approving downloads
• manually generated download URLs from the edit products screen
• failed attempts log which can be viewed and purged in admin

Note: This module works in conjunction with a PHP script, so your server must have PHP installed (most hosting providers do, but be sure to check with your host before purchasing if you aren't sure). Also, though this module is backwards compatible for 3.x versions of Merchant, it requires ver. 3.9 or higher of the Miva Engine.
