Setting up the forms in SDL and SDL2 templates
If your template folder includes a folder named "download" then you have an SDL or SDL2 style mp3 template model.
NOTES: In all SDL style templates, the 2CO link, once a client is "returned" to the download page, is coded or "hidden". The Paypal return link will be visible to the client after purchase is completed. For a more secure option you can check out the Payloadz website. Be sure to upload the included "robots.txt" to keep search engines out of the "download" folder.
SDL Type 1 Setup (-2007)
This info is for the SDL-Dwayne and SDL-Aluminum models only. Your "samples1.htm" will include probably 24 purchase buttons. SDL type 1 models are for selling each mp3 individually.
Zip up each of your full length mp3 files and place them in your template "download" folder.
Edit the "download-1.htm" with your info and check this page to be sure it is what you want users to see when they are sent to the "return" download page after a payment is completed.
Make a copy of the "download-1.htm" for each mp3 you are offering for sale. Name them for each zip file, -2 -3 -4 and so on.
Edit the link in each "download-1.htm" copy with the zip file link. EXAMPLE: Edit the "download-1.zip" link in the "download-2.htm" to "download-2.zip".
SDL Type 2 Setup (2008-)
This info is for the "SDL2" type models only. See the top of your template "help.html" to see if this is your model type. Your "samples1.htm" will also include only 2 purchase buttons. SDL2s are for selling mp3s in "album" groups.
Zip up each group or "album" of your full length mp3 files and place them in your template "download" folder. Example: Zip up the 12 (or however many mp3s you have) mp3s you are selling from the "samples1.htm" page. Name the zip file "download-1.zip".
Edit the "download-1.htm" with your info and check this page to be sure it is what you want users to see when they are sent to the "return" download page after a payment is completed.
Make a copy of the "download-1.htm" for each mp3 group or "album" you are offering for sale. Name them for each zip file, -2 -3 -4 for the 4 "download-?.zip" files that are to be "returned" to from the forms on the 4 template samples pages.
Edit the link in each "download-1.htm" copy with the zip file link. EXAMPLE: Edit the "download-1.zip" link in the "download-2.htm" to "download-2.zip".
