[CLOSED] Newsletter link to downloads - Digital Goods

Site Admin Joined: Jul 18, 2005 Posts: 373

I have a custom download area (Digital Goods) and in the set up it allows you to enter the name of an alternative download module but I have had zero success in getting this to work at all.
Is there any specific syntax I should??
I have just been entering the name of the module folder with variations uppercase/lowercase etc to try to get it working.

I am not familiar with the tool that you are referring to, so do not know if the following is going to work (might have a different data model for downloads), but you really need to understand what the table name is for your Digital Goods download module.

For example, the base nuke comes as nuke_downloads_downloads (the prefix can be changed). NSN Script's downloads module comes with nuke_nsngd_downloads. So, if you were wanting to use the NSN Scripts downloads module instead of the the default that is provided, you would change the "downloads" to "nsngd" in the "Main Config" for the HTML Newsletter.

If the Digital Goods tool you are using has a different table naming convention and/or the fields have different names than the base Nuke, then it would take a customization on your part to the code that builds the "Latest News".

OK, so from what you have posted, the code prefixes 'nuke_' and appends '_downloads' to whatever I type in the the downloads configuration box on the set up page. That makes sense now.

Yes I appreciate my table structure is probably different and as a none coder I am in for a long haul on this one but if I should manage to complete it I'll send you the amended code so you can perhaps use it as an add-on for you basic script for anyone else that is using E-Solution from www.nukeroyal.com.

Excellent work by the way!
