I have this site where visitors can pay for certain digital goods, after which they'll be presented with a download link. These downloads links last for a week before they die and become useless
I want to allow users to purchase items without having to create an account first, but just by supplying the payment details and email. I figured I could send the download link to their email once paid, but this is kind of problematic if they accidentally specific an incorrect email when paying.
Any suggestions on how best to accomplish this?
I've made such a purchase on a site called WrapBootstrap (https://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/flatboard-angularjs-admin-frontend-WB0G434G7). It integrates with PayPal in that they are navigated to PayPal, pay, and when they return, PayPal notified the site the payment was successful and then WrapBootstrap displays the download link.
I liked how seamless it was but what I found was if I ever wanted to download an item again, I didn't have a personal record of it (either in email or account). One drawback from a non-account perspective. Check it out and let me know if that answers your question.

We have generated one RSS feed and submitted to itunes few months ago. Now we realised we have added the wrong email. So can we update the email id in our rss feed? If we update in our rss feed, Do we need to submit again? please let us know about this. Thank you.
<itunes:owner>
<itunes:name>FeedForAll</itunes:name>
<itunes:email>abc#abc.com</itunes:email>
</itunes:owner>
Here is a snippet from Apples's doco on podcast rss feeds...
<itunes:owner>
The podcast owner contact information.
Include the email address of the owner in a nested <itunes:email> tag
and the name of the owner in a nested <itunes:name> tag.
Note: The <itunes:owner> tag information is for administrative
communication about the podcast and isn’t displayed in Apple Podcasts.
Please make sure the email address is active and monitored.
Once Apple has verified the ownership and quality of your rss feed (i.e. through the podcast submission process) then your podcast is active in their directory.
From that point you are free to update your feed however you like, as long as your updates continue to conform to Apple's rss feed requirements.
In this case, if you update the value of the <itunes:email> then the change should automatically be picked up during the next feed refresh. i.e. you shouldn't need to resubmit.
Note: you should still use a valid email address in that tag so that people can contact you if there are issues with your feed, or they genuinely want to get in touch, etc. If you are worried about spam, then perhaps use an email address that different from your day-to-day address. i.e. One that you can access/check when you need to but that won't bother you if it gets hit with spam. You can drop in there and check it/clear it out occasionally as needed.
Also worth thinking about. Other podcast directories sometimes rely on email addresses in rss feeds in order to verify ownership. E.g. this is how Google uses it...
Step 3: Verify ownership
After you’ve submitted your RSS feed, review the email address used to
verify ownership of your podcast. To verify that you own the podcast
content you’re adding, you need to have an email address in the
<googleplay:email> or <itunes:email> field of your podcast’s RSS feed.
Click Send verification code. Check the email account listed for your
verification email. Visit the link included in the email to complete
the verification process.
I am working on a college project which is a website in which i am buying some products from customer or user. So i want to pay them for the stuff that i buy from them.
But directly providing them cash instead i want a wallet system in which i can transfer money in their wallet so that there will be a proof of our transaction.
Is there any plugin in wordpress which can solve my above problem. Since i am new in wordpress so i don't know how to achieve this.
Please tell me that whether should i be able to achieve this type of wallet system or not?
So essentially you want to buy products from customers and pay them for that but without actually giving them cash.
Here are my thoughts about this and possible solutions:
Without a website:
You can easily use Paypal to do this without any website and therefore you will be able to send money using your Paypal account to their Paypal account with any cash transaction (Paypal keep all records of the transaction so you can use it for finance).
With a website:
You install some plugins that will turn your website into a multi vendors market Where users can sell their products directly inside your website. This solution will offer functionalities similar to famous sites like Amazon and eBay. Choosing this solution will allow your customers to sell you services or products and they get paid to their Paypal account despite the payment method you use (except cash), this way the transactions will be happening using electronic wallets which in this example PayPal and all records for transactions will be logged.
The last note is, depending on how much manual work you want to do the solutions will vary.
You may need some assistance o building such a website. Contact me if you need help.
Thanks.
I'm creating website in WordPress. Idea is to show users sign up email subscribe form in welcome page and when user subscribes they redirects to home page, but user can't go to the home page second time because he/she already subscribed.
I cannot speak for GetResponse or MailChimp, but AWeber automatically prevents people from signing up to your list a second time. If you'd like, you can set a custom already subscribed page from within a sign up form created with our generator. You can find directions for that here:
https://help.aweber.com/hc/en-us/articles/204027726-How-Do-I-Set-an-Already-Subscribed-Page-
If you're using our API to add subscribers from your site, we will give back a 400 response with the message "Subscriber already subscribed." should you try to add someone that's already on your list. You could catch that exception and direct the user to your already subscribed page or to your homepage.

Shopify used to allow you to style the checkout process through a CSS file. However, they have now removed this option.
I've developed a Shopify App for a customer that requires that ALL customers digitally sign a form before payment. The form asks specific questions, and must be presented in a specific way, with a specific font. In their country it is illegal to sell online without sending your customers through this process. Everything is sent over TLS etc.
On the form, a customer is asked their name, delivery address, billing address, etc. The products are listed and followed by a ton of legal text.
The difficulty is, as soon as the customer goes to checkout - they are then able to change their delivery and billing address, thus rendering the form null and void.
My initial thought was to simply hide the customer billing and delivery information from the checkout using CSS. However, I'm unable to do this because Shopify no longer grant access to the style sheet.
Does anyone know of a way around this?
We're looking at a requirement to track a users journey through a Tridion-managed website, then be able identify this user as a "prospect" based on this behaviour and then trigger an email to this user if they dont return after X number of days.
Can SmartTarget "track" a user journey between pages out-the-box or would it require some sort of custom Ambient Data Framework cartridge?
The older P&P module did this kind of tracking but I don't recall there being away to use that data in an Outbound Email triggered mail - so send an email when a tracking count for user got above a certain figure?
Cheers
SmartTarget nor P&P is not going to help you here.
Because your requirement is sending an email you need you user to be an audience manager user,
you could do the tracking in ADF and then have that update an extended detail for the user when the threshold is reached,
Create a Dynamic Distribution list on the ext. detail en create a triggered mailing on that list
To do this "out of the box" is a long standing wish of mine, might be possible in the future :)
