I think it is the best file seller component without need customers to login in and having an account. Keep up the good work and the excellent support with help forum and perfect documentation!

If you try to uninstall it, you will have the message "Direct Access to this location is not allowed" if you dont enable legacy mode.
so... very, very poor extension

Its not a bad extension although i did find it limited. For straight simple one off content dl then get this but for anything more try something else.

This extension does exactly what it says it will do. It even sends a file to the buyer in the email along with a redirect to your purchase page.
Only downfall was having to buy the manual just to find out what paypal codes I needed, but that's my problem and the Manual (for $2) answered my question right away! :)

Thank you!

I installed this and it worked OK right out of the box, no problems. It did not have quite all the functionality that I required so I uninstalled it and joomla only gave me a blank front page after this?? I reinstalled the component and the site worked again.Not a big issue in terms of space occupied by the component if the download files are deleted but...

Wow - Oli has a great component here, it does what it says!!! The manual was well put together and helped facilitate a great experience with this component - also very good for passing onto clients who will eventually configure their own items to sell.

Even though I had a minor issue - and this issue - only because I have godaddy hosting accounts which required a bit of tweaking, then bing bang boom it worked! I first posted on Oli's forum for my issue, within a few hours he responded... then within 24hrs he personally helped me to test my site and then I was up and running smoothly, and my clients are as ecstatic as I am!!!

Thanks again for the Great Manual! Great Support! And of course a great simple well thought out Component! and another wonderful experience of working with Joomla and its community!

I was looking for the right extension to sell some fotos and other stuff on a website. After testing a few a stumble to Pay to Download XT, the critics seem to be quite nice so I decided to try. After download and install I was a litle puzzel with the configuration on paypal, all the rest was quite simple and with a few clicks I had 5 produtcs ready to test. But Paypal return after payment was my problem so as everything was looking as explain I decided to pay the 1,99€ for the manual. Simple and fluente explanation, a few stepd on paypal and I has able to had everything working on the website.
I have to say that for me the manual has important to get paypal side working with the extension. Any way, a great extension for selling things on joomla 1.5. Thanks.

I had some initial problems getting this to work but it was all my own errors...and incorrect settings...I messeged Oli and he got back to me immediately and helped me get it working! I paid the $2 for the manual and it was well worth it! this component does EXACTLY what it says it will....its PERFECT! Thanks OLI!

Excellent extension. Very easy to use and hope to see improvements in the future. Good luck

The product is exactly what I am looking for but on trying it out found problems with the Paypal configuration. Waiting for support is now up to 1 week and two days, with only one out of three requests for assistance answered. A little worrying if it was relied upon as an up and running component.

It simply does not work well. There are installation and other problems, both for Joomla 1.5 and 1.0. Quick support but as incompetent as the component.

I'm very happy with this Component. I am using Joomla 1.58. I played with this for 10 minutes and it looks like this is exactly what I want and need. I will tomorrow do a test in a sandbox. I will buy the manual. Yet, I have found this to be very intuitive.

Thanks!

I am using that component for my own download site and I can only say: Thumbs up!

After ripping my hair out over the complexity and bugs in Virtue Mart (and never getting it to work properly with downloads), and then ripping my hair out over several other 'shopping cart' options I finally realized I didn't need all those bells and whistles and problems anyhow...I only need the user to be able to choose the audio tour and pay and download it...so I finally came across this component. It's clean and easy to install, easy to figure out. Worked like a charm right away. I did find that the plugin code will conflict with some other plugin codes in the content...so for my audio files to play I had to switch to a new audio player...and I had to move the plugin down to the last space on the plugin list...but after doing that it worked find in the content.

Good component for selling downloadable goods. I recommend paying the 1 euro ( less than a dollar right now) for the guide. Oli was very quick to reply to questions. Works as it should. Not too hard to configure. Good component.
Thanks to the developer (Oli).
Sincerely,

It is very easy to figure out the source directory path on the server where files are stored. Which in most cases is:

www.yoursite.com/components/com_p2dxt/data/filename.zip

so once the user download first page of the e-book (f.e.) named "page1.zip" then he can dowload the others pages till one houndred without any paying for the rest just changeing URLs in the adress line of the browser

www.yoursite.com/components/com_p2dxt/data/page2.zip

www.yoursite.com/components/com_p2dxt/data/page3.zip

etc

isn't that stupid?

my solution is to name files the way to not beeing so easly quessed

"page_one_rt002bf3.zip"
"page_two_fjtd3334.zip"

etc

I downloaded this component/plugin in the hope that I will be able to use it without any problem. I also paid for the user manual (This is the catch, the component/plugin doesn't explain anything.. so you have to buy quick guide to understand what it needs to configure).

After buying a quick guide, I noticed that some of the configuration parameters are not available for PayPal personal account. I tried to post my question on the support forum but no luck.

Very bad experience with this component/plugin.

...just a problem: you have to link your product to a menu.

But, however wonderful.

This is a very good module if you dont sell many things.

And the manual is worth the 1 euro.

Superb support, which surprised me since it is a free component.

Im gona donate more to the developer if a sell something :)

Had trouble with it initially, as I had an older version of joomla, and there was a conflict with php 4.
Through the forum, they did GREAT work, and I got better support and guidance than I would have if I'd bought an expensive commercial product. I donated a wee bit, and I'm not in a position to donate much. But I felt so strongly about the great service and component.
I'll be using this for my upcoming ebooks on my website, while my friends pay $100's for online stores. Between this and virtuemart, I'm set!!! Great job!
