Was this information Helpful?

Hi there,

I'm trying to use ubercart as the showcase for a series of products that won't be available for sale. I chose Ubercart becuase it allows easy management of the products, and easy. linear input by the end user. I'm have a toruble finding the following:

Can I link a PDF manual or brochure to the product easily? I'm thinking the same way i attach an image the the product I could attach a brochure or manual. Is this something that others have done or could offer direction on?

Thanks,

David

Re: PDF Manual linked to Product

You can use CCK with the FileField module. This will allow you to attach and upload files to your products.

You can then theme the output of your node to display custom text and a PDF icon (for example).

Re: PDF Manual linked to Product

When creating a product, you have the SKU info and the image upload, pricing, etc. Below that there is a line item for "file attachments" where you can attach files that people can access and download right from the product page itself without purchasing anything. (I think anyway)

try that and see if that helps you . . .

I'm such an idiot, I forgot that the products are essentially page with a different view. that worked perfectly. Thanks to you both!
