I am hoping to move away from Magento. I learned about AbanteCart just this weekend. I have it installed and am really liking it so far.
What I would like to do is this:
Product A has options - can be a PDF download or a physical product.
PDF should be available immediately after purchase and should have no shipping charge.
Physical product should have a shipping charge.
I have figured out creating product with the options, but it seems to be charging shipping even on the digital download. I don't want to add the cost in the product cost for the physical item because international rates would be different.
I wonder if I am missing a setup option to configure this correctly.
Hello.
In AbanteCart product options and downloads are separated. To add pdf download to your product be available after purchase Create new download with Activated Immediately or On Order Status
read this short manual http://docs.abantecart.com/pages/catalog/global_downloads.html
For the product shipping charges you can set your product to Require Shipping OFF on the product edit page in admin
