Hi again,
I used the file manager in the control panel. clicked on the public_html folder there and created a new folder called ebooks. I opened this folder and uploaded the .zip files there. If I write the URL to this folder + the filename in the browser, the popup window with the .zip file pops up as it should.
I used this link also in my download page and asked a friend to try to download the product and he was able to do that.
The dropdown menu I am talking about is inside the Soho Shopping Cart under the edit and advanced tab. There you can select to deliver the product instantly upon payment. In this dropdown menu my .zip files are not shown.
Best Regards
