Add a product, paste a shortcode on any existing page or post, and customers can buy without ever leaving that page or going through a cart. **Core scenario, no paid add-on required:** 1. Create a product (price, one file, optional custom checkout fields). 2. Add `[hellion_product id="123"]` to any page or post — inline or as a popup. 3. Customer pays with Stripe or PayPal, right there on the page. 4. They land on a protected, time-/count-limited download link and get the same link by email. You get an email too. #### Features * Shortcode-based checkout, inline or popup, no page builder or block editor lock- in * Stripe and PayPal, called directly (no bundled SDK, so it wonÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ t clash with other plugins that also bundle payment SDKs) * Protected file delivery: download links are token-based, not a public URL, with a configurable download-count and expiry limit per order * Custom checkout fields (text / email / textarea / checkbox / select), configurable globally or per product * Editable email templates (WYSIWYG) with placeholder tags for customer name, product, download link, order details, and more * Orders screen with search, status filter, manual status/limit changes, and per- order details * Sales analytics (revenue, orders, downloads) with day/week/month presets and a custom date range with period-over-period comparison * Built to be extended: a documented set of actions/filters lets add-ons hook in without touching core files, and third-party add-ons donÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t need to modify this pluginÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s code or database tables #### What this plugin does not include Coupons, multiple file versions per product, subscriptions/recurring billing, multi- currency, VAT/tax reporting, license-key delivery, abandoned-cart recovery, and additional payment gateways are out of scope for this free plugin — the plugin registers real extension points for these, so they can be added by add-ons without forking core. ### External services This plugin connects to third-party services to process payments and, only if you configure it, verify payment webhooks. No data is sent to these services unless you enable the corresponding gateway in Settings Payments. * **Stripe** — when Stripe is enabled and a customer checks out with it, the order amount, currency, and an internal order ID are sent to StripeÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ s API (`api.stripe.com`) to create a Payment Intent, and the customerÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá:’ s payment details are collected by StripeÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s own embedded Payment Element (your site never sees card numbers). StripeÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s webhook calls back to this site to confirm payment. See [StripeÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s Privacy Policy](https://stripe.com/privacy) and [Terms of Service](https://stripe.com/legal). * **PayPal** — when PayPal is enabled, the same order data is sent to PayPalÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s API (`api-m.paypal.com` or the sandbox equivalent) to create and capture an order, and the PayPal JS SDK is loaded from `paypal.com` to render the payment buttons. See [PayPalÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s Privacy Policy](https://www.paypal.com/privacy) and [Legal Agreements](https://www.paypal.com/legalhub). Loading Stripe.js and the PayPal SDK from the providers’ own domains is a requirement of both providers (self-hosting these scripts is against their terms and unsupported) and is unrelated to any tracking by this plugin itself. ### Third-party libraries * **Chart.js** (used for the Analytics chart) — MIT License. Bundled locally with this plugin (`includes/Admin/assets/vendor/chart.umd.js`); not loaded from a CDN. ## Àwọn àwòrán ìbòjú [⌊Product edit screen with price, file, and checkout field settings.⌉⌊Product edit screen with price, file, and checkout field settings.⌉[ Product edit screen with price, file, and checkout field settings.

Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/hellion-shortcode-digital-sales`, or install through the Plugins screen in WordPress directly. 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen. 3. Go to **Hellion Shortcode Digital Sales Settings** and set your currency and at least one payment gateway (Stripe and/or PayPal). 4. Go to **Hellion Shortcode Digital Sales Products** and add a product with a price and a file. 5. Copy the shortcode shown on the product and paste it into any page or post. If your server runs Nginx rather than Apache, the pluginÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s automatic`. htaccess` protection for uploaded product files does not apply — add a rule to your server config to deny direct access to `wp-content/uploads/hellion-shortcode-digital- sales-files/`, for example: ``` location /wp-content/uploads/hellion-shortcode-digital-sales-files/ { deny all; } ``` ## FAQ ### Do I need WooCommerce or another e-commerce plugin? No. Hellion Shortcode Digital Sales is a standalone checkout for a single product per shortcode — no cart, no separate store pages. ### Can I sell more than one file per product, or offer subscriptions/coupons? Not in this version. The plugin is built so these can be added by add-ons without modifying this pluginÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s core files or database tables. ### Where are uploaded files stored, and are they public? Files are stored in `wp-content/uploads/hellion-shortcode-digital-sales-files/` and are blocked from direct access (via `.htaccess` on Apache; see the Installation section for Nginx). Customers only ever get a token-based download link, never the fileÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s real path. ### What happens if a download link expires or reaches its limit? The customer sees a clear message explaining why, not a generic error. An admin can manually extend the limit or expiry for a specific order from the Orders screen. ## Àwọn àgbéyẹ̀wò Kò sí àwọn àgbéyẹ̀wò fún plugin yìí. ## Àwọn Olùkópa & Olùgbéejáde “Hellion Shortcode Digital Sales” jẹ́ ètò ìṣàmúlò orísun ṣíṣí sílẹ̀.

Product files now upload correctly. * Fix: the shortcode for a product was never actually shown anywhere, despite the Installation instructions telling you to copy it. It now appears on the product edit screen once the product is published. * If a product file upload does fail (oversized file, server permissions, etc.), an admin notice now explains why instead of failing silently. #### 0.1.0 * Initial release. ## Àkójọpọ̀ Meta * Ẹ̀yà **0.1.3** * Ìgbàgbọ́hùn tó kẹ́yìn **ọ̀sẹ̀ 2 sẹ́yìn** * Àwọn ìgbéwọlẹ̀ tó ṣiṣẹ́ **Tó kéré sí 10** * Ẹ̀yà WordPress ** 7.0 tàbí ju bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ ** * Dánwò dé **7.0.4** * Ẹ̀yà PHP ** 8.0 tàbí ju bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ ** * Àwọn èdè * [English (US)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/hellion-shortcode-digital-sales/) àti [Russian](https://ru.wordpress.org/plugins/hellion-shortcode-digital-sales/). * [Túmọ̀ sí èdè rẹ](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/hellion-shortcode-digital-sales) * Àwọn àmì * [digital downloads](https://yor.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/digital-downloads/) [paypal](https://yor.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/paypal/)[shortcode](https://yor.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/shortcode/) [stripe](https://yor.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/stripe/) * [Ìwòye Tó Péye](https://yor.wordpress.org/plugins/hellion-shortcode-digital-sales/advanced/) ## Àwọn ìbò Kò sí ìwádìí tí a tíì fi ránṣẹ́.
