Have you heard of Easy Digital Downloads? Well you have now.

It’s the easiest platform to use for selling downloadable products. It integrates easily with Affiliate WP for affiliate programs and Restrict Content Pro for membership sites.

SFNdesign is a trusted consultant for EDD. Which means they think we know what we’re doing and can build you an awesome solution.

But wait, who is Pippin? I mean he’s mentioned in the title right? Pippin is the lead developer/founder/guru behind EDD.

Sure it’s a bit technical but we love to use Vagrant for our client sites. Using Vagrant means that we can start up new servers and on board new team members fast.

We particularly love VVV as a way to get our projects off the ground quick.

Curtis even wrote a few tutorials about using VVV.

  1. Working with WordPress and Vagrant – Basics
  2. Vagrant and Custom Domains with WordPress
  3. Adding a new domain to an existing VVV box
  4. Connecting to MySQL in Vagrant with Sequel Pro

Yeah you read that right, sometimes we use WooCommerce and don’t actually sell products with it.

So why on earth do we use it?

Well if you need a product catalogue you usually need all the ‘product’ features of WooCommerce without the checkout process. So why roll all the product features custom?

We wouldn’t that would be stupid and waste everyone’s time.

Instead we remove the purchase buttons and add a pre-filled inquiry form.
