Hello,

Please go to your website preferences and find there currency label. So just paste your sekel label and it will appear on your widget.

Please, refer to attached screenshot.

Hey,

 

Thanks for getting back to me, however I have managed to sort out the currency myself. The only problem I have is that I want to be able to provide an instant download link to the customer once they pay. I asked whether your developers would be able to do this for me and I will pay extra money once this is done. however I was told that this could not be done. can you kindly confirm? 

 

in the meantime I`m doing the best I can to find my own solution, but I would love it if you can go the extra mile do it for me. as I said, I`m willing to pay.

 

Thanks,

Iommi

Wondering if there is a possibility of adding a color and size drop-down selector inside the shopping cart, or if there are any alternatives to selecting different colors of the same product before added to cart as my current project sells sneakers in different sizes and colors.

Thanks
