the user is unable to see the link to the product, however once the product has downloaded the link is exposed. is there a way to hide the link? or to download from temp folder then delete it?
P.S. If you want to limit a number of allowed downloads, go to a product variant details page, uncheck 'Unlimited download' under 'Downloadable product' and set maximum number of allowed downloads to 1. Is it what you're looking for?
Lets say i have a product to download at www.store.com/product.rar once the user paid and downloaded the file, the link above is being exposed. the user can publish the link for others and they can download the file directly.
