Feature Request

    This is a feature request regarding Digital Downloads (or, gallery images in general).

    Having the ability to host the digital download file (or all of sunshine’s gallery images) on an external, third party site (google drive, dropbox, AWS/S3, etc.) would be a very welcomed feature. In order to keep my client’s hosting costs down (while maintaining reliability, speed and security) , I;m usually forced to chose a hosting plan that is fairly limited on storage. Usually, this isn’t a problem. However, once you start hosting hi-res digital files/zips, the storage requirements of each site skyrockets. Being able to integrate a third-party file hosting service into Sunshine, would be incredibly useful.

    With that being said (and without diving too deep into the code), are there any actions/hooks available (payment received, paypal/stripe payment success, etc.) that I would be able to use to then kick off an automated (sunshine based) email to my client informing them on where to go to download the ZIP file?

    After a few minutes of brainstorming, I’m thinking of adding a few additional custom fields to each gallery/post. This way, I’m able to save each gallery’s ZIP file location and any other pertinent info that I may need later down the road.

    Anyways, I’m curious to hear your feedback.

    Thanks!

    This is something I am working towards. The recent release of the Digital Downloads 2.0 add-on was a big step towards offsite file storage (specifically working towards AWS first). However, it is not yet available.

    Web hosts like HostGator are cheap and don’t have limits on file storage. Most Sunshine users so far don’t say they have any issues with file storage.

    There is this hook available:

    do_action( ‘sunshine_add_order_end’, $order_id, $data, $order_items );
