## Description

WooCommerce Downloadable Product Update Emails. This plugin can be used to send 
emails to customers who bought a WooCommerce downloadable product; letting them 
know that there’s been an update to their download. Never let customers guess if
an edition of the e-book they bought or other product they bought has been updated.
No more need to manually email customers about downloadable product updates or creating
a new product.

#### Pro Version

Take a look at the Pro version for more functionality including HTML Emails, Variable
Product Support and more!

## FAQ

  Installation Instructions

 1. Upload the plugin folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install the
    plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
 3. Use the Settings->Product Update Emails screen to configure the plugin

  Email sends as wordpress.example.com

I used wp_mail in the plugin so you could easily override the default send from 
email using an SMTP plugin such as: https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-smtp/

  HTML Email Templates?

Available in Pro version of plugin.

  What are Email Bursts?

Used for setting the amount of emails addresses to grab and send emails to every
time the scheduled time hits.

  What Happens if I set the email bursts amount to more than 10?

In theory there should be no problem with this. But if you are on shared hosting
it’s recommended that you keep the bursts count at a decent amount.

This plugin allows me to automatically send notices to customers who’ve purchased
my downloadable items whenever I update the products. I’ve seen other plugins that
do this, but they are way out of my budget and have all sorts of other capabilities
that I don’t need. This plugin is simple and does the job. It also comes with great
support. Even though I hadn’t purchased the PRO version, the plugin author made 
a plugin fix to correct a problem I was having. I am definitely going to buy the
PRO version after being taken care of so well when I ran into an issue with the 
lite version. This plugin is WELL worth the download and I am happy to purchase 
the upgrade. It is going to save me so much time and work having to notify customers
of updates. My customers love being notified of free updates, and I love how this
plugin lets me do the job with a flip of a virtual switch. Seriously, this is probably
one of the best (and much needed) plugins for Woocommerce that I’ve found.

Unfortunately, while WCDPUE Lite installs and activates properly when using Wordpress
Multi-Site, it does not send the product update emails.

Plugin works perfectly with WooCommerce without need for additional plugins to manage
downloads on your website. Never let your users wonder if there’s an update to their
product, now you could simply let them know via email with this plugin.
