Support » Plugin: WooCommerce » Can I enable downloads without purchase?

    I’m looking into a couple of eCommerce plugins for an upcoming project. The task at hand involves digital products, but a user should be able to become a “member” of the site, or purchase a subscription of sorts, that would allow them access to digital products, rather than purchasing each one individually, though that would also be possible. My thought it to use WordPress roles, and when rendering a digital product, if the user is of a certain role, display a download button instead of an Add to Cart button.

    I don’t see anything natively in the API that looks like it would allow me to circumvent the cart and display a download button instead. At best I feel I could run a filter and overwrite the price to $0.00 and let them “purchase” it for free.

    Is there a better solution for this?
