 * I just installed wp-e-commerce and am halfway done setting things up.
    Man this
   thing is complex! Questions bolded 🙂
 * When I tried to upload a zip file, there was a 32MB upload limit on the dashboard.
   
   When I tried to upload through FTP I got a 550 error – permission denied – for
   the wpsc/downloadables folder. I finally fixed that by resetting the owner on
   my control panel from my server/hosting people. (was ‘apache’ now is ‘my name’)
   I can now upload zip files through FTP into that folder. *yay* But now Wp-e-commerce
   is complaining in my dashboard about permissions */yay*
 * **Is this going to be a problem?**
 * > The following directories are not writable:
   >  * /public_html/wp-content/uploads/wpsc/downloadables/
   > You won’t be able to upload any images or files here. You will need to change
   > the permissions on these directories to make them writable.
 * Uploading via FTP seems to work in that I can select my uploaded files.
    But **
   how do I ‘insert’ products in my blog posts??**
 * (I tried to post this on the WP e Commerce forum, but it doesn’t send me a confirmation
   email or my ‘forgotten’password…)
