Hi

I use downloads already to sell video files.

Recently there has been some requests to start selling written stories. (small books).

While I could simply create a category for it and allow these books to be sold in the downloads marketplace I am worried it will confuse people.

• The name of my market place is literally called "video store" which would confuse folks who see a book being sold there.
• I really don't want books showing up in the "Whats new list".

What are my options?

Can I start a second iteration of downloads app and have a second store called "book store"? I don't think it allows for this does it?

Thank you in advance.

Create a club and add books in the download section there?

Classifieds by @Adriano Faria or Sales Portal Pro by @Spanner.  These allow member to member selling.  

 

 

Not to intrude but classifieds is now @InvisionHQ

It does if you use categories.

Can you elaborate on this?

@SJ77Well you do a category for videos with subcategories for video style (drama, syfy, etc.) and a category for books with subcategories for book styles (drama, syfy, etc)

So you would have to change the name from video store to maybe digital marketplace and make videos and books categories. 

It will take adjustment from you members but I think it make management easier for you.

dont know if you can filter out a category

Or another option would be to switch your video store to videobox, it allows you to sell videos and use downloads to sell books. @SJ77

I already have over 1000 videos. How would I migrate all of these to videobox?
