Currently using VM3.0.18 on Joomla 3.6.5 PHP 5.4.40

I know this topic has been asked before but the posts I found are all quite old. I'm wondering if there's anything new that I missed in my search.

I'm looking for a solution to replicate the features I had previously in other cars to allow multiple downloadable files to be attached to one product as individually selectable files after purchase, which is how my customers are used to purchasing embroidery designs from me and the many other embroidery sites available.

I found references to 3 plugins. One appears to be obsolete since their website won't load. Two others are VM Custom Downloadable (ekerner) and Joomla Virtuemart Downloadable Product (Webkul).

Ekerner's only permits one downloadable file per product. I need to provide multiple options so that the customer can select which format they want and not clutter up their computer with unnecessary files.

Webkul's requires you to move the safe folder into an unsafe location or else the downloads won't be accessible. Plus, when installing it on a the latest release of VM, it crashed the site and we had to restore from backup. Both of these issues make me hesitant to implement it.

Any advice on other options?

TIA

I wonder that you do not find my plugin http://extensions.virtuemart.net/shipments/shipment-for-virtual-products-detail
Which keywords did you use to find it?

You can handle more than one download per product and when you want to have different options, then you need "generic child variants"
