Paying for the same printable several times
|
Hi,
Could we maybe make some adjustments so people will not be charged every time they a download a certain ws. I just downloaded a ws 6 times before it opened properly on my browser so I could save it. I also think that this invites click fraud, not that I am paranoid but ...
Anyway, just giving you some food for thought, hopefully not ideas ;o)

�Click fraud �? Goodness me, Regina. Are you suggesting that there are some unscrupulous people here who may have more than one account and �spend � all of their free download allowances on their own worksheets in order to boost their scores and reputations and gain even more points in order to entice the na�ve and shallow among us to download their often sub-literate (but equally often, cutely illustrated) offerings? |

Gee, almaz, I had been told that English only allowed short sentences! I �m so glad to see it is not so. |

Pretty breathless, eh, Maria? The Spanish aren �t the only ones who can spin one sentence into a single page. |

But, I heard of someone by the name of Proust. Now, those are long sentences... |

Hello Regina,
Please download and "save as" instantly, then open the file in your browser, text editor etc...
You have to SET your browser to save the files automatically to your ESLP folder.
You just have to teach Mozilla or Internet Explorer to SAVE first, then open...
For example I am using Mozilla:
1. Menu - Tools - Options - tick "Show the Download Manager" and tick "Ask where to save each file"
2. Save the changes - OK.
3. Go to the folder and open the newly downloaded file. It should be ok.
3. Try to download another file, I think this method is 100% save, I have downloaded hundreds of worksheets and I had problems twice only...
just leftclick on "download this printable" and save it on your harddrive.

Of course it will lead to click fraud. Leave well enough alone is my stand. BTW, very good advice from Moravc. |
