HF] If Only [2004] DVDRip 300MB
Hanne Rylaarsdam
I'm having trouble with my internet speed after flashing OpenWRT on my router. Before i could pull 1000mb/s download speed in various speedtests, now i can only pull 250-300mb/s max 350mb/s. I'm not using QoS.
Im trying to sell digital products that will all be over 300mb in size even when zipped. Is there a workaround so I can sell a link to a google drive or outside source? It only accepts files not links. If I cant find a workaround Im most likely going to have to cancel my squarespace ging forward. Any help would be appreciated!
On Squarespace, the file size limit for digital products is 300MB. If you are using Squarespace's Commerce features, the only workaround is to host your large files securely on another platform that supports larger files. This is obviously not ideal, but I'd prefer to suggest a workaround than simply tell you it cannot be done. If you use this method, you can create a simple text file such as "readme.txt" that contains the URL for the file and the password (if required). You can then upload this small text file to Squarespace as the "digital file" instead of the "product". For example, Google Drive lets you upload files up to 5TB in size.
Is there no plan to increase this file size limit?
Even a music album in high quality surpasses the 300mb limit. An while a smaller file size might have been of benefit 10 years ago. Now days it's just not an issue. The only limitation is squarespace.
If you need to compress videos like I did, in the Video Compressor tool ( -compressor) they allow you to define the target output size (in our case, 300MB), and not only did it work like a charm (my video went from 606MB to 287MB), the video quality also looks great to me - honestly can't tell the difference between the original and the compressed one).
Our busines relies solely on selling digital products... It is just so ridiculous, that there is a limit to 300mb. We are in Audio Production and obviously sample packs, plugins & co easily exceed 300mb. In other businesses, be it photography or video, 300mb is even faster exceeded.
After few years full of adventures we were extremely happy we found Squarespace!
We did the site easily, uploaded many of our products etc until.... DUH!!!!
We can't upload many of our products as they are more than 300mb.
Shocked.
Spent a happy month building a website that runs smooth and looks wonderful only to discover that the very same platform is sending us to Shopify... We will go. Sad for the wasted time and for leaving your nice platform just for a silly reason.
I agree but sadly the same is true for any digital product, even those that are less than 300MB and sold directly on Squarespace. We can only remind customers about copyright law and encourage them not to share their purchases. There are no technical controls that can prevent a purchaser from downloading their digital file and then re-upload it to a hosting service (such as Google Drive) where it can be shared online.
I'm a digital artist setting up my shop to sell some of my assets and content. However, I've run into a wall with how small the max file size is for digital products. 300mb is nothing in todays day and age. It is by far the lowest out of any of the major commerce platforms. We pay good money for Squarespace and they claim to be an all in one commerce platform but lack major functionality, this being one of the big ones.
What makes it even more ridiculous is that this forum itself has a max total attachment size of 50mb. The fact that you can only sell digital products that are only up to 6x larger than an attachment to a forum post is crazy to me.
