demo site using Sharp Sales theme

• use a single product node to sell multiple items, example: DVD, download, or both
  • delivery attribute with options and features assigned to those options; download option not shippable
• selling node access with uc_node_access module as opposed to role (so you don't have to have a role for each piece of content)
  
  • create node type for premium content, use content_access to restrict access to role
    
  • set time delay, time period, expiration date
  • use uc_restrict_qty to limit buyers to one of these items
• registration forms -- instead of using text attributes, use uc_node_checkout to make it a node type so you can use Views to list registrations
  • create a registration node type, add fields with CCK, including status and order fields to hold order info (as text)
• conditional access -- develop using the admin, but best not to keep PHP code there
