On our site we use Easy Digital Downloads. Once an EDD download (e-commerce product) definition has been created it is usually supported by \nother posts that provide additional information - help or tutorial information for example. Ideally, these posts will have a similar style, \nuse similar words and need to reference the same core information about the download such a the current version number, the slug, the excerpt, etc..<\/p>\n\n

One way is to cut-and-past information from a download in to each post. But this means that when download details change, its essential to \nremember to update any related posts. This plugin provides another way: a set of plugins that allow you to reference details from a download \nand in this way remove the need to update related posts.<\/p>\n\n
