Hi there alk28,
When I tested this, on my checkout page (I am able to check out all the way), I get a link to download.
Can you let me know the following:
WordPress version
WooCommerce version
And a link to your site, so I can test?
It sounds like there may be some CSS getting in the way, so trying this with a theme like Twenty Twelve could help (I tested on Twenty Twelve).
Cheers!

Hi again!
Ok, it looks like you’re on WooCommerce 2.6.13 (which is the latest version) so that is good!
Would you be willing to set up a dummy download product (maybe a blank PDF) set to free, so I can explore a bit more?
If you would prefer, you can also send us a ticket:
http://www.WooCommerce.com ( Go to Support > Helpdesk > Create a ticket > Free Plugins ) – that way we could get testing credentials from you to poke in your site itself.
Cheers!

I set up a free product (it’s a PNG).
I will send a ticket as well.
Thanks!

I can’t send a ticket; when trying to sign up for an account on woocommerce.com I am forced to install woocommerce which I already have. I have created an account anyway but it’s not tied to my website and as a result I can’t really do anything, and it says I only get limited support. When I select free extension for the support ticket, paypal (or paypal express) are not listed as extensions I can ask for help with.

Hi there,
Sorry about the ticketing issue – I’m not sure what’s happening there. But I think we can probably troubleshoot your issue here at any rate.
Can you link me to your free test product?
Cheers!

I see that there is some CSS on your /cart/ page that reads:
.woocommerce a.checkout-button,
.woocommerce input.checkout-button,
.cart input.checkout-button,
.cart a.checkout-button,
.widget_shopping_cart a.checkout {
display: none !important;
}
It looks like the proceed-to-checkout action is being suppressed by the PayPal button. But the PayPal button won’t trigger with a zero price item.
Can you check to see if this is something your theme is doing by design? You can check with the theme author.
Could you also try enabling a different form of payment temporarily to see if that triggers the payment box?
Finally, if you’re able, try setting up a staging site, then switch your theme to Twenty Twelve, and try again.
Cheers!

Thanks for your help. I figured out how to manually issue free orders, which is more ideal for me anyway. I will try contacting the theme author about this, though. Thanks again!
