Is there a way to setup my product contents to hold sub-folders so that when someone purchases my product it gives them the main folder (based on the name of the main object) and all sub-folders are contained with it? I am trying to keep things organized. If not, there a trick to maybe getting this to work like so?

Edit the object you are selling. On the 'General' tab, just below the check box 'For Sale', you have options to sell the orginal, a copy or the contents. Set it to sell 'Contents'. Then put everything you want the purchaser to receive into the content of this object.

Right, but if I drag a folder into the contents it only transfers over the contents, not including the folder itself. I would like to have multiple folders inside the contents folder of the object. Unless I am doing it wrong... :confused:

Ah, I see what you are looking to do. As far as I know you can't do that. Or at least I have never figured out how.

The best you could do, maybe, is set up a vendor that gives a copy of a folder contained within it; for multiple folders you can have one object with several prims, each giving a folder.

It still wouldn't arrive in a nice sub-foldered way, mind, but you could name the folders to get around that.

You'll need a script to do it, basically turning the prim into a little one-selection vendor.
