How to Add Study Material Product Attachments to WooCommerce
The Add Lesson PDFs or Study Materials feature in the Product Attachment for WooCommerce plugin allows WooCommerce store owners to attach downloadable educational content (like lesson notes, eBooks, assignments, or study guides) to any product page.
For example, Online educators or course creators can attach lesson PDFs to a course module product, allowing buyers to instantly download study material. This boosts content value and helps improve buyer satisfaction and course completion rates.
This is ideal for WooCommerce stores selling online courses, educational resources, eBooks, tutoring services, or academic content.

- WooCommerce is installed and running
- The Product Attachment for WooCommerce plugin is installed and activated
