Problem: The contribution does not switch prices in the shopping cart. Otherwise it works as advertised.

I can't get this module to work.

 

I have the following modules installed:

Percent Rate x total sale price

Swedish payment solution, postf?rkskott, faktura

Login box V5.4

 

On a OSC 2.2 store.

 

 

I get the following error message:

 

----- 8< --------

Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /xxxx/xxx/includes/classes/currencies.php:162) in /xxxx/xxx/includes/functions/general.php on line 29

------- 8< ------------

 

The error message appears when I try to:

1. Login threw the login box

2. Login In the usual way

3. Go to checkout (after choosing shipping).

 

The module seems to be working correctly (I can toggle VAT on/off) but the error messages keeps me from using this module, And I realy miss this feature.

 

Please help!

 

P.S To make the module toggle tax on/off you have to set the "Display Prices with Tax = true" In admin section.

Hi,

 

I have tried installing it but the button that should appear to allow the switch does not appear.

 

Could this may be an STS problem.

 

Has anybody tried had this problem?

Is it only me or is there some problem with this contribution and BTS? If I login all prices are shown ex. VAT even if it should be inc. VAT.

 

Somehow the variable $products_tax is always 0 in the function display_price in includes/classes/currencies.php. Why is that? Can somebody give me a pointer to what could be wrong?

I have rewritten this contribution, and uploaded it as a "new":

Please test it, and let me know if you find any problems with it.

I just noticed there is a problem with the tax calculation on checkout_confirmation.php

 

When the inc. price is on, the tax will bee calculated twice on the products price.

 

Don't know how to fix this yet, are searching..

 

Sorry! :)

The tax calculation problem was fixed during the night, and a new file is uploaded.

I am having a problem with the contribution, it works fine when the customer is logged out, but as soon as the customer logs in, the site only shows ex vat price but it does say inc vat next to it? when the button is pressed the text changes from ex vat to inc vat but the actual amount does not change.

 

Has anyone come across this? It has foxed me for about 2 days now.

 

Thanks

AJ.

I have sorted the problem now, i did not have the Tax Zones set to 'All Countries' 'All Zones' in the admin screens. Therefore it wasnt adding tax when someone logged on.

[rued]

Nice that you sorted it out, and posted the problem "fix" here.

 

Maybe I should try to do any changes, so this not happens in cases like this - some automatic disabling function.. have to take a look on this later when I get time.

I you have problem to get the button into box.

Just to add .gif after 'button_inc_ex_vat like =button_inc_ex_vat.gif and it works.

Hi,

Thanks for this very useful contrib.

 

There is a conflict between this contrib and ot_shipping module.

I have defined a free shipping for orders greater than 50 ?, but it doesn't work properly with the Inc./Ex. VAT contrib. Sometimes, the shipping becomes free under 50 ?, sometimes it remains charged over 50 ?. I couldn't understand the "rational".

 

Help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

[rued]

I don't know when I will find time for this, but I have to test and see if I can get the same error on my test setup - and then try to fix it.

 

So please have patience, it can take some time.. ;)

 

If someone else looks into it, and finds a solution before me, feel free to post it!

Hi,

 

All prices in the store display 0. What to do?

[jejpi]

Hi,

 

I use this contribution in my store, it's really great...but

My problem is that it's not working in advanced search. When I try to search for product with prices without tax, it always return product with prices with tax.

 

So my question is : Does anybody of you know, how to add this contribution to advanced_search ?

 

thanks B)

[Guest]

I seem to be having a problem with using this contribution and the seo url cont.

Can anyone help? The seo addition requires caching to be on, this then seems to cause problems with the ex/inc vat switch.

Do I need to flush the cache each time a customer clicks on ex/inc vat button?

 

Thanks

[Guest]

Hi i have reinstalled 2 times and it always shows vat inc and vat ex as the same price going mad does anyone know what it could be I have tax set to true in admin??? :(

[SamyT]

I've installed this and got it working - I wanted to use the optional thing that shows under the price whether it's inc or ex tax, HOWEVER it shows as html in the product attributes drop down menu when there are additional monies due for different attributes - is there any way to exclude it from there?

[mrhandley]

Its a great contrib, used it in a shop for a while now and everuthing is working fine.

 

One thing though: Is it incompatible with STS?

 

I get duplicate content from the shoppingcart when using it in a STS enabled shop.

 

Here´s how it looks:

 

the second "i din varukorg" ("in your shopping cart") shouldnt be there. But it works fine if I dont use STS?

 

Here is the code from sopping_cart.php:

When I remove the stuff in the "// ==== START CONTRIBUTION "Switch between displaying prices Inc./Ex. VAT"" it works. But then the contrib doesnt show...

 

Any help is appreciated!

Anyone with ideas?

[jamesblackburn]

Hi there,

 

I have installed this really good contribution with some success, however when I try to add a product to the shopping cart it errors.

 

Has anyone else experience this at all?

[glycerine]

great idea with this contrib. Has anyone got this going with Seperate Pricing Per Customer? This contrib works fine when the customer isnt logged in but when they are the price doesn't change from ex tax.
