Please Help w/ Pricing Issues.

[blueline]

Hello everyone.

 

I am starting to develop my site, and get it up and running, but I have recently leanred of a problem that I am unsure how to fix.

 

My prices are showing up more expensive then they are set in the products table in my database. I have checked the mySQL database directly, as well as through the osCommerce catalog, and the prices show up correctly there, but for some reason on my actual site they are showing up more expensive.

 

My site is http://www.bluelinehifi.com for those of you who are interested in taking a look. STILL UNDER HEAVY DEVELOPMENT! These prices are too expensive...anywhere from a couple dollars, up to 50 or 60 dollars, and I can't figure out why.

 

Thanks to everyone for any help provided,

-Chris

Hi Blue line,

have you checked your currency settings in admin. If you're selling in USD make sure that its value is set to 1.

 

Just a simple thought, as I made that error once.

There is a post in the install and development thread that addresses this issue. What it is doing is adding tax the items automatically. You need to change a true to false. I don't remember where but if you do a search of these groups you will find the answer. I made the same mistake, so you?re not alone. Also, I am new to osCommerce and a newbie to PHP and I have found just about every answer by searching these groups.

You can change the tax parameter Toolcrazy refers to in

 

/catalog/includes/application_top.php

 

Look for:

define('DISPLAY_PRICE_WITH_TAX', true); // Display prices with tax (true) or without tax (false)

 

All prices in the database (also the attribute ones) are EX tax.

Hey everyone!

 

Xelan-

I checked my settings. Thanks for the advice. They were set to US dollars.

 

Toolcrazy-

I appreciate the heads up about searching the forums. It just so happens that the prices were showing taxes as well.

 

Mattice-

I went and edited that file, and WA LAH! All problems solved.Thanks.

 

I really appreciate the help from all of you. That's one less thing I have to worry about.

 

 

I don't suppose anyone has anything to say about the look of the header of footer of the site?

 

Thanks again for all of the help guys. It is really appreciated.
