Simple Tax Question

[ideatek]

I got a simple question for a newbie.. thats me.

 

For some reason ever since I added a tax percentage, all my prices now have tax included. Anyway to only see tax at the end during checkout?

 

Thanks

One of two possible solutions here.

 

There is a database entery that gets made from the store configuration section in the ADMIN area. Go to configuration->mystore-. Display taxes with prices - set to FALSE.

 

Option two depends upon what realse you are using and it requires that you modify some code:

 

What you need to do is add the following lines to catalog/includes/application_top.php

 

 

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

 

I usually insert it at about line ~130 -140 right after the rest of the define statements

 

This will provide the same functionality as the Admin entry.

 

What I have found is that some of the early releases dont have this and sometimes contributions can overwrite this line. If you are using MS1 you dont need to do this UNLESS you have added a contribution OR are using a release that predates MS1.
