State Tax Problems... followed directions but it will not apply state taxes to the products...

[davidtnb]

I am having problems with it showing state taxes on my products. I did all of the steps perfectly. This is what I have done:

1) Setup taxes under shipping for my state, made it "state tax" under Shipping/States

2) Setup state taxes under the Payment/Taxes

3) Setup the product to NOT have product taxes.

I created in the USA in Mississippi (the state I need taxed) and it will not show the taxes per the items.

This show the product when I am not logged in:

This is when I login and have my state as Mississippi:

Does anyone know how to fix this? :-\

Let me ask this. If I setup all of the states to have state tax, then just Mississippi have product tax and then just turn product tax on the item. Wouldn’t that be the same thing? Just in reverse?

Just a thought....how about putting in a weight of the product greater than zero, and also put in a "pre-tax wholesale price" greater than $0.00000.
maybe it won't do a thing but just give it a try.

I tested it, it did not affect the price.

Do you also have under "preferances/Products" where it says "Display pre-tax price on product page:" to "yes"?

It was off, I enabled it, but its still showing the old price. Even when it was disabled, I would try to purchase it and it would not have any taxes included.

Lets see.. heres something I remember... and I thought something was wrong at first when I did it... the taxes will only show up after all the check out steps in the cart are done. In other words you will have zero taxes all the way through the check out process until you go from the "shipping" to the "payment" step.

Did you do this test?

Yep, this is what it looks like in the cart:

This is what paypal shows (tried it on google checkout also):

I am about to just reinstall the entire script from scratch and just add the necessary modules. I have no clue what is going on. I got the taxes to work ONE time and then it stopped after I logged out. Wish there was a SQL I could run to just reset EVERYTHING in my store.

I tried...sorry guy. I guess its one of those things that you have to do.
Good luck.

Hey Joe, thanks for the help man. I just downloaded a backup file from my cpanel, restored it... and guess what... its working again... It gets past the shipping to the payment, and it adds the tax in....

Its fixed for now, not even sure why it was messed up, but thank god its fixed :D


You da man!

Hi Davidtnb,

It looks like you need to make some core modification to the module. For your information I have implemented all the US State taxes (separated state wise) on: www.mallsinmail.com

Contact me if you need any assistant.

What do you mean? Core modification?

How did you get it to show the tax for each state?

Yes bro I have implemented State Tax for every state. and its working fine for each state i have tested and also added in AJAX cart try to visit www.mallsinmail.com and check

Make sure you have the default country under Shipping>Countries set to USA!

Hmmm.. seems that PrestaShop is a little bit misleading when it comes to Tax.

If you use the state tax, it doesn't apply it untill the end unless you specify to "show pret-tax price" in preferences>products.

But when this is enabled, there is still no way to just show the normal price (without tax) and then just add the amount of tax to the shopping cart module.

For example, in the module you see:

1xAvenger mid -...$65.00
9
Shipping........$9.95
Total.............$74.95

Would be better if it was like this:

1xAvenger mid -...$65.00
9
Tax (8.75%)..$5.69
Shipping........$9.95
Total.............$80.64

Yes, I hope this is fixed in version 1.2.... Anyone know if they did?

Hey Davidtnb,

I have the exact same problem were taxes are no longer calculated, when they used to function properly. Rerestoring the sql didn't help.

If you had more problem with the issue, or have an idea on how to solve it, please let me know.

There is a german module called separateTax. Works really good in the cart! I hoped it would apply to the order-confirmation too. Nope...

No matter what we do, when we log in as an appropriate user with the correct state that taxes are assigned to...no matter what we do...taxes wont calculate...

Please help. reinstalling isnt an option we have to figure out why its breaking... Thanks!
