I hope I can manage to explain this properly. I have searched the forums and although others have asked the question nobody seems to have replied. I run a UK shop with products sold attracting 3 rates of VAT. 0%, 5% and 20%. When i charge for shipping and handling VAT rules state that the VAT on the shipping and handling should be the greater of the VAT rates used on the order. So for example: Order has a purchase of a product with 20%, a product with 5% and a product with 0% then the shipping VAT is 20% If the order didn't have the product at 20% then the shipping VAT would be 5% As most of my store has products at 0% getting this wrong can result in a big bill from the tax man in error. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks Shaun

Hi All, I need some urgent help please. I went live over the weekend with our new store in PS 1.6.0.8 and everything was working fine, somehow my store has been upgraded to 1.6.0.9 (whether it was one of the users clicking upgrade by accident or something automatic...dunno???) Anyway, the prices in the front office for each product no longer show the price with the vat included (as it did before), the vat is only included when the item is added to the cart. I had this problem before in 1.6.0.8 and resolved it by adding a new tax rule under my UK 20% tax set up, but now nothing I do here works. I had also in the past been able to manually manipulate the product.tpl by changing this line from: <span id="our_price_display" itemprop="price">{convertPrice price=$productPrice}</span> to: <span id="our_price_display" itemprop="price">{convertPrice price=$productPrice + ($productPrice * 0.2)}</span> but now changing this and clearing the cache/ forcing compilation has no effect... its as if the product.tpl is no longer in use in this new version. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated as I was just getting going. Thanks in advance... Joe
