Menu Links & Taxes

My website is: wakeclothing.com/index.php/shop

I needed to add drop down menu links directly to each category. I created an external menu link to each category - is there a way to do it within hikashop?

By doing this - the taxes only for the state of TN are not working - everything is getting taxed.

What do I need to do to get the taxes working only in TN - or setting up a simple menu link to each category?

Thanks - I just purchased your extension today and posted a great review on joomla.org.

To further clarify -
my links from the top drop down menu are now working and taxes are no longer showing up on these pages.

I am still having issues with taxes. I have added the zone TN (9.25% tax) for orders shipping within the state of TN. All other states should not have tax. Since I upgraded (and added the new drop down links), the cart is now adding taxes to all states. I have assigned the TN state tax category to each product. It is charging 9.25% tax regardless of if the buyer is in TN or other states.

Also - I have since added a menu in the left hand column using the content modules. The categories are showing on the home shoppping page: wakeclothing.com/index.php/shop

But if you click onto one of the pages - the subitems disappear: wakeclothing.com/index.php/shop/category...ing/cid-11/name-hats

And only the title appears. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong in setting up the menus?

Actually - it sometimes is still showing tax on the product listing pages in the drop down menu, and other times it is showing simply the product total. I never want it to show taxes until checkout and have set the settings as such...

I changed the code, and while the taxes seem to be working for nonTN states, I am unable to select the state of Tennessee in the new address selection (it no longer exists as a choice.).
It is still a published zone, and it is still a published tax category. (?)

What are my next steps?

Also - taxes still seem to be adding into product listing pages, even though I have checked to only show price (don't show tax until checkout).

OK - it is now billing the tax correctly, but I cannot get the pricing to show up with just the price (no tax until checkout).

Here are the settings I have selected:

Configuration > Main: My main tax tone is Tennessee - is this correct?
Configuration > Display: Default parameters for products; Show Tax Prices: No Tax

I am not seeing any tax selections in the content menu or content module areas.

Am I missing a selection?

Also - perhaps because of the way I have set up the menus: wakeclothing.com/

I have a drop down menu from the main menu, and then I also have a left hand column menu on the shop pages. Sometimes the pricing show up without tax, sometimes with tax. Lately - it seems to always include tax on my browser.

I must be going crazy - attached is the menu setup page (which looks identical to the module setup page).

Where is the tax setting?

I'm sorry - I'm sure it is right in front of me and I'm just missing the setting.

OK - in order for me to see this "No Tax" setting - I have to change from category listing to "product". (When set as category - which is the setting I think I want - there is no option for "No Tax")

When I do this - the menu no longer shows up - it is blank.

wakeclothing.com/index.php/shop/product/.../category_pathway-10

Note - the top menu - Product Categories - lists each menu link - but taxes are showing in the price.
The 2nd menu - Categories - is not showing the links at all.

I think you missed my point. Let me take you step by step what I am doing...

1. Display > Content Module
Type of content: "Category"
No tax selections are available (see attached)

Per my previous post - The menu is showing up in the left hand column (Product Categories) with the categories correctly listed, but when you click on a category - taxes are being added. Again - you can see in the screen shot - NO TAX SELECTIONS.

Continued...
So, per your recommendations - I tested a new menu.

Display > Content Modules
Type of Product: Product
Here I was able to select the setting "No Tax" (you cannot choose this setting if you select category)

But - you will notice in this test menu - it is blank without any categories listed.

See the blank space below "Categories" in left hand column (under the product categories menu - above shopping cart)

So - my question is....

Which menu should I be using (Categories vs Product).
If I use Categories - how do I get the tax to not show up since it is NOT an option in this screen.
If I use Products - how do I get the categories to show up under my title in the left hand screen vs. blank white space?

Thanks -

Jackie

Nicholas -

Thank you so much for your patience with me. I changed ALL modules and it is now working. That was the trick.
I really appreciate your support.

I did purchase last weekend & posted a great review for you on joomla.org.
