show before tax prices on frontend

ok, so i have looked everywhere for this information and can't find a thing regarding this. Basically what I need is for the customer to see the price before tax. I have never seen a online storefront where they show the price of an item with tax included.

thanks Nicholas,

I can understand how that is a law in the EU. which I really have no problem with.

Here in the U.S. we aren't accustomed to that set up and that being the case I just don't want to confuse customers unnecessarily, especially since we pay tax on the total amount not on a per item basis.

one minor thing though. I got that set but as you can see with it still shows the price after tax on the initial page that loads. it shows it correctly in the details page, but on the main category page it still shows the price with tax included. this is on my testing server so that I can get things set up properly for a client.

I have a similar problem and I think I can't really understand the process of setting up menus.

If I understand this correctly, in order to show prices without tax you have two options for NEW menus and each one of them applies to either product page or product listings. This is configured during menu creation by fist saving then going to HikaShop Option in the upper right corner pane and associate the menu with a module that has the tax settings you want.

The other option is when you already have a menu and need to change how tax is displayed, in this case you have identify which module the menu is associated with by going to HikaShop Option in the upper right corner pane - the module will be listed in the lower left corner under Associated Module, the next step is to go to Display --> Content Modules and edit the associated module.

I've done the above but the tax still show when you are actually in the product listing page (where you can add it to the cart).
What am I missing? I want my products not to show the price with tax until the check out process.

As nicolas stated it will only affect new item entries, I would recommend trying to delete the items that you already had in place and reenter them, I realize this can be a daunting task since a lot of shops have quite a bit of inventory to show, however it won't apply to the products already in the system. if you need further assistance with this feel free to PM me or email me and I will do what I can to help you on this. I got it fixed on my end, now I just need to get the customer implementation done once he is ready to do it.

I see, when he's talking about new, he's talking about new inventory. I thought it was new menus.

It shouldn't be problem as I only have a few test items and the store is not live.

Thanks for the offer to help.
