-- url of the page with the problem -- : walkinthedog.com/30-minute-visits
-- HikaShop version -- : 2.4.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.4.1

I have reviewed all the information on this page ( www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/3...ion-listing.html#faq ) and I can't get the sales tax to show up in the cart.

The tax was showing up when users were logged in, but now the tax never shows.

Also, in an attempt to fix the problem, I set the "main tax zone" option of the configuration to United States of America, and now I can't delete it. I added United States of America to the default tax rule and still no tax shows up.

All my products and orders should have the same tax rule (8% tax). I've spend 2 hours trying to fix this. Please help. Thanks!

UPDATE: Looks like I fixed the problem by setting "Cumulative tax" to "Yes" in SYSTEM>TAXES

I don't know what "Cumulative tax" means, and this was not mentioned as one of the things check in this article ( www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/3...ion-listing.html#faq ).

Hi,

The cumulative tax option allows you to have several tax rules apply at the same time to your products price.
So I suppose that you had several tax rules setup, and one without a tax rate, or with a tax rate of 0% was found and used over the other tax rule that was set with the 8% tax rate.
Activating the cumulative tax setting of your tax rules allowed the system to actually process both tax rules for the prices and thus you got your prices taxed with both 0% and 8% (or something similar to that).

Please remember to post a screenshot of the settings you're talking about next time you have an issue. It would have helped us better understand the problem, and it would also help other users coming to this thread in the future.

Thanks for your reply. Actually I only have one tax rule set up. I don't understand why switching to "Cumulative tax" fixed the problem.

It's probably a side effect of the fact that you don't have a namekey for your tax rate and a 0% tax rate for it.
