Display the Inc VAT price on category page

Post by industry » Mon Jan 11, 2010 4:44 am

On the site i am developing when you select a category of products and it display them in a grid, the price only seems to display the Ex VAT price - see image below:

Yet if you go into the full details of the product it display the Inc VAT price - see image below

What we need is to display the Inc VAT price on the category grid page but cant seem to work out how this is done.

Thanks in advance :D

If you want your product price to tax inclusive you need to turn it on Administration > Configure > Taxes > Settings page for shopping display setting. Secondly are you using out of the box or some custom made category display page? How you configured your current taxation?

Thanks for the reply....i tried the change in the backend but still it doesn't display the tax inclusive price on the category page, strange!

Attached are the pages used
catpages.zip
I've had to pick this up from somebody who is no longer around, so apologies for being a little vague!

I have used your control files with local install and they seems to work. In order to setup local test I have first enabled the taxes from tax settings area, then I created a new tax rule and assigned it to a tax code called taxable. Then form tax setting area for Shopping Display: I selected show tax included prices for all users. And finally I assigned my product the desired tax code and now its showing me same tax inclusive amount on category and product details page with files you sent to me.

This is really strange.

I've managed to get the same price on both the category and product pages but its still excluding tax - i changed the setting you mentioned and nothing changes. Have even set up a new tax code and assigned a product to it and still nothing. Everything is fine when checking out, the vat is added on but before that stage nothing.

Last ditch effort before i admit defeat.....

Is there anywhere else i can look? or anything else i can try?

Appreciate the help, a lot - thank you.
