VAT4EU Support Thread

[lat9]

I gave it a new try with a fresh install and now I have everything working at the Admin side, but the VAT field is not displayed on the Store side, Company field is set to TRUE and is shown.

Not displayed for entry on addresses or not displayed after being entered?

v3.2.1 of VAT for EU Countries is now available for download: https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=2164

This version corrects the vat_number sorting in the admin's Customers :: Customers tool.

Could you post the full PHP Warning logged? That way, I can see the backtrace to understand where this issue is sourced.

in validateVatNumber method this issue is now solved (line #516 in current version ):

$vat_number = strtoupper(zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['vat_number'] ?? ''));

but in update the unnecessary warnings are still being generated (line # 325 in current version)

$vat_number = zen_db_prepare_input($_POST['vat_number']);

Thanks for the report; I've created a GitHub issue to track the required change: https://github.com/lat9/vat4eu/issues/50

Actually, if that field's missing that implies a possible misconfiguration, since VAT4EU's observer should have inserted some jQuery that will add the vat_number entry field to those forms.

What template is in use and is the configuration setting Customer Details :: Company set to true?

Customer Details :: Company ('ACCOUNT_COMPANY' key) is set to false

(I do put corporate customers having EU-VAT-# manually from Admin )

I use my own template (but this does no matter here, I think)
