paypal express checkout - tax and postage not in shopping cart page

[albi1kenoby]

Hi, I'am using v154, the problem I have is in the kart page, the price is shown including Tax but there is no shipping charges, so when i click the express payment button the paypal page shows the price without tax and shipping.

I have two tax zones eu, rest of the world, and I have used shipping zones for calculating the shipping.

Please help
Regards
Paul

If you make the customer login BEFORE clicking the PayPal button, those values will be calculated and shown at PayPal.
Otherwise they will be calculated and shown later in checkout.

If by upgrade you mean to ZC 1.5.5, I would suggest that you consider doing that upgrade before adding fast and easy checkout or Checkout without an account (COWOA) from the standpoint of having a store that operates under the current PHP/MySQL environment that your host may operate and with the latest security patches. The software desired may/may not yet be updated to provide the additional feature(s) that you would like to have, but it would not be expected to be long before those types of highly desired plugins are updated for ZC 1.5.5.

Hi,
Thank you mc12345678 for your reply, I have down loaded the new version 155 and I am now reading all the information that I can to help me with an upgrade/rebuild before I start. I will follow you advise and then find suitable addons for the new version as they are released.
