Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread

Small tweak: in readme_local_sales_tax.html, the h1 title is wrong. (Says "Optional/Required Shipping Insurance")

Thanks, updated on GitHub.

For anyone trying to use the 2.5.3 uninstall script to move up to 3.0.0, there is a problem with the uninstall script:

Around line 36 in /YOUR_ADMIN/includes/init_includes/init_local_sales_taxes_uninstall.php:

if(defined(MODULE_ORDER_TOTAL_COUNTY_LOCAL_TAX_STATUS)) { 

Replace with :

if(defined('MODULE_ORDER_TOTAL_COUNTY_LOCAL_TAX_STATUS')) { 

This should clear the 500 server errors that pop up.

FWIW, the encapsulated version takes care of the upgrade itself.

BTW the doubling issue that both @retched and I experienced is resolved for new orders by this update. Thanks for your hard work, @lat9!

PHP 8.3 / ZC 2.1.0 / Local Sales Tax 3.0.0

Running into a problem. The module installs correctly (had to remove the Smash Taxes module changes). The table is currently set up for NY State (4.0%) and a tax rate based off of Zip Code (4.875%). However, checking out, I get the following:



The local sales tax rate works fine but for some reason the state sales tax isn't being calculated. When I disable the Local Sales Tax Plugin, the state sales tax is being calculated.

Should I just give up and dump the 4% onto the Local Sales tax table?

[lat9]

Do you have a 4% tax defined for the NY State zone?

[retched]

Do you have a 4% tax defined for the NY State zone?

Correct. New York has a zone defined with the 4% tax rate.

Again, I can disable the Local Sales Tax and the 4% tax rate is applied. But if I enable LST, the 4% tax setting is ignored.

Didn't you modify Squash Taxes to include state tax? Maybe check that logic or even uninstall Squash Taxes.

Possibly useful data point: I have ZC 2.1.0 + Latest Local Sales Tax, my LST rates *do* include State tax, but I have another state which is also taxed that does not use LST. Ordering with delivery to that state works as expected, with the native Zen Cart sales tax being applied properly.

I did have those changes but I reverted all of those changes to barebones ZC 2.1.0 files. Trying to track down what else could I have changed.
