"Re: Preview Only ... Current Price Status ... Preview Only"

I am a newbie to zen cart so any assistance would be greatly appreciated. After installation prices against products are not been reflected. Instead I have $0.00 against my products. In the Products Price Manager all prices appear correctly. Additiionally, in the admin area, I have the warning(?) "Re: Preview Only ... Current Price Status ... Preview Only"

In the front-end the shopping cart box is showing but prices are showing $0.00.

I have searched through this forum and looked at the configuration area in admin for several hours and can't seem to locate where the problem is or what I have not done correctly.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Have you an URL to your site that we can perhaps peek at? :smile:

NOTE: on the Products Price Manager ... the Preview warning is so that you remember to hit the EDIT button before making changes on that page ...

Thanks to you all for the prompt replies. The url to the shop is:

Could you post your settings for your Currency on NGN?

You had 0 for the default value vs 1 on NGN

Then updating the currency conversion set everyone back on track based on NGN as the default currency ...

See if that doesn't run better for you ...

Linda,

Thanks a milliion!!!! I am so grateful and excited! Thank you so very much. I appreciate your help.

One thing though. How do I get rid of the "Sold Out" notice? Looks like Oliver Twist asking for more!

Thanks again and again and again!

Look at the Admin ... Configuration ... Stock ... settings and determin how you want them to work ...

Do you want to track stock?

Do you want to allow checkout when products_quantity <= qty ordered?

Do you want the Product to Vanish (be set to products_status 0) when you hit <= 0

Do you want to show the Sold Out when the products_quantity <= 0

Ok yes. I will check that and do the needful. I have also figured that the "Sold Out" notice had to do with the stock and have set it to 2000 copies.

I am going to like this sofware.

Thanks once again. You are a gem.

You are most welcome ... glad that you are getting things straightened out now in your setup ... :smile:

Here's my specific problem. I only have one product, a book that costs $15. I have to charge 8% sales tax and it isn't calculating correctly once the shipping charges are added in.

15.00 for the book
4.80 flat rate shipping
19.80 subtotal

Tax on that for Texas customers should be 1.584 (or 1.58 rounded).
Zen Cart is only charging 1.38.

Can anyone help?

The basis of the shipping tax is set to equal the store zone, which is Texas. Could it be the decimal places? I can't figure out why it's 20 cents off.
