Any ideas? Steve The worlds safest web server is the one that is turned off
Sinbad ECT Moderator USA 65937 Posts	Posted - 09/27/2017 : 12:01:21 Hi Steve, below are the available parameters that can be used in the vsadmin/includes.php you probably are using one of these parameters, just change the value to the one you need. Show tax inclusive prices To show tax exclusive price followed by the inclusive price on the products page use $showtaxinclusive=1; the wording for the tax can be changed in vsadmin/inc/languagefile_en.php. From version 5.4 to only show tax inclusive price, set $showtaxinclusive=2; From version 6.3 if the tax is already assumed to be included in the product price, set $showtaxinclusive=3; Winners never quit, quitters never win CSS and Responsive Designs User Manual for Ecommerce Templates

I currently use $showtaxinclusive=3 but I would like to show both inc and excl vat prices but the other way round from the default $showtaxinclusive=1 of excl followed by inc. Mainly because most customers will be subject to the VAT so it makes sense to make the inc value the main focus with the excl value available for those that are exempt. I did try using the extra currency field and that as found in https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/support/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=104958&SearchTerms=VAT which basically worked really well but but it fell down for me on products that are VAT exempt.
