Title: Hide VAT on VAT exempt products
Post by: Debayne on May 09, 2013, 10:30:10 AM

Hi guys,

Just taken over a site built by someone else, and not used VM for ages.

I have searched the forums, but could not find anything, so forgive me if already answered.

My client has a clothing shopping and in the UK, childrens clothing is VAT exempt therefore on the childrens clothing they would like to hide the excluding VAT price.

Is there anyway to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Firstly sorry for originally posting in the wrong area, just I wasn't sure if it was product creation or a templating issue.

Does anyone know if I can hide price without tax on products were the tax is zero rated?

I am shocked that this has not been answered before as I am was sure there would have been other users with the same problem?

Thanks again

do the items have a zero rated vat code? I have not looked at the latest J!VM code still running an old version

Thanks for the reply, stinga.

Yes all the relevant products are zero rated

I set something like this up using a template override for components/com_virtuemart/views/productdetails/tmpl/default_showprices.php The override file was assigned to the categories that needed a different price field layout, or in this case a field exclusion.

For the use of overrides see http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/33-templating-layouts.html and http://www.ostraining.com/blog/joomla/overrides

Oooh, thanks jenkinhill, I would have never thought of doing it that way!

Will have a play, and let you know.

Thanks
