Possible to show £650 + VAT ?

[Gingerweb]

It is obviously easy to create a language override for the text before the price - but how can i set the text  " plus VAT" after the total price please ?
thanks

You can do that using template overrides. How exactly depends on your versions and what template you are using.

Coming back to this after holidays, ignore this if you already worked it out, but you say you want to add Plus VAT after the price total, so I assume that is in the cart layout.

THis is just one way to do it:
Make a template override for components/com_virtuemart/views/cart/tmpl/default_pricelist.php     This file uses a table to lay out the data.

Find

Code Select Expand


<td align="right"><strong><?php echo $this->currencyDisplay->createPriceDiv ('billTotal', '', $this->cart->cartPrices['billTotal'], FALSE); ?></strong></td>
</tr>

and change to

Code Select Expand


<td align="right"><strong><?php echo $this->currencyDisplay->createPriceDiv ('billTotal', '', $this->cart->cartPrices['billTotal'], FALSE); ?></strong></td><td> Plus VAT</td>
</tr>


Then add a <br></br>  just before each of the </tr> tags appearing above the edited line on the template.

If you are using more than one language the don't use "Plus VAT" in the template, but make a language override for that phrase in each of the languages you use, and use the language constant in the relevant <td>

In that case you need to override components/com_virtuemart/sublayouts/prices.php

Thanks - can you tell me which part of the prices.php file i need to edit please, i have tried a few options but am messing it up each time !
many thanks

I just used an alternative method for a client whose prices sublayout structure prevented changing the override. In this case it was a simple css solution, and it may be easier for you to understand.

eg this adds plus VAT after the Sales Price:

span.PricesalesPrice::after {
   content: " plus VAT";
}

or to add it after the Discount amount:

span.PricediscountAmount::after {
   content: " plus VAT";
}

Just look at the page output code to determine which class to use for each line where you want plus VAT to appear.

Use the added css in an override for vm-ltr-site.css  - see docs,   http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/templating-layouts/106-override-vmsite-ltr-css.html

That is massively easier and works a treat - many thanks
