virtue mart can't show my product prices

[zervas]

I am using Joomla 3.6.5 and Virtuemart 3

Before posting , I spent some time for a solution , but I haven't found anything .  I followed step by step the advice of this site , but it didn't work for me

How else can I do  ?

No URL so we can't see which template you are using. No displayed prices is usually due to a failure to set the store currency or the use of a commercial template that needs updating.

I am using protostar.

So on the  Shop/Vendor tab make sure that the main currency set for the shop is the same as your product price currency.

Your suggestion is absolutely  right . Now I'm trying to make a new Tax rule . For instance, 24% VAT , but when I click the button Save & Close , VM shows me the message 'Failed' .  I got this message also when I try to make a new shipment method . I don't know why I get these errors .

Thank you very much for your reply  .

Try the manual.  https://docs.virtuemart.net/manual/products-menu/taxes-and-calculation-rules.html

Why do I get these errors ? I mean when I make a tax rule and after that click the button save & close , it shows me the message ¨failed¨.  why ?


Thank you very much

I have never see a failed message.

To make a tax rule is simple.  On the main  Tax & Calculation Rule

page select "New", then
1. enter a name for the rule, eg VAT 24%
2. For Type of Arithmetic Operation select Vat tax per product (or whatever rule is required)
3. For Math Operation selct +%
4. Enter the Value  - eg 24
5. Make sure the Currency is correct.

The save & close.  The tax rule is created.

You can select Published before saving, or publish oit from the list view.   Nothing to go wrong.

I don't know why. Probably , There was an error during installation. On another site , creating new rules is okay.

Now , I am trying to get used to making custom fields. I've created a new product called 'HTML 5 / CSS 3'. I have created a new custom field named 'Color' . the type of this custom field is string. To be honest , I don't know what type I will have to choose every time .

The attributes of this custom fields are : White,Red,Black. If a user chooses Black for example the price will increase 5 euros . But , as you can see in the photo below my list are shown 3 times and not 1 time and whatever option I choose , the price will increase 5 euros .

Read the manual, study the sample data. In short, you created 3 dropdownsw with 1 option, instead of 1 dropdown with 3 options.

Ok. I'll try , but see the following photo . I think that the values are set correctly .
