Taxes not showing at checkout

    Hi.

    I installed woocommerce on my site a few days ago (I am using the Qualifire wordpress theme) and everything seems to be running perfectly, but I am having an issue with the tax calcualtion at checkout… it does not display automatically like it should.

    I have it set to charge tax for California and Kentucky… but when you select one of those states as your shipping address it does not update the pricing and show the (including tax) portion.

    I think it uses an AJAX function to do this doesn’t it?

    Anyway, if you forget to check the “Agree to our Terms & Conditions” box or leave a field blank or do something that causes the page to “refresh” after you click submit order, then the taxes show like they should.

    I actually have another problem too, but I found a workaround for it. You are unable to check or uncheck the “Ship to a different address” box…but you can click on the text itself and it will uncheck or check the box…

    I just have a test product on there.

    There seem to be multiple issues.

    It looks like you are using version 1.0 of your theme but the current version is 1.3.3. That’s a lot of fixes. Its not possible to tell if the fixes are relevant but updating would be a good way forward.

    If you have modified your theme’s core files, these customisations may be overwritten by the update process.

    Always best to take a backup before updating.

    I thought too that it might be a theme issue, but I’ve tried all 3 wordpress themes as well (Twenty-Thirteen, 14 and 15) and it won’t work on any of those either…

    I guess I can install a free woocommerce theme real quick and see if it works on that.

    I have no clue…

    I installed a woocommerce theme and it didn’t work and then I did a fresh install of woocommerce itself and it still didn’t work.

    The checkout page is supposed to update in real time correct?

    I mean obviously since the customer would need to see the applicable tax in their state.

    I’ve even tried looking around youtube for some examples of people checking out and the tax line popping up but can’t find anything.

    Although I have come across a few posts on forums where people were having similar problems…none of them with a resolution though.

    Oh well, I just figured out a cheesy workaround…

    I enabled the shipping calculator on the Cart page and then renamed the title from “Calculate Shipping” to “Calculate Tax”

    …then when you click on Proceed to Checkout, the state field is prefilled with the info from the calculator…thus adding the tax on the form as well.

    This “fix” only works since I offer free shipping and don’t need the shipping calculator anyway.
