Thanks for your reply. I’ll see what works best.

Thanks for your reply, but I would prefer not to have to create 2 products (1 physical and 1 downloadable) for the same product.

That’s the whole idea of a “variable” product, to be offered in various formats.

So I can I allow multiple copies of the physical variant to be ordered while limiting to 1 only the purchase of the downloadable variant?

Thanks for your reply.

That will work with single products, but what about variable products?

Someone has to be able to buy 3 copies of a physical book, but only 1 copy of the eBook.

Wishing to make progress on this issue and to find a workable solution, I pushed my research further and came to understand that it is not possible to assign 2 tax classes to any given product in order to manage exceptions.

Since books in any format other than print (paper) are taxable throughout Canada, I defined the Standard class as:
CA * 5.0000% “GST Digital” Priority 1
CA QC 9.9750% “PST Digital” Priority 2

Since physical books are subject to GST everywhere in Canada, but exempt from PST in Quebec, I then defined a special class for physical books as:
CA * 5.0000% “GST Print” Priority 1 Shipping taxable

I will run further tests, but so far it seems to work fine.

The only drawback to that method is that if someone buys a combination of physical and digital products, two separate amounts appear for GST on the order form: “GST Print” for the physical books, and “GST Digital” for eBooks. This is an unusual way to present taxes, but I think I can live with that, and customers should not mind.

Actually, for some reason, this does not work.

Let me try to put this as simple as possible.

eBook:
Tax1 (GST) applies to ALL provinces in Canada
Tax2 (PST) applies ONLY in Quebec

Physical book:
Tax1 (GST) applies to ALL provinces in Canada
Tax2 (PST) does NOT apply in Quebec nor anywhere else

If I define Tax1 (CA * 5% GST) and Tax2 (CA QC 9% PST) as Standard,
it works fine with eBook, but Tax2 is then also applied to Physical book in QC, which we don’t want.

If I define only Tax1 (CA * 5% GST) as Standard
I can apply Standard to the Physical book variant of my variable product and it works fine.

If I then create a New Class Rate for Tax2 (CA QC 9% PST) and apply it to the eBook variant of my variable product, even though I make it a Compound tax (as also Standard Tax1) and give it a Rank 2, Tax1 is not taken into account. Only Tax2 appears in my basket.

Doesn’t compound mean that my basket should show both taxes (Standard Tax1 + New Class Tax2)?

Thanks for your reply.

That’s exactly what I need.

Have a nice day.

Thanks for your reply, Igor.

So, for this to work, I have to add 2 separate products for the same book :

1 Single for the printed format with the standard Federal Tax only
and
1 Variable for the ePub, PDF and Audio formats with the Book rate added to the standard Federal tax.

Correct?

Thank you.

Thanks for your reply. Deactivating and reactivating solved the problem.

I’ll keep these on file for future testing, but for now I don’t really have the time to go any further into the issue. So I’ll make due with AJAX for the time being.

If I get a chance to get into it more in depth, I’ll let you know the results.

Thanks for your help.

Well, Mr. Wizz,
.tag-groups-alphabetical-index-tags {
overflow:hidden
}
does the job.

Happy to see that nothing stops you from getting things right. I like that very much.

Thanks again.

I get the same error message as before.

I open LocoTranslate
I select Themes
I select my theme
I select language (French)
I select any untranslated segment in the English window
I provide a translation in the French window
I try to Save the new translation
I get the above-mentioned error message (which prevents the Save)

I deactivated both CSS minification and JS minification, and still got the
Error : window[“_gaUserPrefs”] = { ioo : function() { return true; } }.

So, I got in touch with LocoTranslate, and they recommended that uploading files using AJAX may be the only way to resolve the apparent conflict with Google Analytics as well as other plugins.

As far as you’re concerned, you may rest assured that the problem is not due to minification.

As for myself, I will follow LocoTranslate’s recommendation and use AJAX to upload translation file modifcations.

I actually got the ?J? on top of the second column by putting back keep_together=1 in the shortcode.

But the ?B? header following the A group is still not spaced properly.
