So you will be able to do it as well if you follow them. The "no available wharehouse found for your location" error can happen if the address of the user is outside the zone of the warehouse configured in the UPS plugin. Just remove the zone of your warehouse in your UPS plugin and you won't have the error. It can surely be done. There is a FAQ here which explains the different causes of taxes not working: [ www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentatio...ion-listing.html#faq](http://www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentation/37-hikashop-taxation-listing.html#faq) So you should check these points, it must come from one of them. If you want us to help you, just post screenshots of how your configured your taxes, your main tax zone in the configuration, one of your products tax category and a link to your website so that we can check that.

That's the tax rules which link together zones, tax rates and tax category. Now you have another problem on your website. You configured a discount of $30 for your products. But your products cost only $1, so the price displayed is $-29. I'm not sure what you're trying to do but that's definitely not what you want to do. I've unpublished your discounts so that you can see that the taxes work correctly now.

And, the $1 was also after the fact for testing purposes (I put one product to $1 just before logging off-guess I should have done $31 but neither of those effective the problem.

If you change that zone the taxes won't be applied until the user enters his address. Regarding the PayPal, you should try to toggle the "address override" and "no address" options of the paypal plugin to fix that.Try the 4 combinations and you should have at least one working.

Like I stated in my previous threads, I have tried every possible combination imaginable so please do not focus so much on how it is set currently, as I know it is not currently working, just happens to be the settings where i most recently gave up. Please advise. PS. The Paypal error just started, which tells me it is certainly someing wrong with the way Hikashop is transmitting the address to Paypal, not a setting in Paypal as it was working fine until I was experimenting with ways on how to make the tax work in Hikashop...
