Hikashop version: 3.3.0 Joomla version: 3.7.2 PHP 5.6.40 Hello all, We would like help on a few things we can't figure out easily as it seems between the forums and the documentation, it's quite overwhelming and the steps do not seem clear to me. What I'd like to do: 1. How to add tax to NY orders only. Currently the system is set to no tax on all of our products, however one particular product on this page needs to be taxed if the purchaser lives within the state of New York: beerinsights.com/index.php?option=com_hi...ights-2019&Itemid=44 If these two questions belong in another part of a forum please let me know. I had no idea where to place them: 2. Also, I believe that I've changed the name for the product, but the URL still has the original name the product was setup for (product_id=15$ name=cannabis-insights-2019? see attachment of the page,) though it should have changed to 2019-beer-industry-update 3. Lastly, is there a way to add an airmail fee for all orders that are international (and/or outside of the continental US)?")

Come and get some help over there") Topic started 7 years 9 months ago, by [bmiexpress](/forum/user/37308-bmiexpress "View bmiexpress's Profile") [Last Post](/forum/40-taxes/896715-configure-taxes#302859 "Hi, 1. You can create one tax rate via the "manage tax rates" button of the menu System>Taxes with the percentage you want for the tax. Then, create a tax rule in the System>Taxes menu and select that tax rate, the "default tax category" and the state where NY is located. Then select the default tax category in that product and no tax category for the other products. Now if the zone you want to tax doesn't correspond to the NY state, you'll have to duplicate that tax rule and use the post code setting to restrict the tax rules to different post code ranges. 2. The URL is generated with the alias of the product, not the name. You want to change the alias if you want to change the URL. If you have the "force canonical URLs on listings" setting activated in the HikaShop configuration, you might also need to change the canonical URL of the product. 3. Yes. First, create a shipping zone via the System>Zones menu and select all the countries except yours in the "sub zones" listing of the zone. Then, create a new shipping method of the manual plugin via the menu System>Shipping methods and restrict it to that shipping zone and enter the fee you want in the "price" input field of the shipping method. PS: For something which isn't directly related to the subject, please open a new thread. I'm moved your subject to a new thread for you.") 7 years 9 months ago by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") | Replies:1 Views:2585 | [Last Post](/forum/40-taxes/896715-configure-taxes#302859 "Hi, 1.

The system however doesn't allow this since it recognizes their e-mail address has been used before and gives an error message. We never thought this would be much of an issue, but we've actually had some complaints from customers about this and were wondering if anything can be done to allow a registered e-mail address still check out as a guest as well?

To avoid that, it would require differentiating guests and registered users in HikaShop, but that's hard to do because we have a unique key on the user_email column of the hikashop_user table (like Joomla has in the users table) so that you can only have one entry per email address. The advantage of doing that is that we can easily synchronize the user entries between Joomla and HikaShop and other optimizations. And the code of HikaShop supposes that you can have only one entry for one email address. So changing that might have implications in places I didn't think about, like the votes, etc. Basically, it looks like a simple change, but it has great implications if we want to do it properly. For anyone else interested, I've replied with informations on where to change the code to allow for that: www.hikashop.com/forum/checkout/892402-a...ed-users.html#280675 Note that as a customization in your case, you don't need to differentiate the users between guests and registered users, so you probably won't have to do all that.
