100% off shippin coupon interfering with TaxCloud plugin

    Hello Awodev,
    We're experiencing an issue with Awocoupon that appears to be preventing tax from being calculated at all.

    We're running Hikashop 2.5.0 due to a USPS shipping calculation bug in 2.6.0 that has not yet been resolved.

    We have a pickup coupon in Awocoupon that gives a 100% discount on shipping. (We key detect the coupon code and file these orders into a separate status for in person pickup)

    Our problem is with the TaxCloud plugin used to determine WA State sales tax. For a taxable and shippable item, everything works as expected. Tax is applied to taxable items, and shipping is correctly calculated based on the USPS plugin's results.

    When we apply the 100% shipping coupon, we correctly see the 100% discount applied against shipping. However, the TaxCloud determined tax disappears from the cart completely.
    Additionally, if somebody applies the 100% shipping coupon to an item that is virtual (no shipping method at all), it still drops the tax off entirely.

    As best I can tell, something in how Awocoupon applies its shipping discount is preventing the TaxCloud plugin from firing at all.

    This does not happen with discounts on the item prices, (buy X get Y and fixed percentage discounts still work and tax is still applied), so it appears unique to shipping discounts.

    Since we're dealing with 2 separate 3rd party plugins, getting this resolved is a bit difficult. Hikashop suggested we start here.

    Any ideas?

    Hello,

    Ok, can look into this, but would need a copy of the extension, tax cloud.

    Can you email a copy so I can test it? Email address on the contact us page.

    Thanks for the response. The plugin is bundled with Hikashop, but I can try to extract it. Will get that emailed to you a bit later today.

    Hello,

    Did not realize it was already part of Hikashop, would not have asked for the extension in that case.

    So took a look and found the problem. Here is the solution, you would need ftp access to modify awocoupon:

    in www/administrator/components/com_awocoupon/helpers/estore/hikashop/couponhandler.php, around line 964 is this:

    <?php
            $this    ->order_total =& $cart_total;
                $this->cart_products = $cart_products;
    ?>


    Right after that add this:
    <?php
            $cart     = new stdClass();
                $cart->products = &$this->cart_products;
                $cart->cart_id = (int)@$cartclass->cart->cart_id;
                $cart->cart_type = @$cartclass->cart->cart_type;
                $cart->cart_params = @$cartclass->cart->cart_params;
                $cart->coupon = null;
                $cart->shipping = null;
                $cart->total = &$this->order_total;
                $cart->additional = array();
            
                JPluginHelper::importPlugin('hikashop');
                JPluginHelper::importPlugin('hikashoppayment');
                JPluginHelper::importPlugin('hikashopshipping');
                $dispatcher = JDispatcher::getInstance();
                $dispatcher->trigger('onAfterCartProductsLoad', array( &$cart ) );
    ?>


    That should fix it.
    Regards
