Different taxes for different states, provinces etc.
I've seen this how to question here a few times while browsing through the forum.
The ClassiPress theme doesn't support multiple taxes.
The fix would be, if using PayPal for example, to create the separate taxes there under Profile, Website Selling Tools - configure multiple taxes...etc.. If your PayPal account is set up as a business account - this option will be available.
So, if you leave the tax charge field empty in "Payments>Settings>General", and you're charging $5 for a featured ad, ClassiPress hands off the $5 charge request to PayPal - Paypal charges the tax at checkout based on the billing address of the PayPal user or their credit card.
On return, the total paid is shown without the tax though. Which isn't a really big deal considering they'll get a receipt from Paypal directly showing the tax applied anyhow.
If you want to give it a whirl to see what I mean - and you're Canadian eh!, go to
www.tradebuyorsell.ca and run the process through - once you get to paypal, log in and look at the tax PayPal has added to the $5 - please don't pay of course - use just as an example to see what I mean.
Cheers.
