Show VAT/Tax on Booking Form

[Alex Stanhope]

Hi Stephen,

We are using WP Event Organiser Pro (with the VAT add-on) on a client site; as the site is business-to-consumer, we were wondering if there was an easy way to show the ticket prices (within the “Ticket Picker”) on the single event page to be inclusive of VAT/Tax?

Is there an “upgrade-safe” method that you would recommend to handle this?

I will very much look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Alex,

Yes this is possible.

You can copy the file event-organiser-pro/templates/eo-ticket-picker.php into your theme and make a change to the line:

<td class="eo-booking-ticket-price"> <?php echo eo_format_price( $ticket['price'], true ); ?> </td>

so that it applies the tax:

 <td class="eo-booking-ticket-price"> <?php 
 $vat = function_exists('eventorganiservat_get_vat_percent') ? eventorganiservat_get_vat_percent() : 0;
 $inc_vat = $ticket['price'] * (1 + $vat/100);
 echo eo_format_price( $inc_vat, true ); 
 ?> </td>

By copying the template into your theme it’ll survive updates to the plug-in.

Hi Stephen,

That’s brilliant, and works like a charm!

However, what I did notice is that the total is still shown excluding VAT/tax though! Any thoughts on a fix for that at all?

As always, I will very much look forward to any ideas you might have on this!

<td class="eo-booking-total"> 
 <?php echo eo_get_booking_form_total_placholder(); ?>  
</td>
