WooCommerce Tax Display by Country – WC 2.4 fix (price caching)

WooCommerce Tax Display by Country – What’s new

The Tax Display by Country plugin for WooCommerce has been updated to version 1.7.10.150914. This update brings the following improvements and fixes:

  • Fixed caching issue caused by WooCommerce 2.4. The caching logic added in the latest WooCommerce prevented prices to be displayed according to the Tax Display plugin configuration when any of the display settings changed. For example, if the plugin was set to show prices including taxes, then the setting was changed to excluding taxes, the product prices would still show with taxes. This was the result of stale cached data being used by WooCommerce. This new plugin version addresses the issue, ensuring that prices are recalculated correctly when the Tax Display settings change.
  • Improved performance in WooCommerce 2.4. The latest version of WooCommerce is slower in returning the data required by our plugin. The logic behind the Tax Display plugin has been optimised to compensate for this issue.
  • Updated download link for Aelia Foundation Classes.

WooCommerce Prices by Country – WC 2.4.7 price caching fix

WooCommerce Prices by Country – What’s new

Prices by Country for WooCommerce has been updated to version 1.6.9.150914. This update brings the following improvements and fixes:

  • Added support for the new price caching logic added to WooCommerce 2.4.7. The new logic added in WC 2.4.7 to load variable product prices, which affected our Currency Switcher,  can also prevent our Prices by Country plugin from working correctly. We updated our plugin to fix the issue, and ensure that the correct region prices are used for variations. This update is fully backward compatible with previous WooCommerce version.

WooCommerce 2.4.7 – Important changes in variable product prices

WooThemes just announced a change in the logic that WooCommerce uses to load the prices for variable products. The change, whose purpose is to fix possible issues related to the caching of incorrect product prices, can break compatibility with other plugin that rely on the existing logic. These changes are due to be added to of WooCommerce 2.4.7, which is due to be released on the 21st September 2015.

Which Aelia plugins are affected?

The change affects our Currency Switcher and our Prices by Country plugins. We are already at work to update our products and bring them up to speed with the new logic. We will release an update for both plugins in the next few days, so that you can install on your site before WooCommerce 2.4.7 becomes publicly available.

Important: you can install our updates as soon as they become available. As always, our plugins are fully backward compatible, and they will work with WooCommerce 2.4.6 and earlier.

Our other solutions, such as Shipping Pricing, Tax Display by Country and EU VAT Assistant will keep working correctly, they won’t need any modification.

Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact us through our support portal, and we will be happy to assist you.

WooCommerce Tax Display by Country – WC 2.4 fix (“keep prices fixed”)

WooCommerce Tax Display by Country – What’s new

The Tax Display by Country plugin for WooCommerce has been updated to version 1.7.6.150828. This update brings the following improvements and fixes:

  • Fixed “white screen” bug caused by WooCommerce 2.4 on cart and checkout pages. The bug was introduced by WooCommerce 2.4.x, and occurred in specific configurations when the “keep prices fixed” feature of the Tax Display by Country plugin was enabled. The result were intermittent errors on the cart and checkout pages, which did not refresh anymore when the customer changed the country.
    The root cause of such issue was an undocumented breaking change in the logic used by WooCommerce to load shop’s base location, which caused our plugin to go into an infinite loop.

WooCommerce Tax Display by Country – WC 2.4 checkout bug fix

WooCommerce Tax Display by Country – What’s new

The Tax Display by Country plugin for WooCommerce has been updated to version 1.7.5.150824. This update brings the following improvements and fixes:

  • Fixed bug caused by WooCommerce 2.4 on the checkout page. The same bug that affected our Currency Switcher also caused some issues on our Tax Display by Country. Due to the hidden breaking change introduced in WooCommerce 2.4, the Tax Display plugin could not detect the country change on the checkout page. The only side effect was that the country selector widget was not updated correctly (taxes are calculated by WooCommerce itself, therefore this bug did not affect them). We fixed this cosmetic issue, so that customers can get a more consistent user experience.

WooCommerce Prices by Country – WC 2.4 checkout bug fix

WooCommerce Prices by Country – What’s new

Prices by Country for WooCommerce has been updated to version 1.6.8.150824. This update brings the following improvements and fixes:

  • Fixed bug caused by WooCommerce 2.4 on the checkout page. The same bug that affected our Currency Switcher had an impact on our Prices by Country plugin as well. In this case, since WooCommerce 2.4 prevented our plugin from detecting the country change at checkout, the product prices were not updated as expected. This new version fixes the issue.
