General Support / Tax Changes After Customer Upd...
Last post by linda escamarey - July 23, 2026, 10:07:28 PMHi everyone,
I'm testing tax calculations in AbanteCart and noticed something I'm not sure about.
When a customer first adds products to the cart, the estimated tax is calculated correctly based on the default location. However, after changing the shipping country or region during checkout, the tax doesn't always refresh immediately. In some cases I have to refresh the Crossy Road page or go back to the cart before the correct tax amount appears.
Is this expected behavior, or should AbanteCart automatically recalculate taxes as soon as the shipping address is updated?
I'm using the default tax system with Geo Zones and Tax Classes, and shipping rates update correctly—the issue only seems to affect the tax amount.
Has anyone experienced this or found a configuration that forces the tax to recalculate instantly?
Thanks in advance!

The upgrade sql file is available once you unarchive the upgrade package. You can download the package from the GitHub release page: https://github.com/abantecart/abantecart-src/releases.
Please ensure you update the database prefix to match your configuration.

Last post by Basara - July 23, 2026, 03:35:17 AMHello,
Could you first confirm the version? You wrote AbanteCart 1.1.4. Did you perhaps mean 1.4.4?
To help diagnose the issue, could you also provide a bit more information?
Please paste the latest entries from system/logs/error.log (or the latest log file under system/logs/).
Which Windows version are you using?
Which XAMPP version are you running?
Is your XAMPP using Apache or Nginx as the web server?
The error log and these environment details should help identify the problem.

Built-in Features / Re: Import PDF
Last post by Basara - July 22, 2026, 09:20:58 AMThank you for the suggestion and for your willingness to support the development of AbanteCart.
This is certainly something we could consider adding. A donation of $300 USD or more would help prioritize and accelerate the development process. With that level of support, our developer should be able to complete the feature in approximately one business week, assuming no unexpected technical issues arise.

Built-in Features / Import PDF
Last post by timlight10 - July 21, 2026, 11:06:16 AMThe CSV importer supports adding images through a list of URLs, could I also import other file types, such as PDF? Many of my products are very technical. I would like to attach a manual or specification sheet or brochure to the product during import, much like I can with the images. Again, I would be willing to make a donation to get this added. Let me know what donation would be needed and what the timeline would be.

Support / Re: How Can i remove un-necess...
Last post by timlight10 - July 21, 2026, 11:04:01 AMUnfortunately, I don't think that is what's happened. I have run a daily product import on my store. With "Update on SKU" selected, with a column of images, the importer created a new image each time the import was run. So I now have 20 copies of the same image. Some are assigned to a product, others are abandoned and not used. I want to remove the 20 copies * 5000 products that were uploaded.
Trouble is, these 5000 items are not the only products in the store. So I cannot just delete all images and then re-run the import. That would remove all images from all products and I do not want to do that. I just want to target the images that are abandoned.
