<h4>Shortcode Usage</h4>

<p>The shortcode accepts several attributes to customize its appearance and behavior:</p>

<li><code>class-name</code>: Adds custom CSS classes to the switch.
<ul>
<li>Default: is-style-default</li>
<li>Options: is-style-default, is-style-inline, or custom classes</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>switch-type</code>: Determines the style of the toggle.
<ul>
<li>Default: <code>switch</code></li>
<li>Options: <code>switch</code>, <code>buttons</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>switch-color</code>: Sets the color of the switch handle.</li>
<li><code>switch-color-checked</code>: Sets the color of the switch when it’s in the “on” position.</li>
<li><code>switch-background-color</code>: Sets the background color of the switch.</li>
<li><code>switch-text-color</code>: Sets the text color of the switch labels.</li>
<li><code>switch-background-color-checked</code>: Sets the background color of the switch when it’s in the “on” position.</li>
<li><code>switch-label-incl</code>: Sets the text for the “including VAT” label.
<ul>
<li>Default: Uses the text set in the plugin settings or “Incl. VAT” if not set.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>switch-label-excl</code>: Sets the text for the “excluding VAT” label.
<ul>
<li>Default: Uses the text set in the plugin settings or “Excl. VAT” if not set.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Example with custom attributes:</p>
<pre><code>[wdevs_tax_switch class-name="is-style-inline" switch-type="switch" switch-color="#ffffff" switch-color-checked="#000000" switch-background-color="#000000" switch-background-color-checked="#4CAF50" switch-text-color="#FF0000" switch-label-incl="Incl. tax" switch-label-excl="Excl. tax"]
</code></pre>
<p><strong>Label</strong></p>
<p>Basic usage:<br />
[wdevs_tax_switch_label]</p>
<p>Displays text indicating the currently selected tax setting. The text updates automatically when the tax switch is toggled.</p>
<p>The shortcode accepts several attributes to customize its appearance and behavior:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>class-name</code>: Adds custom CSS classes to the label.
<ul>
<li>Default: is-style-default</li>
<li>Options: is-style-default or custom classes</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>label-text-incl</code>: Sets the text to display when “including VAT” is selected.
<ul>
<li>Default: Uses the text set in the plugin settings or “Incl. VAT” if not set.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>label-text-excl</code>: Sets the text to display when “excluding VAT” is selected.
<ul>
<li>Default: Uses the text set in the plugin settings or “Excl. VAT” if not set.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>label-text-color</code>: Sets the “excluding VAT” text color.</li>
<li><code>label-text-color-checked</code>: Sets the “including VAT” text color.</li>
</ul>
<p>Example with custom attributes:</p>
<pre><code>[wdevs_tax_switch_label class-name="tax-indicator" label-text-incl="Prices include tax" label-text-excl="Prices exclude tax" label-text-color="#FF0000" label-text-color-checked="#4CAF50"]
</code></pre>
<h4>PHP implementation</h4>
<p>You can use these shortcodes with PHP with the do_shortcode() function:</p>
<pre><code><?php echo do_shortcode('[wdevs_tax_switch]'); ?>
<?php echo do_shortcode('[wdevs_tax_switch_label]'); ?>
</code></pre>
<h4>JavaScript events</h4>
<p>The switch fires a JavaScript event when the tax display is toggled. You can listen for this event to execute custom code when a user switches between inclusive and exclusive VAT display. This is useful for when you need to perform additional actions based on the tax display state.</p>
<pre><code>document.addEventListener('wdevs-tax-switch-changed', function(event) {
   console.log(event.detail);
   // event.detail contains:
   // - isSwitched: boolean - the raw switch state
   // - displayIncludingVat: boolean - whether prices now display including VAT
 });
</code></pre>
<p>If you are loading the switch dynamically (via AJAX), dispatch this event after rendering to initialize the component:</p>
<pre><code>   document.dispatchEvent( new CustomEvent('wdevs-tax-switch-appeared') );
</code></pre>
<h3>WPML</h3>
<p>To translate the option texts via WPML:</p>
<ol>
<li>Save your options first in: WooCommerce -> Settings -> Tax Switch</li>
<li>Then translate the texts in: WPML -> String Translations and search for your option values in the domain ‘tax-switch-for-woocommerce’</li>
</ol>

Quaderno: Global Tax & Invoicing Automation for WooCommerce

It's a useful plugin and service. The support is excellent.

The service sometimes has problems (e.g. not applying the right VAT for a few days ending up dozens of invoicing mistakes exported to Xero - a lot of manual work to fix).

There's a severe incompatibility with WooCommerce's Subscription module: when you use your WooCommerce with VAT inclusive prices, the VAT calculation is wrong as soon as a subscriber manually renews his/her subscription (e.g. after a failed automatic charge). The Quaderno support is constructive with it, and the WooCommerce Subscription plugin developers are said to work on it, but this has been reported for months now without a result).

Good service and support, but has some incompatibility

Automate global tax calculations and compliant invoicing for WooCommerce. Handle sales tax, VAT, GST worldwide with instant reports.
