"apply tax" for default to product/service

[Remitur]

Does exist any way to make that for default the "apply tax" box is ticked, in product/services?

 

Or a trick to take a number of products/services (all of themwith "apply tax" box unticked) and tick it in bulk?

there's no template to edit, so I guess you're looking at using jquery or an action hook to set it as checked... though i'm unsure if either would work... and perhaps only viable if you were taxing all your products and not just some... e.g if you have untaxed products, you wouldn't want that checkbox to be automatically ticked as upon saving it would then become a taxed product.

you could directly edit the values in the database table - tblproducts - it will have a 'tax' column that will be set to 0 if there is no tax applied to the product, and 1 if there is... you could use phpmyadmin (or similar) to either edit individual values or run a sql update to change some/all of these values.

 

always remembering to backup the database before doing this!
