AleCabral Posted October 11, 2006 Posted October 11, 2006 You may have realized by my question that I'm not speciallized on scripting. I'm an entrepeneur. Here's the thing: I live in Argentina, our local currency is Argentinian Peso. I created the currency succesfully and set it as default, but when I access the store I see every product in USD. Users can change the currency of course, but my problem is I will only work with Argentinian Pesos. Not with USD or EUR. If I delete both coins (USD & EUR), and just leave ARS, my products will show "0" instead of the proper price I set. So my question is, how do I change this so that the only coin that shows is the one I will be using? Thanks a lot, Alejandro

Guest Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 Admin > Localization > Currency and set ARS as the default. I believe the OP already did this. ;) :) I've had the same problem but not been concerned by it since I'm busy working on other aspects of the site. My understanding is that -- as per the warning you get before setting a new currency as default -- you have to perform a manual update of your product prices. Good luck. :)
Daemonj Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 So long as the value of the currency that is being set as the default is 1.0 then the product prices should not be affected. I believe the change that needs to be made is in the language file. Edit the includes/languages/english.php file and set the currency to ARS as well.

Guest Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 So long as the value of the currency that is being set as the default is 1.0 then the product prices should not be affected. I just had a look at my test site. What I'd done is DELETE the other currencies and made AUD default. However, what I hadn't done was to click "Update Currencies". After doing that all the prices have returned. Maybe the OP can try doing this too, if not already attempted.
AleCabral Posted October 12, 2006 Author Posted October 12, 2006 Hi guys! Thanks for your comments. I?ve done most of this, the only thing I didn?t do for now was to modify the languages include. Actually, I haven?t deleted the languages out of fear I would break the thing down! I?ll try, then come back. Thanks!! Alejandro
