Guest Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 when you say default contribution you mean the stock paypal module or a contribution if so what's the contribution's link? For the stock module make sure the default currency of your store is GBP and then leave the paypal "Transaction Currency" to "selected currency", see if that works.

It still converts to $ but passes through the total. When i change to GBP only, the paypal payment options hides in 'select payment' i have installed the latest IPN paypal module but still no success. (http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,2679) This issue happens on the default and the latest contribution. ive added GBP as the only currency but still no luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It goes to paypal and shows the currency as GBP and the proper total values. Who's converting it to USD? Make sure the default currency is set in the osc files too.

'Make sure the default currency is set in the osc files too.' - where would i find this? im mainly looking in admin as this is where i thought all the settings were. Have a go at ordering. You may need to do a bogus trial account just to go through to checkout. http://www.sketchbagz.co.uk/shop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have changed the 'my currency' in paypal.php in moduls to 'GBP' which was USD previously. I now get the correct '£' currency but the order total isnt carried through For some reason when i specify a zone, e.g. United kingdom in the paypal options in admin, the option to pay via paypal dissapears!!!!
