PayPal Currency Change

[ewebbed]

Hi

I received the following email from PayPal announcing their new currencies:

http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p...c/mc_wa-outside

 

Is there a file i can change within oscommerce that allows me to have the payment in GBP instead of dollars?

 

Many Thanks

Hi James!

 

You can check out the new release of the PayPal IPN Payment Module released a few minutes ago! :)

 

Read that message and there you will also find the links to the module.

 

I hope it helps!

 

best regards

hi again

So is that the only way to change the currency, i only offer GBP so is there a 'simple' fix to the current files that will enable me to do this?

 

Simple as in minimum effort!!

thanks

Hi James

 

Try editing the /catalog/includes/payment/modules/paypal.php file and change from this code:

 

      $process_button_string = tep_draw_hidden_field('cmd', '_xclick') .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('business', MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_ID) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('item_name', STORE_NAME) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('amount', number_format(($order->info['total'] - $order->info['shipping_cost']) * $currencies->currencies['USD']['value'], 2)) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('shipping', number_format($order->info['shipping_cost'] * $currencies->get_value('USD'), 2)) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('return', tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_PROCESS, '', 'SSL')) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('cancel_return', tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_PAYMENT, '', 'SSL'));

 

To this:

 

      $process_button_string = tep_draw_hidden_field('cmd', '_xclick') .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('business', MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_ID) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('item_name', STORE_NAME) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('amount', number_format(($order->info['total'] - $order->info['shipping_cost']) * $currencies->currencies['GBP']['value'], 2)) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('shipping', number_format($order->info['shipping_cost'] * $currencies->get_value('GBP'), 2)) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('currency_code','GBP') .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('return', tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_PROCESS, '', 'SSL')) .

                              tep_draw_hidden_field('cancel_return', tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_PAYMENT, '', 'SSL'));

 

I think that should work

 

Make sure you have GBP as an available currency in your shop!

 

Best regards
