Displying the default currency

[willieb]

Hi,

 

I have set the default currency for my oscommerce template to Euro but when I enter the onine store the prices are displayed in USD and I have to click on the euro in the currency display on left of screen.

 

How can I have my shop display the Euro automatically.

 

Thanks,

Press "update" in the currency panel then try again. When I changed the currency it didn't want to show until I updated the exchange rates

You need to make the EURyour default currency in Admin.

 

You also need to do this:

 

look in catalog\includes\languages\english.php and make

// if USE_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE_CURRENCY is true, use the following currency, instead of the applications default currency (used when changing language)

define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'USD');

 

this

 

// if USE_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE_CURRENCY is true, use the following currency, instead of the applications default currency (used when changing language)

define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'EUR');

 

This should work unless you have a hacked template.
