Multiple Currencies

[Brollox]

I want the customer to be able to select one of two currencies, and have both created in the admin panel. there is nowhere on my site that the customer can select his prefered currency. alternatively I'd like the product to show price in both currencies. I have googled this to no ends and as per usual got loads of info but none that helps.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Oh and by the way you're dealing with a total novice here, so there might be something stupid that I missed.

As for the customer having the option to choose, that code is in all stock oscommerce shops. If there isn't such an option showing on your site, then it has been altered to remove that. If it is there but you only have one currency, then look in admin->Localization->Currencies to be sure you have more than one. Once you have that working, then look at the Second Currency contribution in My Addons. That will allow you to show the price in two currencies at once.

Hi Jack

 

I think it must have been altered. Where do I look and how do I fix this?

 

I do have two currencies set up, but I guess the above mentioned coding has to be fixed before your Second Currency contribution will work.

That's difficult to say since I don't how your files were altered but if your shop is using the includes/column_left.php file, then add this code to that file before the last ?>

  if (substr(basename($PHP_SELF), 0, 8) != 'checkout') {
include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'currencies.php');
 }
