Setting the Currency option

Post by robinduckett »

Hello, in the overall settings of the site, I want to change the euro symbol and comma point to a standard UK sterling symbol and point point. How do I do this please?
Sorry if this has been asked in the forum before, the search function just throws up lots of internet ads.
Cheers, Robin

OK - I found there is a currency plugin, so I installed that. I didn't find anything in the documentation about it, I just trawled the internet. However the £ sign is after the amount numbers, not before, and I don't see an option about that in the plugin. Does anyone know about that? Thanks, Robin

Hi,
You can either change the currency Euro to British Pound ('Currency Symbol' parameter) under 'Currencies', or create the British Pound as a second currency.
Under 'Currencies' you can also set whether the currency symbol should be displayed before or after the price in the respective currency ('Price Format' parameter) . The decimal symbol can also be set there ('Price Decimal Symbol' parameter).

I'm not sure from which plugin you are talking... :idea:

Kind regards,

There is currency module which displayes a currency switcher in frontend to switch between currencies and Phoca Cart Currency System plugin which adds an option to set default currency based on website language. But I think, you mean options of currency in Phoca Cart directly?
