Loaded Commerce Community

Hey,

Great forum, great people. Long time reader, first time poster.

Anyway, I have an issue with my shop. I have prices listed in Euro and British Pounds. I would like the customer to see the order total in the currency appropriate to their shipping address.

If for example the customer lives in Ireland they would see the order total in Euro and this is what would be sent to the payment gateway.

If the customer lives in the UK they would see the order total in British Pounds.

Trick here is that this must override the selected currency on the site. Reason for this is that I don't want folks in the UK ordering in Euro - for various reasons we must charge people in the currency that exists within the country the order is to be delivered to.

I'm very comfortable with PHP - just cannot find where in the Cre Loaded core this is handled. Any pointers/modules/tips/tricks would be greatly appreciated!

thanks,
Loughlin.

Hi Loughlin

I'd 'head that off at the pass' way before the checkout though - why not set currency based on the ip they're viewing the store on? This is an osC contribution which should roll ok on cre. They'd still be able to manually change the currency in the store if they wanted. So the assumption here is that they aren't sending to a different currency country (most don't.)
