Title: Show user's currency on backend
Post by: sandomatyas on September 07, 2021, 22:10:34 PM
There is a multi-currency shop. When customers order with EUR, USD etc they got the correct amount and currency symbol in the mails but the backend always shows the vendor's currency (EUR), no matter if the order was placed with USD.
Is it possible to show the order's currency in VM backend?

My expirience - we use our plugin Country / Curency and then you can see right order currency symbol in emails, administration, etc...
You can try on www.zelenazeme.cz:
Basic currency is CZK, after change country to Slovakia, then you see currency EUR and you can try to make order.

Maybe exist core solution? :)

Yes, VM 3.0.3 from 2015 (sorry, but in that time VM DEV long time develop new version for J3 - is not my problem) now on PHP74 and J3.9.26

And what do you want?

I think your post looks like spamming, I don't need to point out something that works and earns money (we have a lot of shops on VM 3.0.3).
Other people can constantly upgrade their shopes when it enjoys and customers pay it.
Fortunately, we use another strategy.

Thanks :)

I believe what Maxim is pointing out is that what works for a 6 year old VM version may not work for current versions.

@sandomatyas by default the backend currency is that of the vendor. I don't think there is even a hidden config to change that setting.
