Title: Change 'Price' display from 3,50 $ to $3.50 NZD
Post by: Newb2vm on August 27, 2012, 10:19:10 AM

hi there ,

just installed VM2 , and Iam having problems with finding the area pertaining to how the price is displayed...

basically the Price is displayed by default : Sales price: 35,47 $

wondering why there is no easy way to change this to read: Price $35.47 NZD ?

Assuming that I need to do some Ninjitsu in the template files to correct this?

Q. in order to change the Token text's (Sales price,Base price with tax:,etc) , are these also easily configured in like manner or do I require a Yellow Belt?

To gain yellow belt in Language skills Name change:

go to joomla>>extension manager>>language manager>>overrides>>new>>type in the text you want to change in search>>eg price ( now many options will appear) - just change the text>> and move to the next level.

good luck on your mission.

After several frustrating moments of clicking all things 'Language' and coming up against small locks with no keys and area's lacking features such as 'Override' etc.. I had to consult the Great Oracle 'Google' in respect to such things..

http://www.ostraining.com/blog/joomla/languge-manager/

from here I experienced a ZEN like moment where all the wise directions given to me from you became like pure water in a cistern from the Wugang River. (http://scenery.cultural-china.com/en/110Scenery10410.html)

Ehem.. Basically established that clicking 'Extension Manager' and then from the Drop Down Clicking 'Language Manager' had the desired effect.

Thank you once more.
