Title: currency price keeps changing
Post by: zaahideen on October 15, 2016, 11:56:10 AM
im a newbie to virtuecart.

ive set up a product costing 24GBP.

under PRODUCT PRICING i have added other prices for different currencies. 30USD and 28EUR.

however after saving it, on the front end i notice that the valuse are different to what i had inputted. 24GBP remains the same, but the USD and EUR values change. i assume it's something to do with the default conversion rates but i have set the conversion rates to 0. even then i get tis problem...

any help?

AFAIK you can set your own conversion rate but not specific other currency prices.  http://docs.virtuemart.net/faqs/93-how-can-i-define-my-own-currency-rate.html

real currency rates do change all the time for 5 days a week.. establish an average and round it up to what you think it's fair. more manual labor, but better than them changing constantly.
