I live in a country where EURO is going to replace local currency. Exchage rate is fixed.
There's a period of time where price in BOTH, local and EURO currency, must be displayed.
I am using Virtuemart 2.0.24 with Joomla 2.5.9

How to display both prices?

Hello,
Interesting issue.
U can't display 2 currencies at once . But You can provide to Your customers to change currency.
How to:
1) Enter Virtuemart->shop->vendor --> available currencies. add currency euro
   as I understand all products prices are in local old currency so
2) Enter Virtuemart->shop->currencies   find euro - fixed rate put correct rate
3) publish module "currency changer"  (included in Vm) it will provide options to choose currency

By the way what county are You?

Hi sadrem,
I know it can be done. I am in Latvia. I found on this forum old topic from 2007 when someone in Slovenia faced same problem. Advices in that topic does not work for me anymore. And my php knowledge is very basic.
Both prices must be displayed in same time without converters.
