Has anyone got a solution for this??? I think it's an pretty important feature. Someone must have made it work

Did you try this: https://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=106192.msg355855#msg355855 ?

That worked like a charm. Thank you very much. Where do i find the virtuemart_currency_id list? I dont know what IDs Danish Kroner, Swedish Kroner, Norweigan Kroner and Euro has.

To clarify what i did to make this work, to future troubleshooters:

I pasted the code under this line, after the line 37: $virtuemart_currency_id = $mainframe->getUserStateFromRequest( "virtuemart_currency_id", 'virtuemart_currency_id',JRequest::getInt('virtuemart_currency_id', $vendor_currency['vendor_currency']) );   ----- in the \modules\mod_virtuemart_currencies\mod_virtuemart_currencies.php file.

Code Select Expand

$jlang =JFactory::getLanguage();
$lang = $jlang->getTag();
if ($lang == "da-DK")
    {$virtuemart_currency_id = 208;}
    elseif ($lang == "se-SV")
    {$virtuemart_currency_id = 752;}
elseif ($lang == "no-NO")
    {$virtuemart_currency_id = 578;}
else
    {$virtuemart_currency_id = 978;}
The Currency IDs are random though..

There is no "list", I think. Not in VM backend. Browse your database table jos_virtuemart_currencies for virtuemart_currency_id.

Again thanks a lot. That really helped out. Everything is working perfectly now. Except i can't remove the decimals from my prices(even when disabling it in administration). But that is different topic :-P

Hi. I tried this plugin: http://www.easyjoomla.org/virtuemart-language-currency-switcher

And it works just like I need it

Hi to all,

This feature is also implemented in Artio's Joomsef for anyone interested. (We had asked this to the developers)

Rgrds,

Ok,
I think it's done right now, but it's changing core files, which is bad for biz.
Add this code:

Code Select Expand

$lang =& JFactory::getLanguage();
   
        if ($lang->get('tag') == "he-IL" ) {
             $currencyId  = 67;
              }
           else {
             $currencyId  = 144;
            }

In 2 places in the file (/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/helpers/currencydisplay.php):
1) Right after

Code Select Expand

public function getCurrencyForDisplay( $currencyId=0 ){
2) Right after

Code Select Expand

self::$_instance = new CurrencyDisplay($vendorId);

Just don't forget to change he-IL to french and the 67 to the french number.

Worked for me...

Thanks! works for me

hello
do you think its possible, with your code,  to change currencie for a specific category ?
I mean,  category number  instead of a language   

Products of Category1 (11111)=> $             other Category Products=>€


   
        if ($cat==11111 ) {
             $currencyId  = 67;
              }
           else {
             $currencyId  = 144;
            }

Thank You
