[thilip.xandy]

Hi I want to show the currency in my store, based on the IP accessed.

 

In case if the store accessed from USA, product price will be shown in '$',  if it is accessed fomr europe the price must in 'Euro'. How to implement on this, anyone please hlep me,

 

Thnaks in advance.

this can be accomplished the way:

 

back office-->preferences-->geolocation

 

enable geolocation

 

then

 

back office-->localization-->countries-->edit county(ies)

 

set the default currency

 

 

Warning: when geolocation is active, and IP can not be found, then PrestaShop will follow the behavior defined in geolocation.  There is an issue with those that want the IP that can not be determined to default to shop country.  This can result in lost sales.

 

I have passion for Geo Location, see these modules:

Hi EI patron: 

                  First thanks a lot for your reply. Hope you understand what is my requirement, if not I clearly in brief.

When site viewer views from USA the site currency set to US Doller. In case if the site visitor visit from europe the site currency set to euro this is my requirment.

 

how can I process for this. I'm new to prestashop development. kindly please help to come out from this, 

 

Thanks in advance.

here is modified function classes/controller/FrontController.php

 

I've commented '//' out the 'reject' when IP not found, this will allow visitors whose IP address can not be resolved to use default country.

	protected function geolocationManagement($default_country)
	{
		if (!in_array($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'], array('localhost', '127.0.0.1')))
		{
			/* Check if Maxmind Database exists */
			if (file_exists(_PS_GEOIP_DIR_.'GeoLiteCity.dat'))
			{
				if (!isset($this->context->cookie->iso_code_country) || (isset($this->context->cookie->iso_code_country) && !in_array(strtoupper($this->context->cookie->iso_code_country), explode(';', Configuration::get('PS_ALLOWED_COUNTRIES')))))
				{
					include_once(_PS_GEOIP_DIR_.'geoipcity.inc');

					$gi = geoip_open(realpath(_PS_GEOIP_DIR_.'GeoLiteCity.dat'), GEOIP_STANDARD);
					$record = geoip_record_by_addr($gi, Tools::getRemoteAddr());

					if (is_object($record))
					{
						if (!in_array(strtoupper($record->country_code), explode(';', Configuration::get('PS_ALLOWED_COUNTRIES'))) && !FrontController::isInWhitelistForGeolocation())
						{
							if (Configuration::get('PS_GEOLOCATION_BEHAVIOR') == _PS_GEOLOCATION_NO_CATALOG_)
								$this->restrictedCountry = true;
							elseif (Configuration::get('PS_GEOLOCATION_BEHAVIOR') == _PS_GEOLOCATION_NO_ORDER_)
								$this->context->smarty->assign(array(
									'restricted_country_mode' => true,
									'geolocation_country' => $record->country_name
								));
						}
						else
						{
							$has_been_set = !isset($this->context->cookie->iso_code_country);
							$this->context->cookie->iso_code_country = strtoupper($record->country_code);
						}
					}
				}

				if (isset($this->context->cookie->iso_code_country) && $this->context->cookie->iso_code_country && !Validate::isLanguageIsoCode($this->context->cookie->iso_code_country))
					$this->context->cookie->iso_code_country = Country::getIsoById(Configuration::get('PS_COUNTRY_DEFAULT'));
				if (isset($this->context->cookie->iso_code_country) && ($id_country = Country::getByIso(strtoupper($this->context->cookie->iso_code_country))))
				{
					/* Update defaultCountry */
					if ($default_country->iso_code != $this->context->cookie->iso_code_country)
						$default_country = new Country($id_country);
					if (isset($has_been_set) && $has_been_set)
						$this->context->cookie->id_currency = (int)(Currency::getCurrencyInstance($default_country->id_currency ? (int)$default_country->id_currency : Configuration::get('PS_CURRENCY_DEFAULT'))->id);
					return $default_country;
				}
//				elseif (Configuration::get('PS_GEOLOCATION_NA_BEHAVIOR') == _PS_GEOLOCATION_NO_CATALOG_ && !FrontController::isInWhitelistForGeolocation())
//					$this->restrictedCountry = true;
//				elseif (Configuration::get('PS_GEOLOCATION_NA_BEHAVIOR') == _PS_GEOLOCATION_NO_ORDER_ && !FrontController::isInWhitelistForGeolocation())
//					$this->context->smarty->assign(array(
//						'restricted_country_mode' => true,
//						'geolocation_country' => 'Undefined'
//					));
			}
			/* If not exists we disabled the geolocation feature */
			else
				Configuration::updateValue('PS_GEOLOCATION_ENABLED', 0);
		}
		return false;
	}

 

this can be accomplished from back office, see above.

 

back office-->preferences-->geolocation

 

enable geolocation

 

then

 

back office-->localization-->countries-->edit county(ies)

 

set the default currency

 

Ciao El Patron

 

I have the same need: only EUR for Europe; only DOLLAR for USA.

I enabled the geolocalization and set-up the default currency USD for the country USA.

It works but I would to show only the default currency without the possibility to change it.

How can I do it?

 

thanks

Angela

[afshop]

you would disable module block concurrences

 

becauseof danger using geo localization, I created advanced ietf module

http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/349727-module-advanced-visitor-language-currency-localization-ietf/.

 

Ciao;

 

I'm seeing your modules;

 

there is also this: http://www.etiendas.co/en/34-geo-targeting-pro-price-by-country.html

 

I have 2 needs:

 

1 - A different price list for country in Euro 

2 - A different price list for USA in USD

 

For each country I have to show only the specific price list in the correct currency.

 

which is the better your module for my case?

 

Let me know.

thanks

instead of http://www.etiendas.co/en/59-advanced-visitor-language-currency-localization.html

if you want to use 'specific price by country' then geo tarteting pro, this extends native ps geo localization (makes it work), you do not want to use native geo location as geolitecity.dat is about 85% accurate...and if not resolved IP it disallows shopping..geo targeting pro solves this issue.

 

the advacned ietf, is an additional module..for advanced language | currency detection.  note: when used with geo targeting pro, then the currency will be set in that module.

I wrote new module, that works better in that we do not rely on IP.  the module uses http_accept_language.

 

http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/349727-module-advanced-visitor-language-currency-localization-ietf/

please see this link for front office demo and user guide to see how it works.

 

you may also note that I will double your purchase price if it's not the best module on the planet for visitor localization.

If i am having english and french in my site, how to add the english to US and french to london.

shall i add german from your module?

the solution is using actual visitor information/preferences from http request to determine language, then we match the currency as set in native prestashop-->localization-->countries-->edit country-->set default currency.  T

 

you would not add German to module (this module is so accurate, that there is no configuration required.)  You would simply add German language to your shop, set Germany default currency as described above and sleep well at night.

Hi El Patron,

 

For the site I work on, we need to have specific language / specific currency / specific prices depending on where the user is.

 

We bought your module Geo Targeting Pro few months ago because it was apparently the best option (?).

 

Can you confirm it;s still the best way to go, or your new module is better for our needs ?

Howdy!

 

well geo targeting pro primary reason for existence if price by country(make sure you  have v.4.6)...secondary is marrying currency to country....

 

the issue with any 'ip' detection, is what to do with 'non-resolved' ip's...it uses shop default...this is issue I'm addressing now...release later...(note this will allow 'any' detect module to use default you choose, not shop default currency)

 

ietf will not be best choice (currency) for you right now, geo targeting will set currency to resolved country, ietf is called later and will not set currency as it's already set...note: ietf is for lang...secondary currency...so if you want best in class lang detect, then ietf is for you (anyone).

 

happy geoing...el

Hey El Patron,

 

I checked the back-end and it says my version is 4.0 (see attached)

It doesnt automatically proposes me to update it...is there a newer version? Manual update ?

I'd like the site visitor to be "country identified" by his IP, then depending on his IP country to setup the currency and prices accordingly.

 

Thanks!

with geo targeting pro...

for currency:

back office-->localization-->countries-->edit a country-->set default currency

now currency is selected by country resolved by IP

 

for prices

back office-->catalog-->products-->edit a product-->prices-->add new specific price 'by country'

now visitors by country specific price is shown for this product.

 

that's it

Hi El Patron,

Do you know if it's possible to use the import / CSV function to import products with different prices for different countries ?

(in  the csv panel these fields are missing, making me think that it's not possible...)

Hi El Patron,

 

We realized we have a currency formatting issue:

When using japanese Yens, we don't want to have for example 1925 yens, but it should e formatted to 1900 yens (kind of marketing rounding, it looks cleaner and usual for japanese clients...)

 

Because the default currency of the shop is euro, when we put specific price for japan we have to put them in euro...and with the exchange rate, we always get prices displayed in Yens that are too precise for us like 1925 yens, but we would like them to be rounded/formatted to 1900 yens.

 

I hope you can understand my issue and propose me an option ?

(I'd like to avoid to use Yen as the default store currency if possible...)

 

Many thanks,

G

I understand working in multi-currency and displaying can be a bit of a pain

I have module that allows you to have different front office default currency than back office: (and it is FREE module)

https://www.prestaheroes.com/prestashop-module/60-front-office-default-currency.html

 

when you visit my shop switch to yen, I use another of my modules to charm endings, so you will notice  all my yes are xx,500.  this done by Price Charming Module.

 

and one other module I had fun writing, Advanced IETF lang/currency detect,  it expands ps basic visitor browser lang detect so if lang jap it will set yen as currency..holy!

 

Please note, I am not pushing you to buy my geo modules, but it's an area I have some passion for and like to chat about.  Happy day, el.
