[SOLVED] Currency Block problem Prestashop 1.5.5

[okaty]

Hi,

 

I have a problem with my prestashop store recently. When I access the website form Chrome, I can't change the default currency "lei" to euro or dollar, but it works with Microsoft Edge for example. I didn't change anything about the store or the theme recently, and last time I checked it was working fine (online for 3 years). This is the website www.echipamentengm.ro. I looked on the other posts but I couldn't find something relevant to solve my problem. 

 

Thanks in advance

Hi, I  just tested on all three browsers,  ff/edge/chrome without issue.  Maybe someone else can test.

Works fine on all browsers for me too.

Ok, I deleted the cache from Chrome again and now it seems it's working .

 

But I saw other customers having the same problem as I had. I used HotJar software to see recordings of what customers exactly do on the website, and I saw a customer from UK having the same problem, and when I checked on my PC I had it as well.

 

If I Force Compile, should this solve the problem for old customers? And if Yes how much should I leave it on, because it takes  longer to load the page. I'm not really sure how this feature works. Does it have any effect if I turn it on and the off, or I have to keep it on?

 

Nonetheless thank you very much for the help.

using chrome for example, when situation arises or just for testing ctl+alt+j and watch 'console' see if you get any .js errors.

 

also 1.5, IMHO was not so good to use until 1.5.6.2, but now your shop is getting pretty dated so you may want to consider upgrade in future to later 1.6.

 

best of luck!

What I meant was when I get a problem (or a client for this matter)  with the website because of the cache stored by the browser, what action should I take so that the next time he will visit the website, prestashop will force his browser to recompile the website, deleting old cache who gave the errors , but to do this only once, not every time he visits it so the loading time wouldn't be affected.

 

And about the Prestashop version, I started planning a new website look and feel, and I will implement the new changes when the official Prestashop 1.7 comes out; hopefully soon
