DJ_Ironic Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Hello, I need to do one "simple" thing. I need to switch currency based on visitors country. I read a lot about it on this forum and I am confused. I read really long and pretty old thread and there where a lot of answers. I tried them including the default currency for country and language switch module disbled...and nothing works. So I want to ask you...how to do it now on prestashop 1.6.1.5 (only version working with our template). As I said, I tried things from the post...what should be 1.6 archive. Now the language will switch automatically based on your browser language, but I want currency to do it too. Thank you for your help. Thanks, Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daresh Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I do it this way: - enable geolocation (and upload the file to the server) - set default currency for each country This approach always worked for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Ironic Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 Hi Daresh, thank you for your answer. Do you have "Set language from browser" and "Set default country from browser language" enabled? And do you have "Currency block" addon enabled? Because that's my actual setup + these two steps you send me and it does not work. But thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daresh Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Yes, all that is set. I did it for this shop: http://royaldeco.co.uk/pl/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Ironic Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 (edited) Hmm..that´s interesting. I just tested it with user-agent set to PL. I got your site in Polish, but still with euro currency. But when I access with Polish proxy. I will get the site with PLN, so it works. Can you please test my site olimpex.eu from Poland? I set Poland as a country with € as a default currency. Maybe my testing method is just wrong and it works just fine. Thank you Edited January 4, 2018 by DJ_Ironic removed site printscree (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creative7 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Hi, having a similar issue. I have a EU store that defaults to euros for the EU and GBP for the UK. The currency stays as GBP until checkout and then reverts back to euros. Any help greatly appreciated, driving me mad!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Ironic Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 OK, My eshop working just fine now. You just need to have both IP and browser lang from selected country. And thanks Daresh. That what you should get. 4 hours ago, creative7 said: Hi, having a similar issue. I have a EU store that defaults to euros for the EU and GBP for the UK.

If you want, I can test your site from czech IP and browser. What I know is that...the cookies for language and currency is interesting...sometimes it ignores even private mode in browsers.

creative7 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I have the geoIP installed. The currencies display fine for different countries but for instance the order will display on cart in GBP then I login or create an account and it reverts to euros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
