Hiding Country prefix of a price "A$x.xx" Prestashop 1.7.4.2

[cmroanirgo]

I'm a bit stuck trying to figure out why my store keeps displaying all my prices with an 'A' in front of them, eg 'A$1.00' rather than '$1.00'.

The store is for Australia and have set everything I can find to be Australian.

Debugging the code (using XDebug), I find that src\Core\CLDR\Repository.php getPrice() is still thinking that my locale is set to 'en-US'...And this is where the problem really is.... because in the 'culture' tables for the US, it says that Australian currencies should be displayed with an 'A' in the front of it. (It's wrong btw: it should display AUD afterwards... but that's beside the point).

I've tried:

- "Localization > Import a localization pack". It seems to do nothing

- Creating my own 'Language' with country code 'OZ' (a nonsensical one) and region as 'en-AU' (I've tried en and AU variants too)

- Deleting / Creating a currency

- In "Localization > Configuration" I have set Langage (Oz), "Set Language from Browser" AND "set default Country from browser" to FALSE, Default Country is "Australia", Timezone is Sydney

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Craig

Hey there Craig,

It is maddening right! is that version 1.7.4.2 or .3?

I was going to use the Prestashop demo back office to help you, but some smart butt deleted the user:) It auto resets every 10 minutes or so.. so it will be back:)

So the manual states "International" menu, "Localization" page, "Configuration" section. " is where to set this BUT as you mentioned the data is wrong. So lets fix it shall we?

I believe you can change this in the backoffice under the Translations section

Open it up and see if you can find the sections there will be more then 1 backoffice front end etc  marked ISO  when I look at the code that is where it pulls the text from for the A before the $ amount.

I do not have a shop set up with that local, and i do not want to log into a live one to play around (and possibly break it ) so that is the best i can do atm to help.

Thanks for your feedback, but I'm not having much luck in finding anything worthwhile in the translations section.

I'm on Presta 1.7.4.2

@jstillings1 Thanks, but that's what the problem is. Selecting it shows the wrong symbol.

I've raised this as a fault, since it seems that there isn't a simple fix.
