Thread: How to add AUD$ to be displayed in the areas where price displayed???

I want to use AUD$ instead of $(US). And when the price of the products or any price displayed it should be in AUD$. Can someone tell me how to set that in my store???


Thank you

You have to make sure that AUD currency is marked as published in your site. You can verify it by going to Currencies page. Please see our manual here.

Yes it is set as published.

So it's working now? Do you want to use AUD currency only? You'll have to unpublished USD also on that page and set the store's default currency by going to Configuration -> Site configuration wizard.

In this site that I am working with, we use only one currency. That is AUD.

I have set the configuration wizard also.
Store currency as AUD
store currency Numeric code as 036

and in the currency configuration I set it as
Name Code Symbol Exchange Rate Published
--------- -------- ---------- -------------------- -------------
AU Dollars AUD AUD$ 1.00000 yes


but in the front view it just indicate prices like this - $175.50
Can't I change this $ sign and replace it with AUD$?


Thanks,

You might also need to ajust some stuff in your webconfig..

Correct. Since you want that en-AU will be your default locale, you'll have to change the <globalization> section of your web.config file also from en-US, change it to en-AU. Please try it and update us here if it works.

when I change the web.config file's globalization value into AU. In the front end it started showing the token parameters in the menu and in started showing the file name of the place where the price is assigning instead of displaying any value.

I have attached the image of the web site so that you can get some idea of whats really happeneing with my web page.

Thank you!

Upon changing the locale in your webconfig file, you have to make sure that you have string resources uploaded tied up to en-AU locale. For more information how to set this up properly, you can check our manual here and here.

Is there any way that I can keep the locale in en-US and change only the currency?
I wanted to display AUD$ instead of $.....

Revert back the changes on your web.config, then can you try updating the Display Spec of AUD on admin > Localization > Currencies > and then set #,###.00$ and let me know if this solve the issue.

Thank you for your reply but it doesn't work yet. When I publish another currency, yes then it works. Even when I use it in the previous way, when I set a another currency then it shows like this $200.00(AUD). But I don't want to give the customer to chose any currency. Simply what i want to set this AUD the default currency..


hope someone can help me.......

Thanks

Do you want to remove (AUD) text specifically? Or what is the exact format that you want to use for your site? Is it something like 1.00$ or $1.00 or 1.00$AUD?. Please be specific so we know what exactly you are looking for. Thanks.

What I want to make is something like this. I have attached the image of what I want as the final result.



thank you,

If you have the source code, you can modify the code through the Localization.cs file, function CurrencyStringForDisplayWithoutExchangeRate and then just modify the line above the counterpart below.

This is just to hardcode the AUD$. Let me know how it goes.

I am sorry I don't have the source code with me. Is there any other way that I can handle this matter?

Thanks,

Without changing the source, no.
