jena Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Hi, My store has three currency options, I was wondering how the rates are updated when a customer chooses a currency other than default currency? I know the latest rates can be updated manually in localization > currency, or adding cron to run the prestashop webservice, but wonder if the rates are updated when the customers change the currency (that is the rate update function is hooked with currency update event). Thanks in advance for clearing my doubt. -- Jena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuk66 Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Stored currency rate is used when the customer switch the currency in your shop. You must update currency rates on your own periodically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jena Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 I know that the Currency rate should be updated once or thrice everyday manually or using Cron. But I think it is good practices to enable Users actions to update the Prestashop webservices as well. Is there any limitations to do so? Just an Idea! -- Jena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuk66 Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 How much do change your rates within a day? Banks publish rates once a day. I wouldn't care about 0.1% changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
