[SOLVED] Currency symbol translation

[outlet.ee]

The currency in Estonia is 'kr', short for 'kroon'. However, in Russian the short is 'кр' but there is no option for translating the currency symbol. I was wondering whether there is another way of modifying it?

I suggest modifying classes/Tools.php and adding the following in the displayPrice function after the $c_char = line:

if ($c_char == 'kr' AND $cookie->id_lang == 8)
   $c_char = 'кр';

Change 8 to the id of the Russian language on your website.

You may need to add the following at the start of the function to allow access to the cookie:

global $cookie;

Thank you for the prompt reply.

when I inserted the cookie, I received an error 'cannot link to the database'. Where exactly should I insert the cookie?

Also it says 'if you modified this function, don't forget to modify the Javascript function formatCurrency (in tools.js) if ($convert)*/, what sould I modify in there?

static public function displayPrice($price, $currency, $no_utf8 = false, $convert = true)
   {
       /* if you modified this function, don't forget to modify the Javascript function formatCurrency (in tools.js) */
       if ($convert)
           $price = self::convertPrice($price, $currency);
       if (is_int($currency))
           $currency = new Currency(intval($currency));
       $c_char = (is_array($currency) ? $currency['sign'] : $currency->sign);
       if ($c_char == 'kr' AND $cookie->id_lang == 4)
       $c_char = 'кр'; 
       $c_format = (is_array($currency) ? $currency['format'] : $currency->format);
       $c_decimals = (is_array($currency) ? intval($currency['decimals']) : intval($currency->decimals)) * _PS_PRICE_DISPLAY_PRECISION_;
       $c_blank = (is_array($currency) ? $currency['blank'] : $currency->blank);
       $blank = ($c_blank ? ' ' : '');
       $ret = 0;
       if (($isNegative = ($price < 0)))
           $price *= -1;
       switch ($c_format)
        {
             /* X 0,000.00 */
             case 1:
               $ret = $c_char.$blank.number_format($price, $c_decimals, '.', ',');
               break;
           /* 0 000,00 X*/
           case 2:
               $ret = number_format($price, $c_decimals, ',', ' ').$blank.$c_char;
               break;
           /* X 0.000,00 */
           case 3:
               $ret = $c_char.$blank.number_format($price, $c_decimals, ',', '.');
               break;
           /* 0,000.00 X */
           case 4:
               $ret = number_format($price, $c_decimals, '.', ',').$blank.$c_char;
               break;
       }
       if ($isNegative)
           $ret = '-'.$ret;
       if ($no_utf8)
           return str_replace('€', chr(128), $ret);
       return $ret;
   }

It should be the first line of the function like this:

static public function displayPrice($price, $currency, $no_utf8 = false, $convert = true)
   {
       /* if you modified this function, don't forget to modify the Javascript function formatCurrency (in tools.js) */
       global $cookie;
       if ($convert)
           $price = self::convertPrice($price, $currency);
       if (is_int($currency))
           $currency = new Currency(intval($currency));
       $c_char = (is_array($currency) ? $currency['sign'] : $currency->sign);
       if ($c_char == 'kr' AND $cookie->id_lang == 4)
       $c_char = 'кр'; 
       $c_format = (is_array($currency) ? $currency['format'] : $currency->format);
       $c_decimals = (is_array($currency) ? intval($currency['decimals']) : intval($currency->decimals)) * _PS_PRICE_DISPLAY_PRECISION_;
       $c_blank = (is_array($currency) ? $currency['blank'] : $currency->blank);
       $blank = ($c_blank ? ' ' : '');
       $ret = 0;
       if (($isNegative = ($price < 0)))
           $price *= -1;
       switch ($c_format)
        {
             /* X 0,000.00 */
             case 1:
               $ret = $c_char.$blank.number_format($price, $c_decimals, '.', ',');
               break;
           /* 0 000,00 X*/
           case 2:
               $ret = number_format($price, $c_decimals, ',', ' ').$blank.$c_char;
               break;
           /* X 0.000,00 */
           case 3:
               $ret = $c_char.$blank.number_format($price, $c_decimals, ',', '.');
               break;
           /* 0,000.00 X */
           case 4:
               $ret = number_format($price, $c_decimals, '.', ',').$blank.$c_char;
               break;
       }
       if ($isNegative)
           $ret = '-'.$ret;
       if ($no_utf8)
           return str_replace('€', chr(128), $ret);
       return $ret;
   }

Thanks, it is working now but there is encoding issue, it gives ?? instead of кр.

Solved, I had to encode utf w/o BOM when editing in Notepad ++.

Thank you very much, Rocky!

Rocky,

I noticed it works with older products but not with the products added recently, however, there is no exact pattern on which it works. Do you have an idea why is that?
