Default currency BO versus FO

[Zeryk]

In BO I have default currency CNY , but I was wondering if its possible to make a default currency on website $. I mean I don't want to change my default currency but I need when customers abroad open my shop , it would give prices in $ without taping on currency button. Problem is , that it seem like they don't notice there is any. Ive got few feedbacks saying" would be nice to have prices in $ or Eur. " Im tired to txt everyone " check top right corner " :-(  and I need to keep my default CNY currency in my BO.

Hi, unfortunately there's no such configuration option. You have to make changes to php code. But it's quite easy. Edit file classes/Tools.php, find function setCurrency (line ~613) and replace 

 

if (!Validate::isLoadedObject($currency) || (bool)$currency->deleted || !(bool)$currency->active) {
  $currency = Currency::getCurrencyInstance(Configuration::get('PS_CURRENCY_DEFAULT'));
}

 

with

if (!Validate::isLoadedObject($currency) || (bool)$currency->deleted || !(bool)$currency->active) {
  $currency = Currency::getCurrencyInstance(Currency::getIdByIsoCode('EUR'));
}

Don't forget to change 'EUR' to iso code of currency you want as default on frontend
