Hi there,
I'm wondering how to add a currency converter, so users will be able to convert the price to the equivalent to their currencies. The main currency is the Canadian Dollar. However, I will be configured it using paypal. I do not want users to see the converted currencies throughout the checkout process. I only want the Canadian currency to be showing in checkout.

thanks, :)

Hi,

Just set the other currencies are "displayed" and not "published" via the menu System->Currencies.
That way, users will be able to see the prices in the other currencies if they change the current currency with the hikashop currency switcher module, and during the checkout a message will tell them that the currency has been changed to CAD for the payment and they will see the prices in CAD.

Thanks Nicolas, this solves my issue during the checkout process. However, in the product page they still can see the two currencies ,the main and the converted . When I switch the hikashope currency switcher to the desire currency I still see the tow currencies. For example :

Main currency : CAD

Product :RAM
Price : ( CAD 20 )

After switching to US :
price : ( CAD 20 ) ( US 19.30 ) I want to hide the CAD , and only display US after switching. :)
