Hello.


I live in the country where the national currency is BLR (belarusian ruble). And the prices are to displayed only in BLR due to the law. But the products I trade come with the USD prices. The currency rate changes every day and I want the price to be displayed in BLR but I want to set them up in USD in the administrator page.

Hi,

I think that you can use the multiple prices in the product edition page.
On price in USD, the other one in BLR. By this way you can set the price manually in the two different currencies.

Set the access level for the price in USD to none, doing this hide the price in USD to the customers.

The multiple price functionality is available in the business edition of HikaShop.

Well. Is something like that possible in business version? :

-There is some kind of "global USD rate", which I can edit in the administration page
-All the prices depend on the USD rate, the price is set in USD but displayed in BLR and the price for every product change when I edit this "global USD rate"

Hi,

Can you try to use the BLR as main currency in HikaShop > Configuration > Main, and set the product prices in USD in the product edition page.
By this way, the two prices will be displayed on the product page, and the price in BLR is automatically calculated depending on the actual currency rate.

Then you will have to edit the views "product / listing_price" and "checkout / listing_price" in HikaShop > Display > Views to hide the main price and display only the price in BLR.

:))) i used that, and when i updated the currency rate, it was said that the "BYR" currency is not on the list of the european central bank, so it can't update :)

i am afraid iam forced to use USD as a default currency)

Hi,

You can update it manually, just find the current rate and edit it in your currency in HikaShop > System > Currencies.
