Editing a currency

No ratings yet

To change a currency, open Store > Currencies (/shop/currencylist) and click Edit in its row. The edit page has the same fields as the creation form: code, symbol, formatting locale, custom rate and rate factor. Click Store changes, or Cancel to leave without changes.

Some changes can be made directly in the list, for several currencies at once: the Status (active or inactive), the Custom rate and the Factor. Press Apply changes to store them.

The Currencies page of the Exponential 6 administration under Store, with an empty currency list and the New currency button

Store > Currencies (/shop/currencylist): the currency list, here still empty, with New currency. With currencies it also shows the auto rate, custom rate, factor and status, and the buttons Update auto rates, Update autoprices and Apply changes.

What a change affects

  • A new rate or factor affects auto prices only after Update autoprices.
  • An inactive currency cannot be a visitor's preferred currency. Its prices stay, and products still get auto prices in it.
  • The code identifies the currency in prices and orders. Change it only for a currency that has no prices and no orders yet.
