  • I am interested in the answer to this too.

    We haven’t dealt with this Bulk Discount plugin before. Based on an educated guess, we reckon that such plugin would have to be updated to become multi-currency aware and interact with the currency conversion functions when fixed discounts are used (percentage discounts could work out of the box, as they are not dependent on the currency).

    In its simplest form, an integration with the Currency Switcher boils down to passing a discount value to the currency conversion function. That is, changing the logic from this:

    1. Load the discount value from the database, which is in shop’s base currency.
    2. Apply the discount.

    To this:

    1. Load the discount value from the database, which is in shop’s base currency.
    2. Pass the discount to the currency conversion function.
    3. Apply the discount.

    A more advanced and flexible integration would allow to enter discounts in multiple currencies, such as 100 USD, 95 EUR, 80 GBP, and apply that discount value depending on the active currency. Implementing this feature would take a bit more work, as the user interface of the Bulk Discounts plugin would have to be changed as well.

    The above changes would have to be applied to the Bulk Discount plugin itself. We can provide the author with guidance and examples to speed up the process.
