Fills my pages with $0.00 every other word

    Hi,
    I tried your plugin but found that as soon as I activated it and refreshed my page, it fills my pages with junk. Also, all the formating – titles, bold etc goes. An example of what my page content looks like:

    <$0.00h1$0.00>$0.00The $0.00confidence $0.00you $0.00need $0.00to $0.00build $0.00a $0.00flourishing $0.00business $0.00doing $0.00the $0.00work $0.00you $0.00love,$0.00 $0.00is $0.00waiting $0.00to $0.00take $0.00root.$0.00<$0.00/$0.00h1$0.00>$0.00 $0.00<$0.00p>$0.00<$0.00strong>$0.00If $0.00you $0.00want $0.00to $0.00make $0.00a $0.00difference $0.00through $0.00your $0.00work,$0.00 $0.00yet $0.00feel:$0.00<$0.00/$0.00strong>$0.00<$0.00/$0.00p>$0.00 $0.00<$0.00ul>$0.00 $0.00<$0.00li>$0.00<$0.00em>$0.00held $0.00back<$0.00/$0.00em>$0.00 $0.00by $0.00lack $0.00of $0.00confidence<$0.00/$0.00li>$0.00

    When I deactivate it – back to normal.
    The menu bar and sidebar text is unaffected, as is the text in the widgets at the bottom of the screen. I guess it may be a conflict with the theme – I am using the Weaver II Pro theme.

    Hi,

    Thanks for reporting this problem. I’ll be looking into this tonight and over the weekend.

    Could you let me know whether you went to the settings page (in the Admin section of your site: Settings->LocalMoney) and entered all the information it asks for as your message doesn’t make this clear.

    I don’t think it’s a problem with your theme as the plugin only acts on the raw post content. Anyway if you tell me the answer to the above question I’ll see what I can do about it.

    Hi thanks for responding. I hadn’t completed the settings section. I’ve now done this and the problem has gone away. However, I’m now seeing 2 other problems:

    1. My base currency is set as GBP and I am in the UK, however when I look at my pages, currencies are showing in dollars (I assume USD). I’m seeing this whether logged into wordpress or not.
    2. Not all instances are converting, some are showing as $0.00

    The site isn’t yet live, so I’ll leave the plugin active so you can see what I mean – for example, scroll down to near the bottom of this page, there are prices in a table near the end of the page:

    OK, I’ve made some changes which have resolved some issues which I was able to reproduce on my own sites. Some more questions:

    1. In the page link that you gave me above in the table at the bottom of the screen the $0.00 bug has a strange character in front of it which in Firefox on Mac just renders as a black diamond with a question mark. Can you tell me what this is as it might be either produced by the bug or a special character that you have placed there which is confusing the plugin.
    2. What ISP do you use. It seems strange that the plugin knows that I am in the UK (I use Virgin Media) but thinks you are in the US so I’m wondering whether you are using a global service like AOL.
    3. I’d like to send you the updated plugin without doing a general update yet so could you contact me at [email protected] so that I can send you the update. If you’re happy I will do a public upgrade.
    4. Finally, can you tell me what values should be in the table cells where the converted value is $0.00.

    Thanks

    Hi again,

    in answer to your questions:
    1. There is no special character there, but I also see it rendered on the page in Firefox and IE8, both on XP. Here is what the two lines that have the special characters look like in the code:

    <td> ￡499 one-off payment</td>
    <td> ￡119/ month</td>

    The line that doesn’t have the strange character looks like this:
    <td>￡321/ quarter</td>

    The only obvious thing is the space before the pound sign, but there are spaces before the pound sign elsewhere on this page and they convert fine. I’ve also looked all over my site and all of the other prices seem to convert ok. The only obvious difference with these two is that they are in a table and I’m using rowspan on the previous cell to get the look I want.

    2. I am using my broadband at home and am with Plusnet.

    3. I will contact you directly about the updated plugin

    4. See answer to 1.

    Thanks.
