WooCommerce Currency Switcher

    Hi I just launched my site. Thought I had Booster Multi Currency Switcher up and running. Because it’s geolocation driven, I can only see it function in CAD currency, which is set as default. Have since been informed by USA customers that pricing isn’t converting. Looked into it some more, and it seems the problem was that I hadn’t activated a drop down. As far as I can tell I can only do so in a Sidebar, which messes up my home page layout. I am not utilizing the sidebar for any other purpose, so everything below the currency switcher becomes wasted real estate. Three questions: 1) Can the drop down be installed anywhere else? 2) How do I activate the flags? (Currency by country is enabled, but still no flags) 3) Where do I deactivate geolocation so I can test in all currencies?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi, I really need an answer on this. I have USA customers who are waiting for me to get the currency exchanger working. Could someone please respond?

    Hi Mariyanna,

    You can add country switcher anywhere on your page using a shortcode [wcj_country_select_drop_down_list]. It will show up anywhere where you write it.

    To add flags you should go to the “Prices and Currencies by Country” module settings and enable “Add Countries Flags Images to Select Drop-Down Box” option.

    On the same page you can disable geolocating by changing “Customer Country Detection Method” option value.

    Please make sure that your customers use the country switcher ([wcj_country_select_drop_down_list] shortcode or “Booster: Country Switcher” widget) and not the currency switcher as they are two separate modules. This may be a primary cause for the issues you have been experiencing.

    Thanks RokasJ, I was able to install the plugin successfully, and it seems to work! But I had better luck with the currency switcher than a country switcher.

    Unfortunately if you want to use currency switcher you would have to disable currency by country module because they cannot be used both at the same time. Currency switcher also doesn’t allow using flags.
