currencywiki

Thank you, erikaside, for your positive review! We’re thrilled to hear that the plugin has been working perfectly for you and that you find it easy to customize.

Thank you for considering our currency converter plugin. I’m happy to help clarify its capabilities for you. Our plugin is designed to provide currency conversion functionality within your website, allowing users to convert currencies without leaving your site.

Regarding your specific requirements, displaying USD and South African ZAR conversions is absolutely possible with our plugin. Users will be able to convert between these two currencies using the converter widget on your website.

As for payment options, our plugin primarily focuses on currency conversion rather than payment processing. While it doesn’t directly integrate with PayPal or Payfast for payment transactions, you can still incorporate these payment gateways separately on your website. Once the currency conversion is completed, users can then proceed to make payments through the respective payment gateways you have integrated.

In summary, our plugin will enable you to showcase currency conversion functionality on your website, allowing users to convert between USD and South African ZAR. However, you would need to set up PayPal and Payfast separately to handle the payment transactions.

If you have any further questions or need additional information, please feel free to ask.

Hello Stephane! Unfortunately, we don’t have that feature available yet. As far as integration, the currency conversion widget is being displayed via iFrame so at this moment it would not be possible for you to integrate commission.

Correct, the fix for PHP8 is the same version just not supported or optimized.

Unfortunately, I’m not sure what’s going on since we can’t replicate this issue on our end.

Could be server configuration issues and maybe try a different hosting company.

If you are running PHP8 that could be an issue, the current plugin supports up-to PHP7

Here is a quick fix for PHP8 the only problem, it is not optimized or supported at the moment, and you will need to manually install it by downloading it from here https://currencyconverter.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/currency-converter-widget-php8.zip

Are you using any type of redirect plugin or via htaccess? Something is blocking. I’d test the following, disable all other plugins that you have, leave the Currency Converter Widget ON and see if that works. Also, are you using PHP7 or PHP8?

Unfortunately, this quick-fix plugin for PHP8 is not fully supported or optimized yet, so it might cause some issues, as you’ve mentioned.

Appreciate your feedback!

I just checked your website, the shortcode you are using now will not work with 3.0.2

Try this one, follow the link and copy the shortcode from there https://codepen.io/currencywiki/pen/JjvvwBO

Hi there,

Thank you for using the plugin!

Sometimes this could be an issue with the theme you are using, are you using the same exact theme or something different? Sometimes certain plugins create conflict so try to disable some of them and see if it works. Example theme I use for the demo site as you can see shortcodes work ok even after WP core update https://www.currencyconverterplugin.com/shortcode-demo-setup-instructions/

Best,

Admin

Best, Admin

Can you please test this updated version plugin, let me know if it works with PHP8 before I upload it into the repository https://file.io/3U14euJgLzQs

We should have a new version soon, there is a compatibility issue with PHP8

Thank you for the error log. Yes, at the moment it’s not compatible with PHP8 but we’ll get that updated soon.

It sounds like when you copy code from here, and it changes from prime to quote. Anyways, I’ll test again using Elementor, this might take time, but we’ll try to get this fixed.
