General

In the General tab, you can set up the main features of CURCY

  1. Enable: Enable/Disable the plugin
  2. Fixed Price: Activate the “Fixed Price” function to control product prices independently of exchange rates, adding and using your product prices in each currency.
    After enabling this option, follow the steps in this documentation, as well as the note while using “Fixed price”
  3. Don’t use exchange rate: This option makes the price not automatically converted to the exchange rate, even if the fixed price in some currencies is empty.
  4. Use SESSION: By default, CURCY marks the selected currency, using cookies, on the browser. Activating this option will let the plugin save this information on the server.
  5. Switch Currency by JS: Enable it to make currency be changed, but it does not use URL. It removes the query string at the end of the URL after changing currency. It is good for SEO.
  6. Use Cache plugin: Enable this option when you are using any cache plugin on your site to remove the negative impacts of the Cache plugin on Currencies changing/converting on your WooCommerce.
    • AJAX: Sends a request to the server to get the correct price in a particular currency, to overwrite the cached price. Using this option will cause a bit of delay before showing the correct price. It has to work that way to get the correct currency when your site is cached
      • Reload filter price: Enable this option to reset the price filter when loading via AJAX
    • JSON: Enabling this option to directly convert the price to all other currencies, and hide the conversion in HTML. Then CURCY detects the cookie currency, looks for the JSON string to see what the currency code is, and overwrites it.
  7. Loading price mask: When you use “Override by AJAX” for cache, there’s a while before the correct price is shown. This option adds a “mask” to cover the cached price for the delay
  8. Bot currency: Enable this if you are using a caching plugin and currency does not remain after being switched by customers in the frontend
  9. Currency option:
    • Default Currency: The currency your store will be priced in.
    • Hidden: This option allows you to hide some currencies that you don’t want to appear on the front end. By selecting Yes, you will hide that currency on the front end.
    • Currency: Select currencies here
    • Position: Select the position for the currency symbol.
    • Rate + exchange fee: Rate is the global exchange rate between the default currency and the others. The value of the Rate + Exchange fee can be added in fixed/percentage value. It’s the total value of the exchange rate and the exchange fee added to the product price when users switch currencies.
    • Number of decimals: Choose the number of digits to appear after the decimal separator.
    • Custom symbol: This option allows you to enter a custom symbol for each currency. For example, the American dollar can be displayed as $, USD, $ US…
    • Thousand separator: This option allows you to specify whether you want to use a comma or a dot to separate thousands when displaying numerical values. For example, with the comma option selected, a number like 1,000 would be formatted as 1,000, while with the dot option, it would be formatted as 1.000.
    • Decimal separation: This option allows you to define the symbol used to separate decimal values when displaying numerical figures. You can choose between a comma or a dot to indicate the decimal point. For instance, with the comma option selected, a decimal value like 3.14 might be formatted as 3,14, while with the dot option, it would be displayed as 3.14.
    • Action: Allow you to update the exchange rate of a specific currency, or remove that currency
  10. Update All Rates: Update the exchange rates of all your currencies.
  11. Add Currency: This button will duplicate your last currency, then you back to option 8-Currency to select a new currency.
  12. Add All Currencies: Add all currencies to your settings.
  13. Remove All Currencies: Remove all existing currencies.
