Currency depending on category? was created by Michael Gasperl
Dear Event Booking Users!
The multiple language support is great, but with multiple languages there also come multiple currencies. We need € and au$ at our site. Is it possible to use currencies depending on the category or define the currency for each event?

Thanks for your help!
Michael

Hi Michael

Unfortunately, right now Event Booking doesn't support multiple currencies option. The currency must be the same for all events in the system.

Tuan

Hi. Has this been updated? I have events booking in 4 different countries and need at least 2 currencies, £ and €. Any solution? Please?

Hi

If I remember correctly, this feature was added from version 1.4.5 of Events Booking. So in this case, you can simply download and upgrade to latest version (1.5.2). After that, edit event, look at Advances settings tab, you will be able to choose the currency for your event .

Tuan

I am using it in Joomla 1.5, because of language translations that are not available in the more recent versions of Joomla. But it seems that you only have Events Booking 1.4.5 for that, not 1.5.2. Will you fix this problem for Joomla 1.5 users?

Hi

First of all, this is a NEW FEATURE, it is not a BUG, so there will be NO FIX. However, the feature you are asking for is available in version 1.4.5 , so feel free to upgrade it to your site to use that feature .

Sorry for my poor English before (using “ the word fix”).

I have version 1.4.5 and I created an event, changed under Advanced to €. When people choose to pay with card (WorldPay) the payment converts to £. Same amount but on the last window, registration window in Events Booking ... to WorldPay, it changes to £. Technical department of WorldPay say the payment is set in GBP when it reaches them, but I carefully set it in Advanced to €. Do you know how I can change that so it pays in €? Thank you.

Hi

That feature was designed for Paypal payment gateway only, I didn't know that you are using Worldpay. In this case, please get this file, unzip it and upload the file to components/com_eventbooking/payments folder. After that, it should work as expected .

Great. Why don't you help me by giving Events Booking a 5 stars rating and a nice review at extensions.joomla.org/extensions/calenda...s-registration/13701 to support my development :).
