Before reading this help file you may want to check this video. It explains how to manage the property and transactions currency and may be easier to understand. Watch Video on Youtube

Note: The theme has 1 main currency and 1 price per property only. There is no option to have different prices for each property (like price in Euro and price in USD).

Each price will be originally displayed using the main currency you set for the Currency symbol option.

How to set Multi Currency Widget

If you want to use the multi-currency feature, first add a default currency in the admin options.

Add the new currency you can also add currency value.

This value will be used to transform the price from the main currency in this new currency.

For ex 1 EUR = 0.73 x 1 GBR . (0.73 is the GBR).

Auto-exchange currency convertor

For the currency value to change automatically you must set all these 3 settings correctly:

  1. You must enable Enable auto loading of exchange rates from free.currencyconverterapi.com (1 time per day)? AND add your Currencyconverterapi.com Api Key
  2. Get the free api key from here https://free.currencyconverterapi.com/free-api-key and add it in Theme Options
  3. Set the Currency Code and Label according to Internation Standards http://www.xe.com/iso4217.php
Also, since the currencies values can vary from day to day, we create a cron job that runs 1 time per day and takes the financial data from Currencyconverterapi to auto-fill these value forms in Theme Options.

Add the Widget to widget area

For multi-currency we use a widget with dropdowns – https://help.wpresidence.net/article/multi-currency-how-is-working/ When a user changes the currency from the dropdown widget, we read the currency value you just set and convert the original price.

Multi Currency Doesn’t sync with Auto Exchange API

If you cannot make the Multi-Currency sync with the Auto Exchange API enabled

Contact hosting and ask them to Activate the fopen function 

Then save the currencies settings again and should solve the problem.
