xtech,
looks like I found your thread. Can you point us to a page where you want to display the currency symbol and it is not currently displaying? Give us all the info you possibly can.

Hi Mike,

I have a site http://buywink.com/st/home.php (Not live).Here My primary currency is INR and secondary currency is USD.

I want to display (For ex-Our price: INR495.00) Instead of INR I want to show indian currency image in each price field either in invoice or in market price or in our price options.

That is I want to show indian currency image in place of INR.

How to achieve that?

I want your help.

Re: Currency image instead of INR
 

xtech, I may be overlooking something obvious, I tried to visit your page to see how the currency is currently displayed, and I could not see it anywhere. The menus appear to be unfinished or broken.

I assume you may already know about Settings > General Settings > General Parameters (third section on General Settings page) Primary currency symbol

What do you have set there?

Hi Mike,

Another problem in cart functionality.If I add minicart in header and add product to cart then though the product is added to cart but it is displaying cart is empty you can test it in my site.But after page refresh the different color of the bag is coming and cart is empty is removed.

I have attached a screenshot to see the exact problem-

What is the issue? Kindly help me...

Re: Currency image instead of INR
 

XC uses ajax to update minicart. When you moved it to header you probably broke the minicart css style classes originaly used which will result in ajax not being able to update minicart. You should keep the minicart structure intacked with its original styles

Have you tried using "& #8377;" (no spaces) for the currency symbol?

₹.02

Where to add?

Re: Currency image instead of INR
 

totaltec already told you how to solve this issue. you should read the manual about primary and alternative currency to understand how to set the symbols and where. cherie offered you the symbol, just use it.

"I assume you may already know about Settings > General Settings > General Parameters (third section on General Settings page) Primary currency symbol

What do you have set there?"

about mini-cart module. you made changes in your template. Just giving you one, when I push Add Cart button nothing happening. But the script adds the product to cart. Original behavior with that animated gif, message Added over the button you should leave it as it was. Assume you are a customer push the button and no pop-up window, no message. You also changed the mini cart template to show information about products inside when not collapsed. As an advice all changes I make inside the script I write them in a file, with date and comments I did in file for easy finding. If something is going wrong I know how to undo the changes. Working with out of box shopping carts you must have a discipline in changes and knowing everything any moment.

totaltec (mike white) has a great video tutorial about changing templates. follow his advice not altering common_files. personally I created one without using anything from common_files, just made a clone of the whole directory and used it separately. mike explains this in his tutorial. in this way you will protect the original files, when a problem appears you will know where to search

you can edit directly inside the template using that symbol or using your own image (html tag <img />.

Hi am 2003,
In which tpl file and where for Artistictune business theme in 4.4.2 pro?

Re: Currency image instead of INR
 

Use [Webmaster Mode] to find the right template file. This tool should become your best friend working with XC.

Normally the files should be located in skin/common_files.

When I put the code in the Primary Currency Symbol box in General Settings (without spaces) it works fine.

Hi Cherie,

After adding this code it displays this-

It displays fine on a Mac. Looks like you'll need to change the font to one that supports those unicode characters on Windows, such as Arial Unicode MS:

Re: Currency image instead of INR
 

I believe that Cherie is suggesting that you change the font.
Try a different font like Arial.

Hi Mike,
Cannot get any Indian Currency Symbol.How to get?Thanks..

Re: Currency image instead of INR
 

@xtech - you have a custom work, for sure something happened with your DB or files.

1) Could you use Webmaster Mode and check what file is loaded for primary currency? Moving your mouse pointer in Debug window over template file names you will see a border surrounding your currency. Once you find the right file upload it here. I uploaded for you currency.tpl from original. Backup your file in [XC_Dir]/skin/common_files and replace with this one. Clear cache and reload your front-end.

2) Your currency symbol and format is stored inside the DB in [xcart_config] table: currency_symbol and currency_format fields. Check values for them. For example in my case currency_format = $x and currency_symbol = $.

3) Maybe you could have a problem with characters type like UTF-8? You are Indian, I am not sure it could be this, but who knows. Seeing your source code here is the type character you set:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
