Formating Currency

Hi gang,

I want to be able to format the currency prices so they dont show any decimal placing:

i.e. display "$150" instead of "$150.00"

I've been looking at the Math functions and the currency.tpl file
but still no joy.

Is there a simple fix for this?

I've not tried this, but if it was me, I would be looking at changing the database perhaps.

In the pricing table, you have a price field, which has a type of decimal(12,2); if you changed this to remove the 2, you would then not have any decimal points.

I would do this via phpmyadmin myself, suggest backing it up first though!

Not good for tax reasons though...government doesn't like things rounded off :)

no doubt worth a look at currency.tpl too

Yep - a very simply fix in the end...

Within the currency.tpl file -
I just removed the

|formatprice:",":"."

from

Code:

{$config.General.currency_symbol}{$value|abs_value|formatprice:",":"."}

That done the trick
