How do i add rate field?

Go to your patch/upgrade in the admin section and in the bottom box type in:
Code:
ALTER TABLE `xcart_currencies` ADD `rate` double NOT NULL default '0'

Also it works on 4.1.9 as well.

And the admin/configuration.php code that puts the rate into the xcart_currencies using the command UPDATE xcart_currencies SET rate='$val' WHERE code='$code' does not work with the euro (as per the instructions) as the code for euro is EUR not euro.

So when you modify the table for xcart_config and you want the Euro currency you must use:

Code:
INSERT INTO `xcart_config` VALUES ('currency_rate_EUR', 'Rate for the Euro', '1.35572', 'Multiple_Currency', 0, 'numeric', '1.0', '');

Now if you use the above insert code, please go into your admin section and change the currency value ('1.35572') and save it, then change it back and save it so that the configuration.php script updates the xcart_currencies, then you will find this new update in the drop down box on your web site.

The code only looks for rates defined in the xcart_currencies table > 0 and by inserting the currency conversion value like the above code the configuration.php file has not been run to update the xcart_currencies rate value, so it wont show on your web site.

Also make sure that the currency symbol is only 3 characters long, like USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, HKD, TND etc.

Anyway you can see a working copy at http://www.elmaallem.com
