Hi All,

I've been struggling with this for a few days and cannot figure out the solution.

I found this thread - Price Brackets - and I did the steps mentioned there, and went into the file

skin/common_files/customer/main/alter_currency_value.tpl

i also, did it in this file too

common_files_client/customer/main/alter_currency_value.tpl

and then i edited it so the ( and ) were like <!-- ( --> and <!-- ) -->

but the price is still showing up with brackets.

any ideas?

thanks,
matt

First - comment it out by using smarty comments {* *}, not html comments
Second - you may need to run yourdomain/cleanup.php to see the changes

Hey Steve,

Thanks for the reply. I did what you suggested but it's still not working.

Do i have to edit the file in common_files_client as well?

I ran the cleanup and refreshed the product page, but I am still seeing the ( ) around the secondary price.

thanks!
matt

You need to make the change in the file under the skin you are using

[hlorenzo]

Hm. Okay, I copied the file

cp skin/common_files/customer/main/alter_currency_value.tpl skin/MYTHEME/customer/main/

and then ran cleanup.php

but still see the brackets.

complete file is;

{*
$Id: alter_currency_value.tpl,v 1.1.2.1 2010/12/15 11:57:05 aim Exp $
vim: set ts=2 sw=2 sts=2 et:
*}
{*
Use {alter_currency value=..} smarty function for maximal performance
*}
{strip}

{if $alter_currency_value eq ""}
  {assign var="alter_currency_value" value="0"}
{/if}

{if $config.General.alter_currency_symbol ne ""}

{* (  *}

  {if $plain_text_message eq ""}
    <span class="nowrap">
  {/if}

  {alt_currency value=$alter_currency_value rate=$config.General.alter_currency_rate assign="cf_value" display_sign=$display_sign}

  {assign var="cf_value" value=$cf_value|abs_value|formatprice}

  {if $tag_id ne "" and $plain_text_message eq ""}
    {assign var="cf_value" value="<span id=\"`$tag_id`\">`$cf_value`</span>"}
  {/if}

  {$config.General.alter_currency_format|replace:"x":$cf_value|replace:"$":$config.General.alter_currency_symbol}

  {if $plain_text_message eq ""}
    </span>
  {/if}

 {* ) *}

{/if}

{/strip}

Then maybe you are not modifying the correct file. Use the webmaster to find out which file exactly to modify

[hlorenzo]

Thanks, I had already tried that but didn't help.

I did however find it with hours and hours of sleuthing.

It's in this file.

include/templater/plugins/function.alter_currency.php

I just changed the $result = "("; to blank, and same for the end $result too. and done. !!

thanks for the help! hope this helps someone else on 4.4.x

[cflsystems]

This has to be new in 4.4.x, it was the template file before. They started hard coding in php files so much code lately... Not good

[ADDISON]

Maybe they have a strong reason putting the brackets inside of a php file. In the past, I did not see the brackets inside the tpl file too. This could be a reason. Anyway, the script can be changed, and the brackets can be replaced easy directly in Admin. If empty no brackets, just a text input box.
