[#8034] CB-Subs: How to get the exchange rates for a multi currency basket

3 years 9 months ago - 3 years 9 months ago #318858 by erichburkhard
I wanted to set up a multi currency basket for my website. In order to do this I added the necessary currency codes here:



When the user navigates to the basket it looks like this (which is correct so far):



The problem is now the following: If the user clicks (eg.) on the currency code 'ARS' the system does not calculate & show the exchange rate for 'ARS'. After a short analysis I found out that the reason for this is that not all currency exchange rates are stored in the CBSubs internal currency list:



I tried to add a row to this list (for 'ARS') in order to enable the system to fetch the corresponding exchange rate, but there is no possibility to add a row.....

What can I do now? (PS: 'ARS' is just an example. There are also other exchange rates which are not part of this list)

regards

Was able to confirm you're able to select currencies that don't have currency exchange rates being pulled.

At this time there's no functionality for manually inputting a currency exchange rate. You'd have to do that in the _cbsubs_currencies database table, but if the currency isn't there then it has no automated exchange rate data.
