This plugin converts a currency using front-end JavaScript.

The front-end part of this plugin is Javascript based to convert existing values in the website. A dropdown menu is generated during the parsing of your template using a filter action.

All elements defined in the admin part will be updates. For example:
When defined that all elements with the ‘price’ class must be updated, you should add a span of div with the class ‘price’ around the class.

In the admin part an exchange rate API can be linked to pre-fill your current currencies.
A free exchange rate API is for example: http://apilayer.net

If you wish to define the origin of the currency you need to subscribe to: https://currencylayer.com. Whiteout this subscription the plugin uses USD as a origin currency, so this is optional.

  1. Download the plugin.
  2. Activate the plugin.
