How to change the currency symbol ? 

Hello, my website is targeted at customers in West Africa, our currency symbol being" XOF ".
(I do not use the e-commerce payment features, but still need the store structure for my business.)

I was using a CSS code I found to just change the currency symbol (full tutorial here) :

.sqs-money-native:before {
   content:none !important;
}

.sqs-money-native:after {
   content:' XOF '!important;
}
 

But with the changes to the price formatting, this has stopped working (it is back to showing the "€" symbol) !

How it is :" 15 000,00 €" ---- what I want ----> "15 000 XOF"

Can someone please help me, for the moment I will try and hide the prices, but it's terrible for business.

The website is :

www.afroposters.com

We are on the commerce basic plan. (I read that some JavaScript might be required)

Thank you all very much in advance !

Can you remove the code you used to hide price? We can check easier

I just did !

Hi @paul2009, 

The updated code has worked like a charm to change the currency symbol !

Thank you very much for how fast you answered 🙂

Now I just need to find a way to remove the ",00" which doesn't apply to our currency. I had an old line of code I was using for that, but it has stopped working as well ... Any chance you could help me with that as well ? 

Anyhow, thank you very much again !

You're welcome 🙂. I've added a section to the guide called Removing the decimal fraction.

Thank you very much @paul2009 everything is good now !

I followed the instructions and now my prices are showing as NZ$

How do you want prices to show? They can show as NZ$ or $ without using any code 🙂

I want prices to show as NZ$(price) - for now at least! - but I want people to be purchasing in NZD not in Euros when they make payment.

The guide isn’t what you need. It was written for people who need to display a currency that Squarespace doesn’t support.

As Squarespace supports NZD you can simply select this currency in the Checkout settings. After doing so, you should see prices like this: $9.99.

Next, if you change your site’s language from English (New Zealand) to something like English (United Kingdom) or English (United States), the symbol will change and your prices will show as NZ$9.99 instead.

I hope this helps 🙂.

Hi everyone,

Thanks @paul2009, that code is working perfectly for me (7.1). I needed a "€ / linear meter" instead of "€". But, within the same shop, I ALSO need a "€ / squared meter" and a "€".

Do you think it is something that I can fix with specific tags calling for "linear/squared/units" tagged products? 

Thanks for your answer !

Yes, you should be able to do this with code.

Great, thank you @paul2009, but I have no idea where to place the ".product-mark.linear" into the code... I've tried to edit your code with it, but it's not working... I'm not "fluent" in scripts...

Can you please help me with this ?

Please provide a working link to the product. This allows us to take a look at the site and explain how to achieve what you require.

Wonderful !

This one for € / squared meter (tag: square)

@Coralie I have updated the original guide to explain how to set the price by the linear metre and square metre. Let me know how you get on.

A great thank you for your help @paul2009, it works perfectly well, also when combining "linear" and "squared" prices within the same shop!
