Hi Pablo,
While doing some testing with people around the world rather than with VPN, we are noticing that in some scenarios where EUR is the designated currency, we are getting a USD storefront that then switches to EUR, when the checkout is reached. Below you can find our GeoIP function in functions.php:
// Force Currency by IP (WOOCS GeoIP settings)
add_action('init', 'change_default_currency');
function change_default_currency() {
$pd = WC_Geolocation::geolocate_ip();
global $WOOCS;
if (isset($pd['country']) AND ! empty($pd['country'])) {
if ('AR' == $pd['country']) {
$WOOCS->set_currency('ARS');
}
elseif ('EU' == $pd['country']) {
$WOOCS->set_currency('EUR');
}
else {
$WOOCS->set_currency('USD');
}
}
}
Here's a UK user video for reference!
Any idea on why this could be happening? The only thing I can think of is that we are using 'EU' (specific to the European Union) to specify EUR and maybe it's conflicting onload vs having a list of countries there (?). Attaching access in the private data.
Thanks man!
Hello
We do not support custom code.
The only thing I can think of is that we are using 'EU' - YES! You can do a simple test var_dump($pd['country']); - You will see what values this variable returns.
So use "FR","ES","IT".....
Hi Pablo,
I reinforced this by the suggested approach and it's working, thank you.
Hello
