Advanced Settings
This is the fourth configuration tab. The image below shows the different sub-options available in this area:
(1). Advances Settings: This tab has a variety of options to toggle in order to determine what's going on behind the front-end.
(2). Fixed Product Price for Each Curency: This is the toggle icon that allows you to enable/disable set up product price for Each Curency.
(3). Update Exchange Rate Automatically: This is the toggle icon that allows you to enable/disable automatic foreign exchange rate update.
- Disabled (Manual update): This means the current exchange rate will be updated once you click on the Sync icon in Manage Currency tab.
Manually update foreign exchange rate in YayCurrency
- Enabled (Automatic update): This means the current exchange rate will be instantly retrieved from the YayCurrency database.
Automatically update foreign exchange rate in YayCurrency
(4). Duration Dropdown: This is a dropdown that will allow you to select and enter the interval in minutes, hours, or days that the automatic update of exchange rates should run.
Based on this interval, the foreign exchange rates are periodically saved to the YayCurrency database using Yahoo Finance API. And when the customer switches currency on your store, the live exchange rate is retrieved right from YayCurrency database. This helps make sure the currency converter won't slow down your website.
(5). Toggle Icon: This is a dropdown that will allow you to set whether or not the currency should be automatically determined and displayed based on the visitor's country.
(6). Currency: This column lists all the activated currencies.
(7). Countries: This column will allow you to select specific countries that you want a specific currency to display for.
(8). Display Notice: If you check this box, then your product page will show a defined notice to your customers informing them about their country and the currency they would get served with.
This can be defined using the available field shortcodes;
%current-country% %current-currency% %current-currency-symbol%
In order to display this notice anywhere else on your website, you can also use this general shortcode at locations where shortcodes are recognized on your site. We have seen some users add this to a nice welcome pop-up on their site:
[yaycurrency-country-currency-notice][yaycurrency-flag]---> Current Country flag (if you want to change width, height--> add like this [yaycurrency-flag width="100px" height="100px"] otherwise leave it as default and apply 40px)[yaycurrency-country]---> Current Country name[yaycurrency-currency]---> Current Currency name[yaycurrency-symbol]---> Current Symbol
