Currency Format

To make the templates a bit easier to use, TypoScript can be used to configure the format specifications for the price output. These TypoScript specifications are then used in the <cart:format.currency> ViewHelper.

EXT:cart/Configuration/TypoScript/constants.typoscript

plugin.tx_cart {
    settings {
        format {
            currency {
                currencySign       = &euro;
                decimalSeparator   = ,
                thousandsSeparator = .
                prependCurrency    = false
                separateCurrency   = true
                decimals           = 2
            }
        }
    }
}

Currency Translation

If you want to allow the user to display the prices in a different currency in the store, you can configure this via TypoScript.

Note

At the moment there is no automatism to update the factor and adjust it to a current value. With a scheduler task, it should be possible to connect a corresponding service quite quickly.

EXT:cart/Configuration/TypoScript/setup.typoscript

plugin.tx_cart {
    settings {
        currencies {
            preset = 1
            options {
                1 {
                    code = EUR
                    sign = €
                    translation = 1.00
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
