PayPal payments and Australian dollars

This is probably for GT as it involves a change to the core code.

In the Payment setup, PayPal currencies can be Canadian Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling, US Dollar, Yen.

PayPal also now accepts Australian Dollars, and for Australian-based sites this would be the currency of choice (I have a site in development at the moment where this applies). If possible, can AU dollars please be added to the list of currencies in the PayPal setup?

Hi,

As far as I can see, it should be as simple as opening up /admin/Links/Payment/Rermote/PayPal.pm, and finding;

Code:
    for (qw/USD CAD EUR GBP JPY/) { 
        push @currencies, $_ => Links::language('PAYMENT_CURRENCY_' . $_); 
    }

..change to;

Code:
    for (qw/USD CAD EUR GBP JPY AUD/) { 
        push @currencies, $_ => Links::language('PAYMENT_CURRENCY_' . $_); 
    }

(I'm guessing its AUD for Austalian $?)

That should do it <G>

Cheers

Thanks Andy, I'll give that a try.

There haven't been many updates lately so I thought I'd keep things moving Wink

I guess they added support for the Australian dollar after we initially added PayPal support. I've committed the addition to cvs. If anyone wants this change, but doesn't want to do it themselves, I can add it to the updates system.
