Support multiple currencies

BWPanda - October 3, 2008 - 05:43

I have a site that lists package holidays and their prices. I'd like to support multiple currencies, so users can view prices in their own currency.
Is there a module that will let me do this, keeping in mind that I'm not selling packages, merely listing them (i.e. I'm not using any e-commerce modules)?

BTW, I'm running Drupal 6.
Thanks!

There seems to be a few options... typing "currency" into the "Search downloads" box will locate them pretty easily.

Yes, I did try that, but none of the modules I found seemed to do what I wanted...

CCK Currency: Provides a drop-down list of currencies, but from what I understand, doesn't do anything past that (like change existing prices based on selected currency)
Money CCK field: Provides a field to enter an amount into and select the currency, but I'm looking to automatically convert the price, not have to enter multiple prices when creating a node...
Currency Exchange: Simply provides an exchange where users can get different currencies for amounts they enter, not automatic.

I don't know enough about module development to combine these to get the functionality I want - I was hoping there was a module (like the locale/content translation module(s)) that automatically converted prices to one of the enabled currencies...

ah ok... unfortunately, I

ah ok... unfortunately, I don't know of anything like that. And I'm not sure how that would work since conversion rates change so frequently.

I did see http://www.white-hat-web-design.co.uk/articles/php-currency-conversion.php which may be adaptable since it's written in php.

Another option-- the maintainer of currency exchange is available for paid customizations.
