Author Topic: Price set option label uses site global currency symbol not defaultCurrency (Read 738 times)

Hi,

I used the info at http://civicrm.org/node/547 and the buildForm hook to change the currency for an event to USD (the site global settings default is UK GBP). I have done this method succesfully before for CiviContribute forms but not used it for events.

This event also has a price set and what's happening is that if you opt to display the value of the price set option, the price set option label uses the site global currency symbol ('£' on this site) instead of the symbol for the $config->defaultCurrency (which for this event should be '$').

I've tried to figure out where these labels are being set (in code and/or template files) and unfortunately am stuck trying to decipher this.

Would appreciate any help that you can offer.

Thanks.

the labels are created BEFORE the buildForm hook is called. The code is here:

CRM/Price/BAO/Field.php (in v3.1)

search for currency

not sure of how to get around this. I suspect in 3.1 and later, you should set the currency in the config hook
