Prices Convert wrapper

  1. If you need to Override a conversion
    or
  2. If have de-selected the Auto detect prices setting for the page or account

If one of those 2 situations does apply for your site then - Where ever you have a price on your page that you want converted to the visitors home currency, add the Dynamic Converter convert wrapper.

Convert wrapper example:

<span id="convert" amount="1.20">$1ยท20</span>
$1.20
Please note the new amount attribute of the span. This is required to inform our script what the base price is. You also include this in the span just incase the service is interrupted.
