This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client needed to display the currency code as "AED" in English and "د.إ" in Arabic on their WooCommerce website.
Solution:
We recommended using the
wpml_current_language
filter hook to determine the current language and then display the appropriate currency code. Here is a step-by-step guide:
1. Add a filter to the
woocommerce_currency_symbol
.
2. Use the
wpml_current_language
filter to get the current language.
3. Depending on the language, set the currency symbol to "AED" for English or "د.إ" for Arabic.
Here is the example code:
add_filter('woocommerce_currency_symbol', 'change_existing_currency_symbol', 10, 2); function change_existing_currency_symbol( $currency_symbol, $currency ) { $my_current_lang = apply_filters( 'wpml_current_language', NULL ); switch( $currency ) { case 'AED': if( $my_current_lang == 'en' ) { $currency_symbol = 'AED'; } else{ $currency_symbol = 'د.إ'; } break; } return $currency_symbol; }
We also informed the client that custom code assistance is beyond the scope of WPML support and suggested contacting one of our certified partners if they need further help with the implementation.
