WordPress 6.7 has introduced a new issue that impact translations, please update WooCommerce and WPML to the latest versions before you report issues. More about this here - https://wpml.org/errata/php-error-wp-6-7-notice-function-_load_textdomain_just_in_time-was-called/
Background of the issue:
I am developing a site and need to add a custom currency or set different prices for different languages using the same currency.
Symptoms:
I searched for documentation but did not find anything related to adding a custom currency or setting different prices for different languages.
Questions:
How can I add a custom currency in WPML?
How can I set different prices for different languages using the same currency in WPML?
1) This is not something related to WPML or can be done by WPML since the currency is taken from Wocommerce. You should add custom currency to Wocommerce and then can used it in WPML / WCML also.
I advise checking Wocommerce developer documentation for further info on this, for example:
2) You can not set different prices for different languages using the same currency in WPML. One language is a translation of another, so content and prices should be the same if they are translation, or created separately as a new product/content.
Hi,
i now use the multi currency plugin and it let me add currencies. See screenshot screen1.
Is it possible to add a Cusrom currency there? Because there is also Solana or Bitcoin... I just need my own currency then i can setup all myself.
With the Multi currency plugin from wpml i can then set a different price per currency... so my problem would be solved.. see screen2
it is not possible, as I have informed you above, the currency is not coming from WPML, you need to add custom currency to Wocommerce, then you can use it also for 2nd currency. I advise checking shared WC docs or checking with Wocommerce support if you need further help with adding custom currencies to your Wocommerce shop.
Yes, you can set different prices per currency manually.
