Price not showing in Paypal

[Digit]

I have read every thread I could find on this issue but am not having any luck.

I have set up 2 countries (New Zealand and Australia) with their respective currencies in Zen Cart.

I have deleted every other country.

I have set the default currency to NZD.

I have set the following in english.php
// if USE_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE_CURRENCY is true, use the following currency, instead of the applications default currency (used when changing language)
define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'NZD');

I have set Configuration|My Store|Switch To Default Language Currency = True

I have emptied internet cache and tried testing paypal

When I check out in Paypal the amount is not being displayed.

This is the one single problem stopping me from going into business with a zen cart - please help

1. Which version of Zen Cart ?
2. Which PayPal module are you using in Zen Cart ?

v1.3.6 [2007-01-06 04:51:33] (Fresh Installation)

PayPal IPN

Do your prices display properly everywhere "except" during checkout? Or do you see 0.00 instead of the real price?
What's the URL where this can be seen in action?

Hi Dr Byte - thank you for helping.

www.nzhunter.com is the link - there are test widgets in there that can be used for testing purposes.

I have found that when I create a NZ (New Zealand) user and use NZ currency that zencart is not compatible with paypal. In the paypal screen I get a single item listed = 0 and total = 0 USD.

When I create and use an Australian user using Australian Currency everything works fine.

I have spent considerable time setting this up only to find zen cart and paypal arent compatible for my target market.

Aha ... AUD is naturally supported by PayPal.
The PayPal IPN module converts non-supported currencies to USD, which, since you don't have USD defined as a currency, ultimately ends up being 0.
The module supports CAD, EUR, GBP, JPY, USD, AUD.

If you wish to attempt to override that, you can try the following edit:
/includes/modules/payment/paypal.php
approx line 169:

    if (!in_array($my_currency, array('CAD', 'EUR', 'GBP', 'JPY', 'USD', 'AUD'))) {

you could replace that line with this:

    if (!in_array($my_currency, array('CAD', 'EUR', 'GBP', 'JPY', 'USD', 'AUD', 'CHF', 'CZK', 'DKK', 'HKD', 'HUF', 'NOK', 'NZD', 'PLN', 'SEK', 'SGD', 'THB'))) {

You'll want to do the same in /includes/modules/payment/paypal/paypal_functions.php around line 74


BTW - nice site.

Thankyou - that worked perfectly.
