FIXING ROUNDING UP PRICES PROBLEM IN OSCOMMERCE DEFAULT CURRENCY
Hello All,
There is no other excuse for not blogging daily these days other than laziness. I have loads of useful articles to publish but i am sure i would pick up in the coming days.
Now lets get down to business;
Problem: After installing Oscommerce and selecting your default currency, you might find that the prices are rounded up to the nearest highest figure.
ie. if you set item price to £2.99, it rounds up to £3.00. Now, we do not want our customers to see our items as being too expensive.
Solution: Go to your admin > then go to Localization > then click on the default currency > click on edit > set the parameter “Decimal Places : 2″, make sure it is set to 2 decimal places. You can use this to adjust the other currencies also.
Please note that this applies to Oscommerce2 and may be different in Oscommerce3.
Hope this helps out!
