Geoplugin Currency Shortcode

Description

Usage:
[currency]800[/currency]
[currency base=”USD”]2000[/currency]

Only base=”XXX” is supported, where XXX is the three-letter currency code (GBP, USD, EUR etc.)
This plugin has GBP as the default base currency. If you want a different default base currency or output format, fork the plugin.

The ~ character is included in the output to indicate that it is only an approximate conversion, as the geoplugin.net rates will be different to the rates you might actually use.

Screenshots

Installation

  1. Unzip and upload geoplugin-currency-shortcode folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

FAQ

Yes, amend the plugin code. For such a simple plugin, it’s unlikely I’ll be adding a settings page.

Very useful little plugin, I use it to display hotel prices in the currency of the country where the hotel is in - and in the country where the visitor is at. Great to give my site's visitors the complete price picture. Only thing is setting the base currency like this doesn't work: [currency base=”PHP”]2000[/currency] I had to change it in the code, easy enough, but I just hope this plugin will keep on being updated when needed so it will keep working. Anyway, thanks for sharing it with the world, appreciate it.
