This article refers to the Currency Switcher for Easy Digital Downloads. That plugin was retired in 2021 and it's no longer available for purchase. If you're looking for the documentation for the Aelia Currency Switcher for WooCommerce, please refer to the following article: https://aelia.freshdesk.com/a/solutions/articles/3000019223.

The Currency Switcher contains an extensive list of currencies, and an association between a country and the currency used in it. For example, all

countries in the Eurozone are associated to Euro, with the exception of United Kingdom, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and a few others. Depending on your setup, you may need to ensure that visitors from a country see prices in a specific currency, which may not match the one set by default in the Currency Switcher.

How to modify the default country/currency association list

You can change the currency associated with each country by implementing a custom filter. Below you can find a sample filter, which you can copy and adapt to your needs.

/**
 * Alters the currency associated with several countries.
 *
 * @param array country_currencies An array of country code => currency code pairs.
 * @return array
 */
function change_country_currencies($country_currencies) {
  // Set currency to Euro for Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and Great Britain
  $country_currencies['DK'] = 'EUR';
  $country_currencies['FI'] = 'EUR';
  $country_currencies['NO'] = 'EUR';
  $country_currencies['SE'] = 'EUR';
  $country_currencies['GB'] = 'EUR';

  return $country_currencies;
}

add_filter('edd_aelia_currencyswitcher_country_currencies', 'change_country_currencies', 10, 1);
