Product listings currency conversion ---> error

Currency Preference
Please select the currency you do business with on the marketplace. When your currency locale is set, our marketplace will calculate costs in your currency.



however, when you go and view a product listing:
http://demo.ilance.com/House-lake-maggiore--italy-Item14555414
it does not show any conversion for your currency. This is evident for all the fields: "Current Bid" "Purchase Now" and "Shipping Costs".

Service listings do show the conversion, just not the product listings...

Hi
currency converter only convert "manually" everything. So it means you need to click "Currency Converter" link and enter amounts. It's how it works :)
BTW All currency rates are updated automatically :)

That's not what i'm referring to above.

If you look at "Service" listings:
http://demo.ilance.com/Landscaping-Project-RFP94217320

you will see that it is converting out the listed currency USD to your own currency locale as set here:
http://demo.ilance.com/preferences.php?cmd=currency

So in effect, the Product listings are not doing/showing this...

i think it will also be good that registered user see the converted currency in the homepage as well rather than the system currency.

I get what you are saying there, I would have thought that everywhere that shows a system currency price would have a users local currency display with it, it is set up this way for certain parts of the site, just not showing everywhere.

I feel that since user already make an effort to indicate for preferred currency, it should only show the currency he selected.
