Change currency symbol in WooCommerce emails notifications


I am struggeling by changing the currency symbol in WooCommerce email notifications.

Everywhere you can see the € currency, but as far as you open the emails, you find, that the currency there is £.

I tried to add this function using Snipets:

/**
* change currency symbol to €
*/

add_filter( 'woocommerce_currency_symbol', 'wc_change_uae_currency_symbol', 10, 2 );

function wc_change_uae_currency_symbol( $currency_symbol, $currency ) {
switch ( $currency ) {
case '€':
$currency_symbol = '€';
break;
}

return $currency_symbol;
}

But nothing has changed. Any advice?


Here is a simple image for that also describe the situation:

Solution

  • This should fix the issue:

    function filter_woocommerce_currency_symbol( $currency_symbol, $currency ) {    
        // Compare
        switch( $currency ) {
            case 'GBP': $currency_symbol = '€';
            break;
        }
        
        return $currency_symbol;
    }
    add_filter( 'woocommerce_currency_symbol', 'filter_woocommerce_currency_symbol', 1, 2 );
    

    The difference is that you are currently converting € symbol into the € symbol
