FAQ
-
How to display currency conversion in a theme or PHP code?
-
Use the direct helper in PHP templates:
<?php echo fxcc_convert(array('num' => 100, 'from' => 'USD', 'to' => 'EUR')); ?>The admin generator can also switch from shortcode mode to a ready-to-paste
fxcc_convert()PHP snippet.The admin generator includes the attribution link attribute by default, and new Gutenberg converter blocks start with attribution enabled in the block sidebar.
You can also keep using the shortcode form:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[fxcc_convert num="100" from="USD" to="EUR"]'); ?> -
