## Description

Baxtersweb Currency Display Converter converts display values only. It does not 
process payments, change WooCommerce transactions or alter the store currency.

Choose an ACF field, a WooCommerce product price or a direct shortcode amount as
the value source. Visitors can then select a display currency using a configurable
selector with optional local SVG flags.

The plugin retrieves reference exchange rates from the European Central Bank, stores
the last successful rates locally, and supports manual overrides, buffers and rounding.

External service disclosure:
 This plugin requests the European Central Bank daily
exchange-rate XML feed at https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-daily.
xml. No visitor or website data is sent. The request is made to retrieve public 
reference exchange rates. ECB reference rates are informational and may not match
transaction rates.

Shortcodes:
 [bxtr_currency] [bxtr_currency source=”woocommerce”] [bxtr_currency
id=”123″] [bxtr_currency id=”{{ _layout.object_id }}”] — for Advanced Views Layout
loops [bxtr_currency field=”itinerary_price”] [bxtr_currency amount=”2450″] [bxtr_currency_selector][
bxtr_currency_selector label=”Currency:”]

### External services

Baxtersweb Currency Display Converter connects to the European Central Bank Data
Portal API to retrieve currency exchange rates used by the plugin.

The plugin sends requests containing the selected base currency, requested currencies
and relevant date or rate parameters. These requests are made when exchange-rate
data needs to be retrieved or refreshed. No WordPress user account details, customer
information, form submissions or payment information are intentionally sent by the
plugin.

The exchange-rate service is provided by the European Central Bank:

API information: https://data.ecb.europa.eu/help/api/overview

https://www.ecb.europa.eu/services/using-our-site/disclaimer/html/index.en.html 
ECB Data Portal privacy statement: https://data.ecb.europa.eu/privacy-statement-
ecb-data-portal

By using the plugin’s currency-conversion functionality, data requests are sent 
from the website server to this external service.

## Installation

 1. Upload and activate the plugin.
 2. Open Tools > Currency Converter.
 3. Choose ACF or WooCommerce as the price source.
