# New WordPress Plugin – LocalCurrency

 * I’m pleased to announce the release of the [LocalCurrency](http://www.jobsinchina.com/resources/wordpress-plugin-localcurrency/)
   plugin.
 * LocalCurrency shows currency values to readers in their local currency (in brackets
   after the original value). For example: If the site’s currency is Chinese yuan
   and the post contains 10 yuan, a user from Australia will see 10 yuan (AUD$1.53),
   while a user from US will see 10 yuan (USD$1.39).
 * Features include:
    - Determines the reader’s country via IP address
    - Obtains current exchange rate from Yahoo! Finance
    - Uses ‘AJAX’ techniques so the call to Yahoo! Finance does not affect page 
      load times
    - Does not do anything if there is no currency value in the post
    - Allows user to change their currency via a selection box
 * For more information, please see the [LocalCurrency release announcement](http://www.jobsinchina.com/blog/jobsinchina-presents-localcurrency-wordpress-plugin/)
   and the [plugin home page](http://www.jobsinchina.com/resources/wordpress-plugin-localcurrency/).
