move currency above checkout

Is it possible to move the currency selector from the top left to above the checkout? I have added flag images however customers are still not finding the currency selector. If it were above the checkout to the right of wishlist or all the way on the right side of the headers it may be more obvious.
Ocart version 2.1.0.1

You can get this done by editing below file.

/catalog/view/theme/default/template/common/header.php

1. Search for below code and delete it.
<?php echo $currency; ?>

2. Now, search for
<ul class="list-inline">
and add below given code after it.
<div style=" float:left; position: relative;margin: -8px;"><?php echo $currency; ?></div>

Hope it helps

Thanks for the info. I gave it a try but it stayed where it was. Should it read 'float right' rather than 'float left' since it is already near the left margin?

No, the shared code is correct. We have shared after testing it on fresh OCX 2.1.0.1 installation.

Are you using any other theme, can you check source code (Ctrl+U) of the page to ensure modified code is reflecting.

I checked the code but it is hard to see if it is 'reflecting' since the file code and page source code look different.
Here is the .tpl file code with your advised code changes:

<div class="container">
<?php echo $language; ?>
<div id="top-links" class="nav pull-right">
<ul class="list-inline"><div style=" float:left; position: relative;margin: -8px;"><?php echo $currency; ?></div>

Here is the page source code of the same area:

<div class="container">
<div class="pull-left">
<form action="https://ssl.e-safenet.com/kangausa/ocar ... y/currency" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="currency">
<div class="btn-group">
<button class="btn btn-link dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown">
<img src="image/flags/ca.png" alt="Canada" /><img src="image/flags/us.png" alt="USA" />
<strong>$</strong>
<span class="hidden-xs hidden-sm hidden-md">Currency</span> <i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li><button class="currency-select btn btn-link btn-block" type="button" name="CAD">$ Canadian Dollar</button></li>
<li><button class="currency-select btn btn-link btn-block" type="button" name="USD">$ US Dollar</button></li>
</ul>
</div>

It seems that either there is some mistake in making the suggested changes or there is some cache management on your store which is preventing code to reflect changes.

Kindly find attached header.tpl file. Make a backup of your existing header.tpl file and then replace with the attached one.

Thanks for your help with this. I followed your directions and there still is no change.

It should have worked as it is working fine for us on fresh OC installation.

Since changes are not reflected even after uploading the file that we have shared with you, it might be an issue of cache.

I have 2 flag images beside the words $Currency. Would this make a difference?

This code worked perfectly first time.

However, i woulkd like to place the currency module on the left hand side bar of home page or other similar locations. Where Would I post your code to do that?
Grateful for your help?

Could you please share your website URL.

Also share a screenshot of the expected result.

Thanks for response.
