Paypal Currency Issue - Always Reverting to Local Currency

Hi there,

Firstly let me say this is a fantastic system - well done to all involved.

I'm having an issue with paypal using multiple currencies.  I'm using version 6.5 because my web host does not have the latest php version.

I'd like to be able to use multiple currencies.  I've set up it for pounds, US dollars, and New Zealand dollars (all of which paypal support).  All of this works fine, until you get to the checkout, select paypal, and click continue.

No matter what currency is selected, the paypal page always wants to pay in the default local currency.

That is to say, the currency defined in admin > configuration > setting > local > currency

The paypal payment module itself is set to payment zone : all zones and currency : selected currency.

I've tried and retried and played around for a long time using various currencies but have found nothing.  It appears you can only pay using paypal in one currency.

I'm quite a newbie in the coding world so really wouldn't know where to begin.

This is a very important issue for me however - any help in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

I look forward to your reply,


Kind regards,

John
