"Bank Transfer" as payment option for specific currency

Hi everybody,

I've modified my Bank Transfer payment option to a manual Bitcoin payment option with BTC as a custom currency.

When BTC is chosen as a currency, Paypal doesn't show up, which is good because it doesn't support BTC.

I would like the inverse, that when USD/EUR/GBP is active, the Bitcoin (modded Bank Transfer) payment option is hidden.

How would one do this? Any smart coders who know what code to add?

Thank you! Best regards,

You should use the condition to hide the Bitcoin payment option. It checks that the current store currency is not Bitcoin.
I can't say the exact placement for the condition because I am not familiar with the custom changes that you've done.

Hope it helps,
Andrei.

You could also use Restrict Payment Methods to do this, if you aren't able to modify the code yourself.

Code: Select all

if ($this->currency->getCode() != "BTC")

to hide the Bitcoin payment option. It checks that the current store currency is not Bitcoin.

Thanks so much for the code Andrei! I would very much appreciate help with placement.

Clarification:

— The Bank Transfer can be considered as unmodified. Only the wording in bank transfer is changed to instruct the user to pay to a Bitcoin account instead of bank account. No further changes.

— I would like to hide the Bank Transfer payment (reworded as Bitcoin) if USD/EUR/GBP is selected. The only other payment I offer is Paypal Standard.

Where do i put this code snippet for this to work?

Big thanks!

Jonathan: Thanks for the tip! Your extension would be ideal and seems very appreciated. But feels like buying a cow when I need a glass of milk Appreciated though.

No worries, just thought I'd point it out in case you can't get other solutions working. Andrei's code should probably be placed in the model file for the Bank Transfer method, which would be:

/catalog/model/payment/bank_transfer.php

Anywhere in the getMethod() function should be fine, something like:

And it works!

Big thanks Johnathan and Andrei! Much appreciated!

I disablet all currencies but how to make visible if my defaul currency is AUD

Just replace BTC with AUD in the example code given.

Or use Restrict Payment Methods like I mentioned before.
