The Indian currency numbering system is looks like :
1
10
100
1,000
10,000
1,00,000
10,00,000
1,00,00,000
10,00,00,000
How do i change that numbering system in my wordpress website?
is there any plugin available?

Answer 1

Well, you can use the function numberToCurrencymade by hitswa
Then this function can be used in different ways:
Directly to the field: <?php echo numberToCurrency( get_post_meta( get_the_id(), 'price', true ) ); ?>
Apply a filter to the field assuming that your code to display the field is like this:
$unformatted_price = get_post_meta(get_the_id(), 'price', true);<br>
echo apply_filters('price_meta_content', $unformatted_price );
And on your functions.php <?php add_filter( 'price_meta_content', 'numberToCurrency' ) ; ?>
Another solution would be to add a filter to the_content
add_filter('the_content','strnumtocurrency', 99);
function strnumtocurrency($content){
$pattern = "/(\d+.\d+)/";
return preg_replace( $pattern, numberToCurrency('$1'), $content );
}
Here is the numberToCurrency code
<?php
function numberToCurrency($number)
{
if(setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_IN'))
return money_format('%.0n', $number);
else {
$explrestunits = "" ;
$number = explode('.', $number);
$num = $number[0];
if(strlen($num)>3){
$lastthree = substr($num, strlen($num)-3, strlen($num));
$restunits = substr($num, 0, strlen($num)-3); // extracts the last three digits
$restunits = (strlen($restunits)%2 == 1)?"0".$restunits:$restunits; // explodes the remaining digits in 2's formats, adds a zero in the beginning to maintain the 2's grouping.
$expunit = str_split($restunits, 2);
for($i=0; $i<sizeof($expunit); $i++){
// creates each of the 2's group and adds a comma to the end
if($i==0)
{
$explrestunits .= (int)$expunit[$i].","; // if is first value , convert into integer
}else{
$explrestunits .= $expunit[$i].",";
}
}
$thecash = $explrestunits.$lastthree;
} else {
$thecash = $num;
}
if(!empty($number[1])) {
if(strlen($number[1]) == 1) {
return '₹ ' .$thecash . '.' . $number[1] . '0';
} else if(strlen($number[1]) == 2){
return '₹ ' .$thecash . '.' . $number[1];
} else {
return 'cannot handle decimal values more than two digits...';
}
} else {
return '₹ ' .$thecash.'.00';
}
}
}
?>
