Help reordering currency default in flex theme

  • Verified all market settings were correct
  • Issue persisted despite these changes

Hi everyone

I recently upgradeded my theme to Flex from out of the Sandbox, but the currency converter tool keeps defaulting to CAD no matter what I try. All of my default currency settings in shopify are set to AUD.

I have tried uninstalling geolocation, all of my markets are set correctly, but I am still stuck.

Can anyone please help? www.farkewemporium.com

Hey! Did you get this sorted? I have the same issue. It’s displaying CAD but it should be AUD!

Thanks for your help in advance.

Yes I did. I managed to locate the error in the code and manually changed it myself.

I need to tell Out of the Sandbox that their code has a mistake in it. Very frustrating.

Any chance you can share the solution to the mistake in the code? Thank you!
