Please select your currency from this fancy drop down list. I know there’s only one currency available! Just select it!
So yeah, I disabled the other currencies in the store configuration, because I didn’t know how to delete them. But that box still showed up. Is it hard-coded? Or can it be made to go away when there’s only one currency available?

Hi there,
Could you please tell me how to remove the Euro and Canadian Dollar from the Currency Options in System > Configuration ?
I am on Safari in Mac OS 10.4.10; if it makes any difference. I cannot see a way to remove them.
Hi there, at the moment you can’t - but you can remove them using phpmyadmin (or another mysql interface). If you need further help to do this please post and i will provide more detailed instructions.

Yes, please, I would love as much details as you can provide to do this. This is a steep learning curve for me and Varien will probbaly be able to collect bits from all over this forum to form their Magento Documentation later down the road.
1. Login to phpmyadmin
2. Choose the magento database
3. click the small icon beside the table ‘directory_currency_name’
4. simply click on the red x to delete the currencies you do not want.
Do the same for the ‘directory_currency’ table (it will still work if you don’t but best we keep them in sync)
It depends where you are running magento? is it live or local?
If local then try http://localhost/phpmyadmin - if it is live - have a look in your control panel that your host would have provided to you.
The guys at nexcess are really helpful, I’m glad Roy posted a link to them. I went with their VPS, and it’s the best VPS I’ve ever had to date. Course I made sure they set it up with Magento compatability. Was cheaper than my old one too.
Course, you need to know some basics on server management because VPS’s are unmanaged, meaning you usually have to do everything yourself.
I am new to magento, have just installed Magento Preview 0.7.15480 (January 29, 2008).
I dont have fhe tables (directory_currency_name , directory_currency ) in the magento database with that currencys - is there something
changed since your description - I didnt understand where these values come from..
whre can I add/delete curencies on db ?
I’m using Magento 1.2.1.2 and I have the same problem. There are no directory_currency_name , directory_currency tables on my database and I don’t know how to change/add/delete some currency.
I just figured out how to add some currency to Magento:
1) Edit \magento\lib\Zend\Locale\Data\en.xml and add the currency to currencies node:
<currency type="XXX">
<displayName>XXX Points</displayName>
<displayName count="one">XXX Point</displayName>
<displayName count="other">XXX Points</displayName>
<symbol>XX$</symbol>
</currency>
2) Clear cache, delete files directory \magento\var\cache\*
3) Restart Apache.
4) Go to System -> Configuration -> Advanced -> System -> Currency -> Installed Currencies: select “XXX Points” and click Save Config.
5) Go to System -> Configuration -> General -> Currency Setup and choose “XXX Points” to allow currencies.
