Enabling the Fix mini cart option

By default, this option is disabled.

Sorting by converted price

A product price when calculated using the exchange rate of the currency is called the converted price of the product. So when you enable Sorting by converted price option, the ‘Sort by price’ sorting on the Shop page will be done using the converted price of the product.

Enabling the Sorting by converted price option

Therefore say the shop’s default currency (base currency) is set to Pound sterling and the products are set to Indian rupee. Hence, as per the exchange rate of Indian rupee, the product prices will be converted and sorting of all WooCommerce products will take place on the Shop page using this converted price.

Say for instance, you select Sort by Price:low to high, then all products will appear in ascending order starting with products having lower price.

Filtering as per converted price

By default, Filtering by converted price option is disabled.

Save products prices

Many a times, you use different plugins for your online store. But due to compatibility issues, the prices on the store may be displayed inaccurately. Therefore when you enable Save product prices option, the prices are converted only once and displayed on the store.

Advanced Settings - Tyche Softwares Documentation

This way you can ensure that multiple calculations do not occur when other plugins are used. By default, this option is disabled.

Tools

There are some advanced tools in this plugin which allows you to re-calculate product prices for sorting and filtering purpose and delete plugin’s data if required.

Advanced Settings - Tyche Softwares Documentation

Advanced tools

Re-calculate prices

This option allows you to re-calculate product prices automatically and manually. You can re-calculate (convert) all product prices and save them to use in Sort by Price sorting and Filter Products by Price widget using this option.

Re-calculation take place automatically either when a product is saved or when a scheduled exchange rates update occurs or periodically which is 58 mins until the next update. But if you wish to re-calculate prices manually then you can do so by clicking the Re-calculate prices button. This will re-calculate product prices at that moment.

Delete all plugin’s data

This option will allow you to delete all the stored data of the plugin from the database like plugin’s options and products meta. When you click the Delete all plugin’s data button, it will delete all the data permanently which will not be retrieved using any undo action. Hence it is necessary to be careful while using this option.

Reset Settings

This setting allows you to reset the Advanced Options settings to its default value. To do so, tick the Reset checkbox of Reset section settings.

Reset section settings 

This will disable all the settings under Advanced Options section, if enabled. It will not be applicable for Tools section as these have buttons to perform the action and are independent of all settings. However, the Reset setting will have an impact on the front end. For instance, say you have enabled the option Sorting by converted price and so the products were sorted on the front end. Now when you reset the Advanced settings, this option will be disabled and sorting of products will not take place on the front end.
