In what context? As far as I know, everywhere in the plugin where we can use the € symbol, we are using the € symbol — where that does not apply is in the invoices because the PDF generator script that we are using doesn’t support the € symbol. For prices that display on the events on your site, the € symbol should be what’s displaying.

Like here http://blueinnovators.com/event-registration/?ee=8 You see EUR and then the price. Would look better to have € with one space. How can I achieve that?

What is the version number of Event Espresso that you are using? I could not find the meta generator tag in the html that would tell me from looking at the front end of the site.

Hi there,

There is a good reason to not use the euro symbol as an html entity, it’s not universally supported especially in older browsers. Please see this reference for more info.

One way that you can change this so it displays the symbol on the front end of the site is by adding the following code to your functions.php file or the custom_functions.php file in the custom files add-on:

function my_change_ee_eur( $content ) {

    $content = str_replace( 'EUR', '€', $content);

    return $content;

}

add_filter( 'the_content', 'my_change_ee_eur', 11 );

Thanks Josh. It worked. Great! Just a beautiful € sign. I think your article is very outdated. Nevermind. Solved.
