We wanna add currency selector in the header menu.
We tried two ways of doing the same :
1) Add a block in the head section of directory.xml file located at the following path :
/aap/design/frontend/base/default/layout/directory.xml
here we have the following block :
<default>
<reference name="head">
<block type="core/template" name="optional_zip_countries" as="optional_zip_countries" template="directory/js/optional_zip_countries.phtml" />
<block type="directory/currency" name="currency" template="directory/currency.phtml"/>
</reference>
</default>But with this, the selector comes above the header menu as shown in the image.
2) Adding currency-switcher in the header.phtml file as follows :
<div class="currency-switcher"><?php echo $this->getChildHtml('currency_switcher'); ?></div>
Gives following error :
Fatal error: Call to a member function getCode() on a non-object in /public_html/app/design/frontend/base/default/template/directory/currency/switch.phtml on line 30
Please suggest how can we add the currency selector/switcher block in the header.phtml
