zelnik, it can be done, like the mod I mentioned on the release post of this one - Unitconversion1

If Vaupell make the units to be inserted by adminCP, you can make the conversion table by your self.

But the problem in converting currencies is they need to be updated everyday and nowadays there are more them 48 currencies economically reliable so every day you must get updated rates from an economics/financial institute like a bank or something and manually update them. It's a lot of job.
All I did was getting something ready do go from a website like that and make a shape for CMPS.

I agree that external contents are not reliable sometimes but I choose a good source for it. Also, for non-English boards (like myself) this is a pain because there's no way to translate the module, only the title on CMPS - Edit Module page.

But if people here have suggestions from other financial websites that has better formats or scripts for that, I can make some changes and do the same thing I did for this one, no problem.

Also, if someone find a website that has a good script for the same purpose but in a good horizontal format I can make a version for your forum home, footer, navbar or any place you want at vB.

The idea is using an script from a financial website was really get free from need to update rates everyday and let this job for them.
