After live testing, it turned out that determining the default currency is not that simple for users who visit the page for the first time, since the yay_currency_widget cookie may not exist yet.

Currently, I have tried to get the default currency by using static methods from the yaycurrency-pro/includes/Helpers/YayCurrencyHelper.php file.

These methods are:

get_id_selected_currency
detect_current_currency
get_apply_currency

At first, calling them from inside the breeze_currency_switcher_cache() function in the breeze/inc/functions.php file seemed problematic because the breeze_currency_switcher_cache() method is executed very early in the WordPress loading process. The methods from YayCurrencyHelper rely on WordPress functions such as sanitize_key, get_post, get_option, etc., which are not available yet at that stage (at least in my setup).

I cloned a definition of the sanitize_key method inside breeze_currency_switcher_cache() to make it possible to call get_id_selected_currency(). However, it still returned a value only when the yay_currency_widget cookie was not empty.

Eventually, I figured out that the get_apply_currency() method is the one that reliably determines the user’s currency, regardless of whether the cookie is set. The get_apply_currency() method also uses the value from the yay_currency_auto_select_currency_by_countries option to detect the currency based on the user’s country/IP. However, it still cannot be called unless get_option() is available in the execution context.

Thanks, I did so
