Windows Users - money_format() issue

The money_format function does not work in Windows. Take a look at this thread. As an alternative, just use the number_format function instead.

In app/helpers.php replace money_format line with return '$'.number_format($price / 100, 2);
In app/Product.php replace money_format line with return '$'.number_format($this->price / 100, 2);
In config/cart.php set the thousand_seperator to an empty string or you might get a 'non well formed numeric value encountered' error. It conflicts with number_format.

Built With
