I'm trying to remove the currency switcher from the header in Magento 2 with little luck. I've tried this in my theme's default.xml file
<referenceBlock name="store.settings.currency" remove="true"/>
But that doesn't seem to do anything. Plan B is to hide it with CSS but I feel like I should be able to remove it with a layout update.
Block name to remove currency should be "currency", please try:
<referenceBlock name="currency" remove="true"/>
To remove currency from the website totally - do not forget about the mobile version, as there is another template which is responsible for rendering it inside "hamburger". So use both variants (from the question too)
<referenceBlock name="currency" remove="true" />
<referenceBlock name="store.settings.currency" remove="true" />
Step 1: Go to the following path
app/design/frontend/Themes/Yourtheme/Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml
And add the below code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
<body>
<referenceBlock name="currency" remove="true" />
<referenceBlock name="store.settings.currency" remove="true" />
</body>
</page>
Note: In case you already have file named “default.xml”, you just need to add the below two lines before the closing of </body> tag.
