Answer 1

I fixed it. Posting my answer may be it can help someone.

edit this file.

vendor\magento\zendframework1\library\Zend\Locale\Data\ar_SA.xml

and remove following code.

<numbers>
<currencyFormats numberSystem="latn">
<currencyFormatLength>
<currencyFormat type="standard">
<pattern>¤#0.00</pattern>
</currencyFormat>
</currencyFormatLength>
</currencyFormats>
</numbers>

UPDATED ANSWER ========

I got better solution instead editing core file you can do it with observer.

Vendor/Module/etc/events.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Event/etc/events.xsd">
    <event name="currency_display_options_forming">
        <observer name="change_currency_position" instance="Vendor\Module\Model\Observer\ChangeCurrencyPosition" />
    </event>
</config>

and observer File.

use Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface;
class ChangeCurrencyPosition implements ObserverInterface
{
    public function execute(\Magento\Framework\Event\Observer $observer)
    {
        $currencyOptions = $observer->getEvent()->getCurrencyOptions();
        $currencyOptions->setData('position', \Magento\Framework\Currency::RIGHT);
        return $this;
    }
}

Need to change the 'position' to RIGHT.

Update ar_SA.xml like below:

Answer 3

I fixed it.

We were running into this issue on m2.4.3 and 2.4.5.

Viewing the screenshots on Safari's Timeline feature on Inspect Element, I could see when the currency symbol disappears. You can see just before the symbol disappears that there are two .js scripts running. Filtering by "price" results in price-box.js line 148, which is located in:

vendor/magento/module-catalog/view/base/web/js/price-box.js

I copied this file into our theme: <vendor>/<theme>/Magento_Catalog/web/js/price-box.js

and where it said:

_.each(this.cache.displayPrices, function (price, priceCode) {

I removed the ".cache" from the code and it now runs perfectly. eg:

    _.each(this.displayPrices, function (price, priceCode) {

Haven't seen any dramatic slowdown in pageload speed

Answer 4

Its a bug in 2.4.3:

src\vendor\magento\module-directory\Model\Currency.php

Comment out these lines:

if ($this->canUseNumberFormatter($options)) {
    return $this->formatCurrency($price, $options);
}

Then:

php -dmemory_limit=6G bin/magento setup:upgrade
php -dmemory_limit=6G bin/magento setup:di:compile
php -dmemory_limit=6G bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
php -dmemory_limit=6G bin/magento cache:flush

Editing core is bad, we can create preference.

Answer 5

If @Ask4Tec's solution is not working

Try this

Copy the currency and numbers block from en.xml file and paste it into the ar_SA.xml file Clean and flush cache Check after hard refresh
