Hi, I am unable to get this to work. I installed v1.12.2 I have python v3.10.4 Alfred version 4.6.4 I obtained API and added to workflow environment variable. However, when I type currency and press spacebar, it asks if I want to search for currency in Google/Amazon, etc Please advise

Hi @mlondon88,

I assume you are using macOS Monterey (12.0). Apple decided to no longer ship php bundled with macOS.

The ultimate currency converter (like many other Alfred workflows) uses php as programming/scripting language.

So, in order to get it working under 12.0 Monterey, you need to install php manually. Our recommendation is to go with homebrew. Alfred has built-in support for php from homebrew.

1.) Install homebrew (if you do not have it already), go here brew.sh or directly run 

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

in your Terminal.app

2.) Install php with homebrew, i.e. run 

brew install php

in Terminal.app

This should solve your issue. If not, please let us know. I will add hint for missing php in macOS Monterey to README.md.
