creating a custom tax

  • We have a maximum tax in our area of $500 with a rate of 7.5%. But I cant seem to get the filter to work right. I need to have the tax set to charge no more than 37.50 per order (7.5% of 500).

    I’ve tried to using the following filter found in class-wc-tax.php but only get a return of 0:

    $tax_amount = apply_filters( 'woocommerce_price_ex_tax_amount', $tax_amount, $key, $rate, $price, $the_price_inc_tax, $pre_compound_total );

    and used the following code in my themes function:

    add_filter('woocommerce_price_ex_tax_amount','homer_max_tax');

function homer_max_tax($tax_amount) {
                if($tax_amount > 37.49) {$tax_amount = 37.50; }

    return $tax_amount;
}

    I’m pretty new to php and I have been able to get the function to work an isolated test environment but can’t get it to work within WordPress

    thanks for any help I can get!

    I finally figured it out. If anyone has a better way to write this, I would like the input.

    in my function file I added:

    function homer_max_tax($tax_amount , $rate, $price) {

    if($tax_amount > 375000)
        $tax_amount = 375000;
        return $tax_amount;
   }

    This actually only worked per line item and not on the subtotal. Does anyone know which filter to use to do this on the subtotal.
