Shipping classes vary based on choices

Hi there,

I took a look at what’s possible, and I’m sure it is doable, though it’s not a simple task.

See the following code:

add_action( 'woocommerce_before_calculate_totals', function( $cart_obj ) {
		$cart_contents = $cart_obj->get_cart();
		foreach ( $cart_contents as $key => $cart_item ) {
			// Check the cart item selection
			if ( mkl_pc_is_configurable( $cart_item['product_id'] ) && isset( $cart_item['configurator_data'] ) && is_array( $cart_item['configurator_data'] ) ) {
				
				// Check the configurator's choices
				foreach( $cart_item['configurator_data'] as $selected_choice ) {
					if ( 'Something special' === $selected_choice->get_choice( 'name' ) ) {
						// Change the shipping class ID
						$cart_item['data']->set_shipping_class_id( 67 );
					}
				}
			}
		}
}, 10, 1);

This should change the shipping class of the product depending on a selected choice. This seems to work, though it might not be a full solution.

Otherwise if you are using the linked product / stock management add-on, you may be able to link a choice to a different product which has a specific class.

Great! Thank you – it works exactly as it should. ??
