Bug with the “woocommerce_before_calculate_totals” action

[Giuseppe Carrelli]

I’m writing this because I think we have a bug with the “woocommerce_before_calculate_totals” action.
We use learnpress plus woocommerce and we bought the “learnpress for woocommerce” too for the integration.
We need to be able to change the price in the cart of the item, based on some custom conditions.

I have just done in the past this kind of operation without any problem (but without learnpress).
Now it seems that, after changing the price, the cart show always the standard price – ignoring totally the change.
After hours spent with no result we decided to kindly ask you.

I can confirm that the action “woocommerce_before_calculate_totals” is called correctly and the operation to change price too (I log the object before and after the action and I can read my custom price set correctly) but at the end we got the cart with standard price, no matter what we do.

This is the snippet used to change the price, here to set all to 111 (just to test) but it doesn’t work in the final added product in cart.
(the same snippet with woocommerce but without learnpress work)

function woocommerce_custom_price_to_cart_item( $cart_object ) {
foreach ( $cart_object->cart_contents as $key => $value ) {
$value[‘data’]->set_price( 111 );
}
}
add_action( ‘woocommerce_before_calculate_totals’, ‘woocommerce_custom_price_to_cart_item’, 10 );

I’ve also checked if there are other plugins that “do stuff” on that action hook but debugging $_GLOBALS[‘wp_filter’] I can find only our code in a single action binded on “woocommerce_before_calculate_totals”.

I hope you can help us with this task.
