Change shipping method based on payment method in WooCommerce [duplicate] - php

Question

I need to disable specific shipping method if user selected payment "Cash on Delivery". The problem is that the following code works only if I reset
WooCommerce transients each time and refresh. It doesn't work on user selection back and forth.
add_filter( 'woocommerce_package_rates', 'alter_shipping_methods', 100 );
function alter_shipping_methods( $rates ) {
$chosen_gateway = WC()->session->chosen_payment_method;
// If payment is Cash on delivery remove specific shipping
if($chosen_gateway == 'cod') {
foreach ( $rates as $rate_id => $rate ) {
if ( $rate->label === 'Hrvatska pošta' ) {
unset( $rates[ $rate_id ] );
}
}
}
return $rates;
}
I do have this code which should trigger and I see the output in console when I click around options.
jQuery(document.body).on('change', 'input[name="payment_method"]', function() {
console.log('Payment method changed');
jQuery('body').trigger('update_checkout');
});
I have tried with this, it doesn't work:
function action_woocommerce_checkout_update_order_review($array, $int) {
WC()->cart->calculate_shipping();
return;
}
add_action('woocommerce_checkout_update_order_review', 'action_woocommerce_checkout_update_order_review', 10, 2);
And I have also tried custom AJAX call which calls a PHP function and inside this filter, no result:
add_filter( 'woocommerce_package_rates', 'alter_shipping_methods', 100 );
What should I try next?

For COD payment gateways, you can just add in its settings the "Flat rate" shipping methods that you want to enable for it, like:
For Cod and other methods or for others payment gateways, here is the complete working way to disable a specific shipping method(s) for specific payment gateway(s).
You will have to set in the first function the shipping method Id that you wish to hide.
The code:
add_action( 'woocommerce_package_rates','show_hide_shipping_methods', 10, 2 );
function show_hide_shipping_methods( $rates, $package ) {
// HERE Define your targeted shipping method ID
$payment_method = 'cod';
$chosen_payment_method = WC()->session->get('chosen_payment_method');
if( $payment_method == $chosen_payment_method ){
unset($rates['flat_rate:12']);
}
return $rates;
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_review_order_before_payment', 'payment_methods_trigger_update_checkout' );
function payment_methods_trigger_update_checkout(){
// jQuery code
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
(function($){
$( 'form.checkout' ).on( 'change blur', 'input[name^="payment_method"]', function() {
setTimeout(function(){
$(document.body).trigger('update_checkout');
}, 250 );
});
})(jQuery);
</script>
<?php
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_update_order_review', 'refresh_shipping_methods' );
function refresh_shipping_methods( $post_data ){
// HERE Define your targeted shipping method ID
$payment_method = 'cod';
$bool = true;
if ( WC()->session->get('chosen_payment_method') === $payment_method )
$bool = false;
// Mandatory to make it work with shipping methods
foreach ( WC()->cart->get_shipping_packages() as $package_key => $package ){
WC()->session->set( 'shipping_for_package_' . $package_key, $bool );
}
WC()->cart->calculate_shipping();
}
Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (or active theme). Tested and works.
To be able to get the correct shipping method ID you can use your browser inspector, this way:
You may need to empty cart before testing this code.
