Compatibility with WooCommerce Checkout Field Editor Pro

[vyskoczilova]

Description

We have a checkout manager plugin (WooCommerce Checkout Field Editor) that can charge a fee whenever a certain option field is selected and that fee is then nicely added to the checkout total and its value can be retrieved using “WC()->cart->fee_total” or “WC()->cart->get_fee_total()”, which we need for a custom payment module.

However, when Pay for Payment is active, the variable WC()->cart->fee_total is zero even though a fee is added to the checkout total. Only when refreshing the page, the variable shows the correct value, but of course, then it’s no longer useful.

We have also tried using another checkout manager plugin (WooCommerce Checkout Manager), but it’s the same issue (when Pay for Payment is active).

The WC Checkout Field Editor Pro dev note

The fee adding functionality was handled by the default WooCommerce hook (woocommerce_cart_calculate_fees). In public/class-thwcfe-public-checkout.php file, line number 199, you can see action hook and itself callback function (woo_cart_calculate_fees) is in the same file.

When the user enters data in the checkout field, we save the additional fee in WordPress transient and as per the transient data, the fee will be added. All related functionalities are in the public/class-thwcfe-public-checkout.php file
