In WooCommerce,
<?php echo WC()->cart->get_cart_total(); ?>
gives me €1,750.00
How can I get this as a floating number so I can multiply it?
I tried every solution in these two SO questions:
Unable to get cart total in woocommerce
woocommerce – Get Cart Total as number
All outdated and not working. Does anyone know how to do this?

You can refer to WooCommerce
WC_Cart
official documentationThis should work:
Explanations:
Thanks to btomw that pointed out that an argument need to be defined in
WC_Cart
get_total()
method. If you call this method without defining an argument (that should be anything else than ‘view’ string), the output is going to be the formatted total price, as'view'
default argument will be used by this method. So if you want to get a float value(non formatted)
, set as argument anything else that is not ‘view’, even an empty string like''
. As you can see on this method documentation, it’s for backwards compatibility since WooCommerce 3.2.As an alternative to the answer of Sar Putnik, With
WC_Cart
object you can directly access properties liketotal
, which gives a non formatted number:It will give the same output if using
$total = WC()->cart->get_total("");
