By default the WooCommerce cart is ordered by when products are ordered in sequence, this can be manipulated with the woocommerce_cart_loaded_from_session hook.
A new array is created $products_in_cart and the carts content is looped with the key of the array being the price $product->get_price(), the array is then sorted with asort or arsort before being put back in a new array.
add_action( 'woocommerce_cart_loaded_from_session', 'prefix_cart_order_prod_cat' );
/**

*/
function prefix_cart_order_prod_cat() {
$products_in_cart = array();
// Assign each product's price to its cart item key (to be used again later)
foreach ( WC()->cart->cart_contents as $key => $item ) {
$product = wc_get_product( $item['product_id'] );
$products_in_cart[ $key ] = $product->get_price();
}
// SORTING - use one or the other two following lines:
//asort( $products_in_cart ); // sort low to high
arsort( $products_in_cart ); // sort high to low
// Put sorted items back in cart
$cart_contents = array();
foreach ( $products_in_cart as $cart_key => $price ) {
$cart_contents[ $cart_key ] = WC()->cart->cart_contents[ $cart_key ];
}
WC()->cart->cart_contents = $cart_contents;
}
The above will sort from high to low, to reverse the sort from low to high comment out the sorting options in the code snippet.
