Product comparison module

By neo11yu on 12 Mar 2008 at 23:14 UTC

Hello,

I was trying to find module that will allow me to have product comparison in some kind of a table. I need to enter lots of different products and to compare them on some criteria. I'm not sure this could be accomplished using views.
I couldn't find anything... Does anyone have any hints? :-D

Thanks!

cck fields and then a custom query?

sounds like you'll need to use cck fields of assorted types and then write a page snippet for the actual table output depending on what you're trying to do, number of variables for comparison and all of that.

Hmmm

Huh, any further info on that? What are assorted types? What is page snippet? How do I do that?

thanks!

quick note

what i mean is take your 'content type' (lets call it a 'page' in admin/content types) and then with the cck module enabled, you can add fields to a page for text or numbers, images, etc...you can also create a vocabulary of terms that apply to any such page (foods: fruit, meat etc) - within the 'documentation' link up above in drupal.org you'll see a huge section on "php snippets" for pages and blocks - you need to go to modules, enable the "php module" and then when you cut and paste those snippets into a page or block to 'display information from those content types' you've modified with cck or whatever, you'll simply select 'php input' instead of default html filter
