Product comparison Section Guide
This guide describes the Product comparison section.
Use this section to compare multiple products side by side in a clean, table-style layout. Each product entry can include an image, title, price, and product description, added through blocks.
Comparison fields can include:
- Variant options
- Product type
- SKU
- Vendor
These details are pulled automatically from the product’s detail page—provided the relevant information has been filled in.
For more flexibility, you can create metafields to display custom information. Additionally, manual input is supported, allowing you to add unique data or custom content directly into the comparison table.
You can add a button to each product column. This button can be customized with options such as:
- View Product: This will link to the product detail page for more information.
- Add to Cart: For products without variants, this button allows customers to add the product directly to the cart.
- Quick View: For products with variants, this button triggers a Quick View popup, allowing customers to select variants and add the product to the cart without leaving the page.
Demo Example:
The Product Comparison section displayed on the product detail page, featuring three similar products. Each product is shown with its image, title, price, description, and key specification such as weight. Custom metafields are used to display unique attributes like nutritional information and discount details, helping customers make informed purchasing decisions.
