Hi,

Welcome to the forums!

Yes, this is possible. First you need to create a comparison set for each of your products. Here's how to do that: http://www.datafeedr.com/videos/?vid...rc=yt#videotop

Then you need to create a new custom view with the name compset. You can do that here: The Factory > Your Store > VIEWS > CUSTOM VIEWS > Add a new view.

In that new compset view add a Comparison set module to the page and add the following code to the template area () of the module:

<table width="100%">
  [compset.each]
    <tr>
      <td>[product.merchant_logo]</td>
      <td>[product.currency mode='sign'][product.price]</td>
      <td><a href="[product.url]" class="dfbutton dforange dflarge" rel="nofollow">Buy Now</a></td>
    </tr>
  [/compset.each]
</table>

Then go back to your store's front page view: The Factory > Your Store > VIEWS > STORE FRONT PAGE > Default > Product list module and insert the following code where you want your comparison set to appear:

PHP Code:

<?php echo datafeedr_tag('compset?p='.$product->id); ?>

In my example, to get a ballpark layout like the one you linked to, my Product list module on my Store's Front Page view looks like this:

<div class="pl">
  [product.each]
  <div class="t3 col1">
    <div class="bdr">
      <div class="lc">
        <div class="thmb"><a href="[product.link]" title="[product.name]">[product.image tag='1']</a></div>
        <div class="prc">[product.currency mode='sign'][product.price]</div>
      </div>
      <div class="rc">
        <h2><a href="[product.link]" title="[product.name]">[product.name]</a></h2>
        <div class="desc"><?php echo datafeedr_tag('compset?p='.$product->id); ?></div>
      </div>
      <div class="clearingdiv"> </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  [/product.each]
  <div class="clearingdiv"> </div>
</div>

That worked for me.

Thanks! It seems to work, only one problem.. The code adds <div>
<div class="modwrp col1">
<div class="modcont" >
<div class="clearingdiv">&nbsp;</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="clearingdiv">&nbsp;</div>
</div>

Everywhere, any idea how to get rid off it?

Hi,

Ah yes, forgot that part.

Go here: The Factory > Your Store > VIEWS > CUSTOM VIEWS > compset > View menu > View Properties and check the Don't use layout for this view checkbox.

Save and then click the [Update Settings Only] button.

And another thing, i dont want to loop all products, because then ill get lots of duplicates. I only want to show the compsets once. Any solution ?

[Eric]

Hi,

Yes, go here: The Factory > Your Store > VIEWS > STORE FRONT PAGE > Default > Product list module > Settings ()

Select Use custom query and in the Custom query string field put: compset_status=2

You're welcome.

Hey,

I have another question.. On my category page, how do i show only the products in that category? Atm all my products shows up on the category page?

[theast]

I use custom query

[Eric]

Hi,

That's not quite possible... If you have just a few products in a category you could do what I mentioned here: http://www.datafeedr.com/forums/show...3875#post33875

But it's not possible to do what you did on the store's front page on your category pages. It's an issue with pagination. You can get the page 1 to display but it fails when navigating to page 2, 3, etc...
