Thanks.")* Hi, You can have a comparison page with HikaShop, like this: [ demo.hikashop.com/index.php/en/other-features/comparison-page](https://demo.hikashop.com/index.php/en/other-features/comparison-page) These products don't have custom product fields. If they did, each custom product field would appear as an extra row, with the value of the field in the product in each column of that row. However, there is no dropdown mechanism to be able to select another product and switch the comparison data on the column. This would require reworking the product / compare.php view file with a override via the menu Display>Views. If you already have a comparison system you like on your website, maybe you can reuse it, and just change the add to cart buttons to use HikaShop's buttons with content tags ? [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/1...-product-insert.html](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/137-hikashop-product-insert.html) The problem with this is that the data in the products won't be synchronized with the data displayed by the comparator. Modifying the compare view file would be a better long term solution, but it require heavy development to add the dropdown switch mechanism to it.

We gonna have this product comparison on a few product categories. Thanks.")* Hi, As a custom development, it sure is possible. It will require developing a small module which would load the comparison layout. That's what we do for most of the modules by default in HikaShop. For example, the cart module's files are in the modules/mod_hikasop_cart/ folder on your website. However, besides loading the settings of the module, it is mostly empty. It just load the corresponding layout from the HikaShop component. It does this with the line: Code: $html = trim(hikashop_getLayout('product','cart',$params,$js)); This allows it to load the HTML of the view file product / cart of HikaShop. So you could have something similar by replacing "cart" by "compare" in your custom module in order to use the product / compare view file which is used by HikaShop for the menu comparison page.
