Hey I wonder if anyone can help me. I have the WooCommerce Compare Products Lite Plug-in installed. I can add the comparison widgets but there are no Comparison Buttons are anything appearing anywhere on my site. In the WC Compare Products Manager the Products are listed as Deactivated. Does the Lite version not actually allow you to compare products? Do you required the Pro version before this will start to work? https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-compare-products/ Hello Jackie Boy What you have described is how the plugin works when first inmstalled – The Compare button does not show on any products until you actually add Compare function and features to a Product. Here is a link to the plugin docs that will show you some detail how to do that. http://docs.a3rev.com/user-guides/plugins-extensions/woocommerce/compare-products/ Thank you – Steve Hi Steve, Thanks very much for your reply. Yeah I have checked through your documentation but unfortunately I don’t have the Product Comparison option in the WooCommerce admin area. My WooCommerce Admin area contains the usual options of: ORDERS, COUPONS, REPORTS, SETTINGS, SYSTEM STATUS, and ADD-ONS but there is no PRODUCT COMPARISON option as highlighted in your documentation. I also checked the new WC COMPARE admin area which was created when I installed the Comparison Plug-in but the only options I have there are: CATEGORY & FEATURE, PRODUCT MANAGER, SETTINGS & STYLE but no PRODUCT COMPARISON option. Is it relevant if I tell you i am only working on a project, I will not actually be selling things on my website. I just want it to display some products and allow users to compare products to find the best deal. Also will this compariosn plug-in be compatible with the DYNAMIC PRICING add-on from WOOCommerce which I am hoping to use on my website. It’s after 2am now so I am going to read back through the documentation from the beginning to see if I can figure this out. Maybe I am doing something wring but I am unable to edit the 2 test products I have inputted so far, it’s clear I need the Pro version for that but I am unfortunately not in a position to get Pro just yet. My project is a proof of concept for my final year project at university as I am studying a website & multimedia degree. this project is for my degree and the pro version would help defo help. is there any chance i could use the pro version for a couple of months til the end of my current academic year which finishes in July 2015 if I put a thankyou in my website and documentation? I will also rate 5 stars and you never know, if my project is successful i may be able to set my site up for real and make some money. then i would obviously contribute to the developer and purchase the plug-in in the normal way. Anyway, thanks for your help and If you can spot any problems from the information I gave you in the last message please let me know. Kindest regards.
