Key Features
YITH WooCommerce Compare adds a “compare” action to WooCommerce products so visitors can line up several items in a single comparison table. Store owners choose which attributes and fields appear, style the table and the compare button, and let customers add or remove products without reloading the page. The comparison view works through shortcodes and product page buttons.
