The problem I feel is the fact that customers may leave the site without un-checking the boxes. When they return, the boxes remain checked and may lead to confusion or throw and error.

 

It would be nice if the "cache" or what ever to call the "memory" would clear and start at 0 for each visit.

 

Example:

 

I visit my site and compare products A & B.

 

I leave the site without unchecking the two products.

 

Now I return and want to compare products C & D & E

 

I will either be viewing all products (A,B, C, D, E) in a comparison or receive an error message regarding the limit of products is exceeded.

 

Thank you

you are absolutely correct that this needs to be fixed. The average visitor/shopper is going to have no clue why they can't compare products...nor should they have to clear anything on their visit or return. It is not up to the consumer to have to figure out what the proper steps are to making PS work

Product comparison doesn't work for me either since I updated to 1.5. It was working fine before. I found that many features got broken after the update... I was able to fix of them with some Googleing, but haven't found a solution with this one.

 

First problem, when I check the Cmparre checkbox on a product, it unchecks itself 1 second later, making it impossible to actually select more than one product(unless you are very quick on pressing the "Comparre" button). Seems like a Javascript/jQuery glitch.

 

And when I click to the compare button, it gives me an 404 error...

 

 

I tried reverting back to the default template in case it was caused by the theme I made, but it still doesn't work.

The product comparison is not working with the default PS 1.5.1.0 theme.

When i select 2 or 3 products to compare, the comparison page shows "There are no products selected for comparison".

 

The product comparison is not working with the default PS 1.5.3.1 theme default

When i select 2 or 3 products to compare, the comparison page shows "There are no products selected for comparison".please give me a solution. thank you

After update from 1.4.9.0 to 1.5.3.1 comparison stopped work for me as well.

 

I discovered that 1.5.3.1 use 2 data base tables to make comparator work properly:

- ps_compare,

- ps_compare_product,

 

1.4.9.0 use ps_compare_product only.

 

Solution which is working for me :

 

- login to phpmyadmin

- make data base backup

- delete ps_compare_product

- craete 2 new tables with new 1.5.3.1 structure:

 

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `ps_compare` (
 `id_compare` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 `id_customer` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (`id_compare`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `ps_compare_product` (
 `id_compare` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
 `id_product` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
 `date_add` datetime NOT NULL,
 `date_upd` datetime NOT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (`id_compare`,`id_product`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

 

 

Probably updater bug.

Hello, I have a different problem. In PS 1.5.4.1. After selecting 2 products and clicking on Compare button, it gives 404 error. It says Page not available.

 

I've been all day checking what could be the problem, a wrong redirection maybe? I have no idea, because comparing with the files of my old version the code changed a lot.

 

Any help?

Hi guys, 

I have same problem with comparison, but I think it is not bug, it is only problem with javascript that is very slow without performance optimization.

 

Try this:

- select 2-4 products (as you wish)

- wait 20-30 seconds

- click on compare button

 

You will see it is working now

I have v.1.6.0.9 and I have problem where my product comparison images are missing.

I've regenerated images with no prevail.
Any suggestions?

 

DId you set your number of products to compare to 0? If you did the module won't show anything. Did you change any CSS where you targeted any classes that help show the images? it sounds like a CSS issue or an issue in how you set up your module's preferences.

I'm in version 1.6.1.4 and having an issue with Product Comparison not working on pages where the URLs have been changed for SEO reasons, in a controller somewhere for subcategories to show in the category.

 

Does anyone know how to use a modified URL to get the one for the product?

 

Anything I can do that will update the product URLs?
