    Hello, I am trying to figure out how to do something similar to https://wpgeodirectory.com/downloads/compare-listings/ where a listing can have products with prices and attributes in their business listing. Is this possible? So if I had all the same type of businesses they could each list their products and prices and then users could compare closest and best deals. Is this possible and could you help me? Thank you

    Hello,

    you can certainly add the info as Custom Fields.

    Another way of doing it would be to create a CPT for each of the product types. Then each business can add a listing with that product type and you can use the compare feature to compare them.

    Try this:

    Add a custom post type called ‘cars_for_sale’
    Visit the custom fields tab and add the ‘price’ field and save.
    Also in custom fields add “Post Link:Places (or business, your main CPT)
    Visit the Tabs tab and add “Link Posts: Cars”
    Visit the widgets settings and add the GD Compare widget to the sidebar
    Add two car listings linked to the business
    View the business page to see the cars, visit the cars and click compare
