[compare:] Short Tag

Built-in Feature

The [compare:] short tag displays a table listing the Custom Fields of each item side-by-side for comparison.

Note: [compare:] renders a widget "Compare Item Fields Widget" (<div class="evo_widget widget widget_core_item_fields_compare">...</div>) and cannot appear inside a paragraph. (b2evolution will automatically move it out of the paragraph).

Syntax Breakdown

[compare: Item IDs ]

Item IDs: comma-delimited list of IDs of items to compare.

You can use the following special values in lieu of item IDs:

  • $this$: to designate the current Item
  • $parent$: to designate the parent of the current Item

Samples

  • [compare:1,2,4,8] will compare the custom fields of items with IDs 1, 2, 4 and 8.
  • [compare:$this$,$parent$] will compare the current Item with its parent.
