WP: Product mapping, including WP-posts

Submitted by tisbris on Sun, 2011-08-21 17:57 in

Hi David

I planning to use this plugin on a niche site, and i was wondering if it possible to implement WP-posts instead of PT product image/description.

It would be great if i could make WP-posts, and then make a product mapping, where the link to the WP-post could be enter during product mapping.

Then the result would look like the 'external_prices', but work different, because the product comes from within PT installation.

The benefit of this is that is easier to make a great product descriptions and hopefully use some of the WP plugins inside the posts...

Hi Brian,

That's basically the intention of the shortcodes; you can manually create a product page as a WordPress post, and anywhere you want within the body of the page you can call in the price comparison table using;

[pto prices="Product Name"]

Regarding search, if the intention is to manually create posts for all products it would probably best to leave search to WordPress rather than displaying the plugin search form...

Cheers,
David.
