How to modify Compareder app settings to show only specific fields?

Shopify Apps

Topic summary

Topic: Modifying a third‑party product comparison app (Compareder) to display only specific fields.

  • The store owner wants the comparison table to show only two fields: “Afbeelding” (Image) and “Naam” (Name), and hide “Variant title” and “Product tags.” They use product meta fields (custom product attributes) for additional info and couldn’t find theme code to change this.

  • Constraint: Compareder’s settings require selecting at least five fields for comparison, conflicting with the desired minimal setup.

  • Assets: A collection link was provided for testing; a screenshot was shared but not central to understanding.

  • Response: As Compareder is a third‑party app, Shopify support advised contacting the app developer directly via support@coderagon.com and referenced the app’s listing page. General marketing resources (Shopify blog on ecommerce strategies) were also suggested.

  • Outcome/Next steps: No in‑thread solution; action item is to reach out to Compareder’s support for configuration options or customization.

  • Status: Unresolved; discussion remains open pending app developer guidance.

Hi all,

I’ve installed an app called compareder so that visitors on the website can easily compare products within the same collection.

The only thing is that within the settings of the app it’s required to pick at least five fields for the product comparison. But I only want to show 2 of them: ‘Afbeelding’ and ‘Naam’. I’m using product meta fields to show all the additional information.

So I want to hide or remove the fields: ‘Variant title’ and ’ Product tags’. I thought that i could maybe adjust this somewhere in the code of this theme, but I can’t find where to do this.

Hello @daisyweber !

Since this is a third party app, I won’t be able to advise you on this directly, however I had a look on the app listing for Compareder and I found that you can get support by reaching out to them on their email address support@coderagon.com. This would be the best way to look into this as they know their app best.

I love that you’re utilizing this app to allow customers to compare products - this is a great way to increase sales as they are able to easily cross check other products and make a decision. For some other ways to increase sales you can check out our Shopify Blog article on Ecommerce Marketing Strategies - if offers some great tips along with examples and other app suggestions to realise the strategies.

I would be very interested to hear a little more about your business and products also, just to see if I can offer any other advice here!
