Possible with Pods?

    I am trying to recreate a plugin I have used for Product Features (wooThemes) which is no longer updated, and I’m trying to figure out if this is even possible. I’ve mainly used Pods in the past to create custom post types and display them.

    What I would like to do is create a list of product features, which can be selected on a products page by the admin (like, water-based, silicone based, glass bottle, plastic bottle, clear, colored, with pump, without pump, etc)

    Each feature would have an icon image and a short description associated with it, and then I would like to display on each products page those images and short descriptions, based on which features are selected on the page.

    I figured out how to add a check box list of features to the Product Post type, but I cant wrap my head around how I would then link that to a custom post type that contains the image and short description, and how I would output the selections made.

    Hi @sliquid

    In short, yes it’s possible, however, I’m not sure whether it’s possible through the UI. You most likely need to create some functions to pull the icons etc.

    I can imagine you could create these features as categories/tags or something that have an icon/image field. You can then include then on post types as relationships or simply taxonomies.

    Keep in mind that this does not include adding prices etc. for these features. You can of course add a currency field to the features taxonomy but the actual price calculation is not part of Pods functionality.

    Cheers, Jory
