Comparsion table

1. Adding a comparison table layout like the example you gave is something that can easily be done with a page builder since page builders are made to help you create custom layouts like this. Additionally, please note that the plugin you mention above is a Elementor & WPBakery Page Builder Addon, meaning it requires using a page builder to accomplish the layout.

2. Site Reviews currently provides a single rating field. It also allows you to assign reviews to pages/products/posts/etc., and to categories.

When a review is assigned to a page, a meta_key is stored on that page which contains the average rating of the page. Every time a new review is assigned to the page, the average rating value is updated. Additionally, a page ranking value is also assigned to the page, this ranking number is determined using a Bayesian algorithm, the same algorithm that is used by IMDB to rank films.

This means that you can use these meta_values to sort your pages by average rating, or by rank.

The meta_key to sort by average rating is _glsr_average
The meta_key to sort by by rank is _glsr_ranking

Here is an illustration that explains why sorting by rank may sometimes be better than sorting by average rating:

To learn more about using these meta_keys for sorting your assigned pages, please see the “How do I order pages with assigned reviews by rating or ranking?” topic on the Help > FAQ page.

3. Many page builders allow you to create comparison tables, and they usually allow you to sort the columns using a meta_key. In this case, you would use one of the two provided meta_keys to sort.

A quick google search provides this example: https://theplusaddons.com/elementor/widgets/table/

4. As previously stated, Site Reviews provides a single rating field. While it is possible to add your own custom fields, this is not actively supported so you would be on your own to implement it. However, I have created a code example which should help you get started: https://pastebin.com/4fvKErcp

Also, Site Reviews provides a glsr_star_rating() helper function (see the Help > Functions page) which allows to to render the stars for a provided average rating. This helper function is useful to use in your theme templates.

However, if you are using a page builder, you can add the following code in your theme’s functions.php which registers a [site_reviews_rating] shortcode which does the same thing: https://pastebin.com/TFchpaam
