Hello,

I am looking for advice on the best way to add content as both a custom post type that users can view independently (with a link to a product) and also add this content to an individual Woocommerce product page. There are approximately 300 products that these would apply to.

The content I am needing to add are Application Notes that talk about specific applications for the products. Prospects often will search for a product based on their need or application without knowing the product name so having these pages by themselves is important. The Application Note would have to have a link to the product page.

Then on the product page there should be links back to the Application Note(s) as there may be more than one Application Note per product.

For the Product page my first thought was to create the Application Notes and tag them with the product name. Then using the Woo Templates, add a post loop to the Product page that would only show those posts that are tagged with the product. Would this approach work and if so, how would the variable be defined to show the matching posts?

Thanks for any advice.
Kevin
