protected $_catalogProductCompareList;

public function __construct(
    \Magento\Catalog\Model\Product\Compare\ItemFactory $compareItemFactory,
    \Magento\Catalog\Model\Product\Compare\ListCompare $catalogProductCompareList,

Magento – Compare products using a checkbox

In order to add a product to compare you need the following url:

<?php echo Mage::getBaseUrl() ?>index.php/catalog/product_compare/index/items/' + productID + '/uenc/'

You can add multiple items to compare at the same time by creating a comma seperated string of the product id's.

It would look something like this:

<?php echo Mage::getBaseUrl() ?>index.php/catalog/product_compare/index/items/10,23,456,8/uenc/'

Based on this information you can set this up with checkboxes by doing the following:

create a <form>
create checkboxes for each item you want to be able to compare
set the id of each checkbox to the id of the product
add some js to the onclick event of the checkbox that adds the id to a comma separated sring

onSubmit have the form action go here:

<?php echo Mage::getBaseUrl() ?>index.php/catalog/product_compare/index/items/' + prdString + '/uenc/'

Magento – Compare Products link does not work

From the comments, it looks like your Magento DB does not have report_compared_product_index table.

Import the following SQL to create this table structure in your DB.

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `report_compared_product_index` (
`index_id` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL COMMENT 'Index Id',
  `visitor_id` int(10) unsigned DEFAULT NULL COMMENT 'Visitor Id',
  `customer_id` int(10) unsigned DEFAULT NULL COMMENT 'Customer Id',
  `product_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL COMMENT 'Product Id',
  `store_id` smallint(5) unsigned DEFAULT NULL COMMENT 'Store Id',
  `added_at` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000-00-00 00:00:00' COMMENT 'Added At'
) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COMMENT='Reports Compared Product Index Table' AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;

ALTER TABLE `report_compared_product_index`
 ADD PRIMARY KEY (`index_id`), ADD UNIQUE KEY `UNQ_REPORT_COMPARED_PRODUCT_INDEX_VISITOR_ID_PRODUCT_ID` (`visitor_id`,`product_id`), ADD UNIQUE KEY `UNQ_REPORT_COMPARED_PRODUCT_INDEX_CUSTOMER_ID_PRODUCT_ID` (`customer_id`,`product_id`), ADD KEY `IDX_REPORT_COMPARED_PRODUCT_INDEX_STORE_ID` (`store_id`), ADD KEY `IDX_REPORT_COMPARED_PRODUCT_INDEX_ADDED_AT` (`added_at`), ADD KEY `IDX_REPORT_COMPARED_PRODUCT_INDEX_PRODUCT_ID` (`product_id`);

I hope this will help you.
