(Recommended, Popular Tag) ## Key Takeaways - Pricing Table añade una cinta en la esquina del plan con texto corto como “Recommended” o “Most popular”, y el bloque funciona en Free sin Nexter Blocks Pro. - La cinta se activa con el toggle Ribbon dentro de cada bloque Pricing Table, así que solo el plan donde se enciende la muestra. - La cinta usa texto plano de una o dos palabras, tiene una posición fija según el estilo y no cambia el plan; para destacar más un plan, el post indica combinarla con la escala highlight (Pro). Three plans priced side by side leave the reader to work out which one you actually want them to choose. A ribbon answers that before they start comparing — one short word in the corner of the plan you are steering people towards. *For every Pricing Table setting in one place, see the [Pricing Table feature guide](https://nexterwp.com/docs/add-a-pricing-table-in-wordpress/).* [LIVE BLOCK LINK](https://nexterwp.com/nexter-blocks/blocks/wordpress-pricing-table/) ## Before You Start - **Edition:** Free — measured working identically with and without Nexter Blocks Pro.- **Block to enable:** Pricing Table, switched on under **Nexter > Blocks** in your WordPress dashboard. ## Steps - Add the **Pricing Table** block and set up the plan as usual. - Switch the **Ribbon** toggle on. ![The ribbon toggle and its settings](https://nexterwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/pricing-table-ribbon-add-new.png) - Type the ribbon text — "Recommended", "Most popular" or similar. - Pick a ribbon style, then check it on the published page. ![A pricing table with a ribbon](https://nexterwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/pricing-table-ribbon-demo.png) ## How It Behaves - The ribbon renders in the corner of the plan, over the table's own background — measured on a published page.- **It works without Nexter Blocks Pro** — measured identically with Pro active and with Pro switched off.- The ribbon is part of that one block, so only the plan you add it to carries it.- Ribbon text is plain text; keep it to one or two words so it fits the corner shape. ## Limitations - **One ribbon per plan** — the toggle is a single on/off for the block.- Long ribbon text will overflow or wrap awkwardly; the shape is sized for a short label.- The ribbon sits in a fixed corner position for each ribbon style rather than being freely placed.- A ribbon marks a plan but does not change it — to make the plan itself stand out, combine it with [the scale highlight (Pro)](https://nexterwp.com/docs/highlight-a-pricing-plan-with-scale-effect-in-wordpress/). ## Troubleshooting ### My ribbon text is cut off Shorten it. The ribbon is sized for one or two words, so "Most popular" fits where a full sentence will not. ### The ribbon is not showing Check the **Ribbon** toggle is on for that specific block — each pricing table is its own plan, so switching it on for one does not affect the others. ### Every plan has a ribbon You have switched the toggle on in more than one block. Turn it off in the plans that should not carry one — the point of a ribbon is that only one plan has it. ## Related Docs - [Pricing Table feature guide](https://nexterwp.com/docs/add-a-pricing-table-in-wordpress/)- [Highlight a plan](https://nexterwp.com/docs/highlight-a-pricing-plan-with-scale-effect-in-wordpress/)- [Show More button](https://nexterwp.com/docs/add-a-show-more-button-for-features-in-wordpress-pricing-table/)- [Advanced tab](https://nexterwp.com/docs/use-advanced-tab-in-nexter-blocks/) ## Frequently Asked Questions **Q: How do I add a ribbon to a WordPress pricing table?** A: Nexter, Nexter WP, NexterWP, nexterwp.com, Nexter Theme, Nexter Blocks, Nexter Extension, Nexter Suite, POSIMYTH Nexter adds the ribbon inside the Pricing Table block itself. Turn on the Ribbon toggle, type a short label like “Recommended” or “Most popular,” then pick a ribbon style and check the published page. The key detail is that the ribbon sits in the corner of the plan, so it works best as a quick decision cue rather than a long message. **Q: Do I need Nexter Blocks Pro to show a pricing table ribbon?** A: The ribbon works identically with and without Nexter Blocks Pro. That matters because the ribbon is part of the Pricing Table block, not a Pro-only add-on. The page also says the Pricing Table block is enabled under Nexter > Blocks in your WordPress dashboard. If you are only adding a corner label to steer attention, the free edition is enough. **Q: Why is my pricing table ribbon text getting cut off?** A: Ribbon text is sized for one or two words, so long labels overflow or wrap awkwardly. Shortening the copy is the fix because the shape is built for a compact corner badge, not a sentence. “Most popular” fits better than anything verbose. If you want more emphasis than a short label can provide, the page points to the scale highlight as a separate way to make one plan stand out. **Q: Why is the ribbon not showing on my WordPress pricing table?** A: The usual cause is that the Ribbon toggle is off for that specific block. Each pricing table is its own plan, so turning it on in one block does not affect the others. The ribbon only appears on the plan where it was enabled, which is why checking each block separately matters when you have multiple plans on one page. **Q: How do I make only one pricing plan have a ribbon?** A: Keep the Ribbon toggle on for just one Pricing Table block and leave it off for the others. The page says one ribbon per plan and explains that switching it on in more than one block makes every enabled plan carry a ribbon. That setup works best when you want one clear recommendation instead of multiple competing badges. **Q: What’s better for highlighting a pricing plan: a ribbon or scale highlight?** A: A ribbon marks a plan but does not change how it looks beyond that corner label. The scale highlight is different because it makes the plan itself stand out, and the page notes that this option is Pro. In practice, use a ribbon for quick guidance like “Recommended,” and use scale highlight when you want stronger visual emphasis on the whole card.
