The regular button is a simple link with the plugin default button design. It has a button text and a link source and you can also specify the link target.

The submit type button also uses the plugin default button design. It has been designed for simple PayPal buttons. The PayPal default design is hidden. When you click to the button the PayPal form will be submitted. The s2Member plugin also generates this type of code via shortcode.

The custom button. Selecting this type of button creates only a button wrapper. You should place the button code (HTML or shorcode e.g. WooCommerce) into button content area. You can also add WooCommerce buttons.

11. Tips & Tricks - Change Classic Skin to Clean

Go Pricing has two built-in skins:

When you edit a table you can modify then skin and its gloabal settings under 'Layout & Style' tab.



Each skin has a number of predefined column styles. Column styles also defines the layout of the columns.



Classic and Clean Skin have the same predefined column styles.

When you change the Skin from Classic to Clean you should also modify the column style for each column to preserve its original layout. 

For example:
If your original table uses 'Blue 3' style for their columns, after changing to Clean Skin you should select 'Style 3' for each column to preserve the original layout.

After this change you can select a unique color for the column using the Main Color option under 'General > Layout & Style' section.

13. Tips & Tricks - Custom CSS

Sometimes it's necessary to add some custom CSS code to your tables. Some codes should be applied generally for each table, while others are table specific. That's why we created two options to use custom CSS code for your tables.

Customizing via custom CSS is often the fastest, but not the safest way to achive what you want. 
First, please make sure that it's not possible using the admin options for the changes you need. It's not the safest way because the plugin HTML and CSS structure may change in the future.

A.
 Apply CSS code for each table

  1. Navigate to Go Pricing » General Settings page.
  2. Click to 'Custom CSS' tab.
  3. Paste your code into the textarea.
  4. Save the page.
