If you build websites with Elementor, you already know it comes with a built-in Pricing Table widget. It works well for simple pricing sections. But sometimes you may want better layout flexibility, advanced row and column control, which aren’t always available in default widgets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WP Table Builder could be very useful in such situations. It helps you create fully custom tables with more structure and design freedom. You can highlight specific columns, compare multiple plans side by side, manage large tables, and import data via CSV files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though WP Table Builder does not have a direct Elementor widget, you can still add any table to your page using a simple shortcode. In this guide, you will learn how to add a custom pricing table in Elementor using the WP Table Builder plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enabling Responsive Behavior on the Table<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When using WP Table Builder with Elementor, you have two layers of options to make your table mobile responsive. Because each plugin has its own set of mobile responsiveness settings. Let’s see them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Responsive Behavior of WP Table Builder <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Go to the Responsive tab<\/strong>. You will get options to set different widths separately for each device type. Besides, there is a default width already set. You can overwrite it if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, once we have enabled it, the layout for the mobile device type has automatically changed, as you can see in the screenshot below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Responsive<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Responsive Behavior of Elementor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On the Elementor canvas, come to the Advanced tab<\/strong>. Expand the Responsive section<\/strong> by scrolling down the tab. You can hide this table for any respective screensize by toggling the button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Responsive<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You can even switch between different screen sizes and set custom layout settings by using the options as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/strong> As you have already made mobile-responsive settings on the editor of WP Table Builder, you shouldn’t make any changes to this option on Elementor.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Mobile<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Thus, you can make your pricing table mobile responsive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Use WP Table Builder Instead of Elementor\u2019s Pricing Widget?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Elementor\u2019s built-in Pricing Table widget is good for simple pricing cards. It is perfect for small businesses that need to display only two or three plans. When it comes to displaying lots of information with a complex layout, you definitely need WP Table Builder. It’s useful for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

a. Feature Comparison Rows<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you need feature comparison rows, WP Table Builder gives you better control. You can create rows where each feature is clearly listed in the first column, and all plans are compared side by side. This makes it easier for users to scan and understand differences between plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

b. Column Highlighting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For column highlighting, WP Table Builder makes the job simple. You can visually highlight a specific column<\/a> to show the most popular or recommended plan. This works very well in comparison tables where you want to guide users toward one option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

c. Sticky Header<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you need a sticky header, structured tables work better. With large pricing tables, a sticky header keeps the plan names visible while users scroll down. This improves user experience, especially when the table contains many features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Highlight<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

d. Make Rows and Columns Sortable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you have 100+ rows and columns, making the table sortable<\/a> can remarkably increase its user-friendliness. WP Table Builder has this feature, which helps organize table content and make it easier to read. But in Elementor, card-style layouts become long and boring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

e. Mixed Content Inside Cells<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Not only texts. You can add various other types of content to the table, like icons, buttons, images, ribbons, HTML, styled lists, ratings, badges, etc., inside each cell. This gives you more flexibility than a fixed pricing card layout. This can help your content become more readable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

f. LLM-friendly layouts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It is also useful for structured, LLM-friendly layouts<\/a>. Tables are built clearly and organized. Search engines and AI tools can better understand structured data in rows and columns. This can help your content become more readable and machine-friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Common Mistakes to Avoid<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When adding a custom pricing table inside Elementor, many users make small mistakes that can break the layout or design. These mistakes are easy to fix if you know what to watch for. Let\u2019s look at the most common ones so you can avoid them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Common<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

1. Trying to Edit Table Cells Inside Elementor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Once you insert the table using a shortcode, you cannot edit the table content directly inside Elementor. The table is controlled by WP Table Builder. If you try to change text or structure, always go back to WP Table Builder to edit rows, columns, or cell content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Forgetting to Adjust Section Width<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes the table looks squeezed or misaligned. This usually happens because the Elementor section width is set to boxed or has padding. Make sure you adjust the section to full width if needed. Also, check column padding and margins to give the table enough space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Overriding Table Styles with Elementor CSS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you add custom CSS in Elementor, it can sometimes override the table\u2019s original design. This may break borders, spacing, or colors. Be careful when adding global styles. Try to style the table inside WP Table Builder first before applying extra CSS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Using Too Many Nested Containers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Too many nested containers can make the layout heavy and difficult to manage. It can also affect responsiveness. Keep your structure simple. Add the table inside a clean section with minimal containers for better performance and easier control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Creating a custom pricing table does not have to be hard. With WP Table Builder and Elementor, you can build pricing sections that are clear, structured, and powerful. You are not limited to simple cards anymore. Everything is now just at your fingertips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can design detailed comparison tables, highlight your best plan, and organize large feature lists in a clean way. This gives your visitors more clarity and helps them make faster decisions.
