Steps To Implement Price Table Plugin
In the following procedure, I have implemented the Price Table plugin in the Colorway theme. Although you can implement the same plugin with any of the InkThemes.
- Installing the Colorway theme on the Dashboard. Follow the steps:
Dashboard –>Appearance –>Themes –>Add New –>Install Themes.
- Now type your theme keyword in search bar and click on “Search” button. Follow the screenshot as shown below.
- Install the theme and activate it.
- On next step, add “Price Table” Plugin to your Dashboard. Go to
Dashboard->Plugins->Add New.
- After that a page will appear with heading “Install Plugins” option.
- Write the name of the plugin and just click on “Search Plugin” option.
- A “Search Result” page will appear, select the “Price Table” plugin from the options and then click on “Install Now” button. See in the screenshot below.
- Install the plugin and activate it, as soon as you activate the plugin, “Price Table” plugin option will appear under the Dashboard.
- Now click on “Add New” option.
- Price table page will appear. Mention the title of the page.
Note: This name will not appear on the target page.
- Under the “Add New Price Table” there is an option of “Add Column”, click here to add more columns.
- As soon as you finish up with writing all the features of your product in the columns select the shortcode appeared below the “Featured Image”.
- Paste this shortcode on the Price table page as shown in below in the screenshot.
- After that click on “Publish” button.
- You have to select the shortcode again and paste it on the target page where you want to display the Price Table of your services. Go to
Dashboard–>Pages–>All Pages–>The target page, paste the shortcode there as shown below:

Remember, every time you create a new page in which you want to display the Price Table, you will have to place the shortcode on the same page and after that click on “Publish” button.
