If you’re creating a comparison table with multiple products or plans, you’ll want to guide your visitors toward the best choice, without shouting.
A simple ribbon or badge can do the trick. It adds just enough visual weight to nudge attention where you want it.
Tableberg lets you build tables using blocks inside the WordPress editor. The free version gets the basics right, but if you want to add a ribbon to highlight your top pick, you’ll need the Pro version. That’s where the Ribbon block comes in. It’s built for this exact purpose.
In this quick guide, I’ll walk you through how to build a product table and mark your top choice with a clean, standout ribbon—no extra design tools or shortcodes involved.
Create Beautiful Tables
With Block Editor
Step 1: Install Tableberg (Free Version)
Start by installing the free version of Tableberg from the WordPress Plugin Repository:
-
Navigate to Plugins
-
Click Add Plugins
-
Search for “Tableberg”
-
Click Install, then Activate
Once activated, you can use the “Tableberg” block in any post or page to build tables.
⚠️ Note: The Ribbon block used to highlight a product (as shown later in this tutorial) is only available in Tableberg Pro. If you want to use ribbons or badges to feature a product, you must upgrade to Tableberg Pro. You can also follow the instructions on how to activate the pro version.
Step 2: Create a Comparison Table Or Select from Template Library.
Add a Tableberg block to your post or page. You can select one from the template library or set up your product rows however you like. I’ve selected one from the template library.
Add your data after inserting the table template. Keep the layout easy to scan. Don’t overpack features—let the design breathe.
Step 3: Add a Ribbon to Your Top Pick
Here comes the highlight.
Pick the product you want to recommend (just one works best). Then:
-
Click inside that product’s row or cell
-
Use the Ribbon block from Tableberg Pro
-
Add your label text (e.g. 🏆 Recommended)
-
Choose a color that contrasts nicely—purple, gold, or something brand-aligned
-
Position it where it’s most visible and looks more attractive.
And that’s it. Now your best option pops out of the table naturally.
💡 Pro Tips for Maximum Impact!
-
Only highlight one product to maintain clarity
-
Combine Ribbons with bold pricing or unique feature tags
-
Use contrasting colors for the ribbon to ensure it pops
-
Preview on mobile to ensure responsiveness and readability
