Buttons might seem like a small thing, but they can do a lot of heavy lifting on your website. Buttons are one of the simplest ways to guide visitors toward the action you want them to take.
From leading people to your product page to prompting them to read more or sign up, a good-looking button can make all the difference. The good news is you don’t need coding skills to design them.
WordPress has built-in options, and with a little help from a block plugin, you can get even more control over how your buttons look and feel.
In this post, I’ll walk you through three easy methods to create stylish buttons in WordPress.
We’ll start with the default editor, move on to a plugin that offers more flexibility, and finish with a bonus method for adding buttons inside tables. Let’s jump in.

Com o Block Editor
✅Method 1: Using the Default Buttons Block
WordPress has a built-in Buttons block that works fine in most cases. You’ll find it inside the block editor when you click the little (+) icon and search for “Buttons.”
When the button block is inserted, it will tell you to add text inside the button.
Once you insert the block, you can add one or multiple buttons side-by-side. Each button can be customized directly from the right sidebar. You’ll find options for:
- Button width (full or auto)
- Text and background color
- Padding and alignment
- Border radius (for rounded corners)
It’s a good starting point, especially if you stick with a minimalist design.⚠️But you’ll quickly hit a limit if you need more styling options like hover effects, gradients, or responsive spacing.
🛠️ Dica profissional: Want a perfectly rounded button? Set the border radius to 100 for a pill-style button.
✅Method 2: Using the Buttons Block by Ultimate Blocks
If you want more control without writing CSS, Blocos definitivos is a fantastic Gutenberg plugin to try. It adds an enhanced Bloco de botões that’s built with customization in mind.
Installing Ultimate Blocks is an easy task.

🎯 Dica profissional: Use contrasting hover colors to create a satisfying visual response when users interact with your buttons.
🧩 Bonus: Adding Buttons Inside a Table
Sometimes you need buttons inside a layout, like a pricing table or feature comparison. That’s where a block-based table plugin like Tableberg shines.

With Tableberg, each table cell acts like a mini canvas. That means you can drop the dedicated Button block right inside a cell. You’re not stuck with plain text anymore—you can add CTA buttons like “Buy Now,” “See Details,” or “Try Free” directly into your pricing rows.
The Button features of the Tableberg are the same as the Button of the Ultimate Blocks.
Want to customize the button’s look inside the table? No problem. You can change the border radius, padding, and even add icons—all from within the block editor.
🛠️ Dica profissional: Combine your button with a star rating or a ribbon inside the same row for extra visual impact and better conversions.
Considerações finais!
Designing beautiful buttons in WordPress doesn’t require custom CSS or a developer’s help. With the native Buttons block, the enhanced version from Ultimate Blocks, and the flexibility of tools like Tableberg, you can build fully interactive layouts that look great and work across all devices.
No more plain links or outdated shortcodes. Now you have full control, right inside the editor.
