How to Set Size Chart Link Type as Text or Button in WooCommerce

The Advanced Product Size Charts for WooCommerce plugin allows you to control how the size chart link appears on product pages. You can display the size chart link as:

• A button, or
• A regular text link

This setting can be applied globally for all size charts or individually for a specific size chart.

Why Change the Size Chart Link Type?

You may want to change the link type when:

• You want the size chart to look more prominent as a button
• You prefer a clean layout using simple text links
• Different products need different size chart styles
• You want consistency with your theme’s design

Option 1: Set Size Chart Link Type Globally

Use this option when you want the same link style across all products.

Steps

1. Go to Product Size Chart → Settings

   Open the Global Settings section

   Find the Size Chart Link Type option

   Choose one of the following:

   • Button
   • Text
2. Save the settings

This link type will now apply to all size charts, unless overridden at the chart level.

Option 2: Set Size Chart Link Type for a Specific Size Chart

Use this option when you want different link styles for different size charts.

Steps

1. Go to Product Size Chart → Size Charts

2. Click Add New or Edit an existing size chart

   Scroll to the Size Chart Settings section

   Locate the Size Chart Link Type option

   Select:

   • Button, or
   • Text
3. Save or update the size chart

This setting will override the global link type for this specific size chart only.

Frontend Display Example

• When Text is selected, the size chart appears as a simple, clickable text link
• When the Button is selected, the size chart appears as a styled button

Important Notes

• Global settings apply to all size charts by default
• Size chart–level settings override global settings
• The link type works with pop-up, tab, and inline display styles
• You can further style buttons or text using Custom CSS

Conclusion

Setting the size chart link type as text or button gives you flexibility to match your store’s design and improve usability. Whether you want a subtle text link or a bold call-to-action button, the plugin lets you control this easily—globally or per size chart.

This small customization helps improve visibility and keeps your product pages consistent and user-friendly.
