Question 1

What WordPress version do I need?

Accepted Answer

WordPress 5.8 or later. The plugin requires PHP 7.4 or higher.

Question 2

How do I add a price table to a post or page?

Accepted Answer

Use the shortcode [gad_price_table id="YOUR_UPC" size="5" design="design-01"]. You can also use the Gutenberg block, Elementor widget, WPBakery element, Beaver Builder module, or the classic widget in a sidebar.

Question 3

Where do I find the product UPC / ID?

Accepted Answer

Look on the physical product barcode or packaging. You can also search gunammo.deals for the product and copy the UPC from the product page URL.

Question 4

Can I use a search term instead of a UPC?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Use the term attribute: [gad_price_table term="9mm ammo" size="10"]. The API will return the best-matching products.

Question 5

How often are prices updated?

Accepted Answer

Prices are fetched live from the GunAmmo Deals API. Results are cached on your WordPress site for 15 minutes by default (configurable via Cache TTL).

Question 6

Can I customize the colors per table?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every color and font size can be overridden via shortcode attributes (primary_color, accent_color, etc.). The admin settings serve as defaults.

Question 7

What are the 10 design presets?

Accepted Answer

Signal Grid, Glass Panel, Midnight Ledger, Ammo Tag, Minimal Commerce, Editorial Compare, Neon Pulse, Tactical Slate, Premium Card Stack, and Radar Board. Preview all designs from the plugin settings page.

Question 8

How does AvantLink affiliate rewriting work?

Accepted Answer

When enabled, any deal link containing your configured domain (e.g. avantlink.com) will have its p (campaign) and pw (publisher) parameters replaced with your own values. This lets you earn affiliate commissions on every click.

Question 9

What are merchant tracking rules?

Accepted Answer

Per-store UTM or conversion parameter rules. Format: domain.com|param=value&param2=value. Supports tokens like {term}, {store}, {design}, and {page_host} that get replaced automatically.

Question 10

Does the plugin track clicks?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every deal button click is logged with the search term, store name, design, destination URL, and referring page. View analytics from the dedicated dashboard in your WordPress admin.

Question 11

Can I export analytics data?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The analytics dashboard has a CSV Export button that downloads all click data filtered by your selected date range.

Question 12

Is the table mobile-friendly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. On screens narrower than 980px the four-column table collapses into stacked cards. A second breakpoint at 480px further reduces padding and font sizes for small phones.

Question 13

The table looks the same after updating — how do I clear cache?

Accepted Answer

The plugin uses file-modification timestamps for CSS versioning, so browser cache is busted automatically on every plugin update. If you still see old styles, purge any server-side cache (e.g. WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache, Cloudflare) and hard-refresh the page (Ctrl+Shift+R).

Question 14

Does the plugin work with Elementor?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A native Elementor widget is included. Search for "GunAmmo Price Table" in the Elementor panel. All shortcode attributes are available as widget controls.

Question 15

Does the plugin work with WPBakery / Visual Composer?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A WPBakery element is registered automatically. Find it under the "Content" category in the WPBakery editor.

Question 16

Does the plugin work with Beaver Builder?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A Beaver Builder module is included under the "GunAmmo Deals" group in the module panel.

Question 17

What happens when I uninstall the plugin?

Accepted Answer

All plugin settings are removed from the options table and the click-tracking database table is dropped. No residual data is left behind.

Question 18

The API returns no results — what should I check?

Accepted Answer

Verify the UPC or search term matches an actual product on gunammo.deals. Check that your API key is entered correctly in settings. Ensure your server can make outbound HTTPS requests (some hosts block wp_remote_post).

Question 19

Can I show more than one table on the same page?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each shortcode generates an independent table with its own ID. You can place as many as you need — each one fetches and caches data separately.

Question 20

How do I change the "View Deal" button text?

Accepted Answer

Set button_text in the shortcode: [gad_price_table id="..." button_text="Check Price"]. Or change the default for all tables in Settings > GunAmmo Price Tables > Button Text.
