Wishlist Buttons & Placement

Using theme button styling

Let the wishlist action speak the same visual language as the rest of your store, so saving a favourite feels like a seamless part of the WooCommerce journey.

Why use your theme’s button styling?

Your WooCommerce theme already establishes a visual rhythm for actions such as Add to Cart. Enabling theme button styling lets GoScript Advanced Wishlist for WooCommerce join that rhythm, helping the wishlist control feel instantly familiar while still giving customers a purposeful save-for-later action.

1. Enable theme button styling

The setting is available alongside the plugin’s own Button style controls, so you can choose the approach that best supports your current design system.

  1. Open Advanced Wishlist → Settings.
  2. Find the Button style section.
  3. Enable Use theme button styling.
  4. Save your changes.
  5. Review the wishlist button on a single product page and a product grid.

2. Choose the right styling approach

Both approaches are valuable. The best choice is the one that makes the button feel clear, consistent, and comfortably at home in your customer’s shopping flow.

Use theme stylingBest when your theme has a strong, polished button system you want the wishlist action to share.
Use plugin stylingBest when you want direct control over presets, colours, border radius, icon size, and saved-state treatment.
Keep saving recognisableWhichever option you choose, retain a clear icon or label so customers immediately understand they can save the product.

3. Check the places customers actually shop

Theme styles can vary across product templates and catalogue cards. A quick review lets you preserve the visual payoff while making sure the wishlist action remains practical everywhere it appears.

  • Review single products, product grids, and any custom product-loop sections.
  • Check normal, hover, and already-saved states.
  • Confirm button text and the selected icon remain readable against theme colours.
  • Check small-screen layouts, especially tightly packed product cards.
  • If a theme treatment does not suit the wishlist control, turn off theme styling and return to the plugin’s focused Button style controls.

Next steps

Continue with a custom placement option or make signed-out account guidance feel just as polished as the save action itself.
