Thanks for replying,
So, I want to set up a very simple membership component ( with three pricing tables as the products).
Then on selection of a price plan - should go - to checkout (Stripe or others). Then to Stripe payment. After that - return and input into a Db.
Sounds easy -eh?! (but I am stuck before I even began).

Seems to me you need to build some basic confidence. I suggest you forget about your payment plans and pricing tables for now and just concentrate on putting a payment through Stripe. Stripe has lots of useful training docs that should help.

Once you've got that working, take the same approach with your database retrieval and update operations. Don't try to put the whole lot together till you've got the individual bits working.

If you try to do too much at once, you'll get overwhelmed.

Hope this helps, MJ
