How to add Instagram Feed to a OpenCart store

Embed Instagram Feed on OpenCart

01

Create a Instagram Feed extension for OpenCart on Common Ninja

First, create a OpenCart Instagram Feed extension on Common Ninja. On the extensions catalog, find the Instagram Feed and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Instagram Feed extension

When you're done creating the Instagram Feed extension, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the Instagram Feed Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Instagram Feed extension to your OpenCart store, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the extension embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your OpenCart store.

04

Paste the code to your OpenCart website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your OpenCart store editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the OpenCart’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Instagram Feed Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Instagram Feed extension on your OpenCart store.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Instagram Feed extension on your OpenCart extension. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your OpenCart store’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Instagram Feed extension to your OpenCart store. You can do this by putting it straight into your OpenCart store's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Instagram Feed widget when your brand expresses itself visually and you want that ongoing story to appear inside your site. Instead of updating image sections manually, you can pull your latest posts into a clean, responsive gallery that always reflects current campaigns, styles, or collections. Visitors see fresh content every time they return, which makes the site feel alive and aligned with your social presence. This works well for fashion, food, travel, design, personal brands, and any business where aesthetics matter. You also create more paths for users to follow you on Instagram, where you can keep nurturing them long after the first visit.
