How to add Accordion to a Shopify store

Embed Accordion on Shopify

01

Create a Accordion app for Shopify on Common Ninja

First, create a Shopify Accordion app on Common Ninja. On the apps catalog, find the Accordion and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Accordion app

When you're done creating the Accordion app, 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 Accordion Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Accordion app to your Shopify 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 app embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Shopify store.

04

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

Next, go to your Shopify 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 Shopify’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Accordion Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Accordion app on your Shopify 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 Accordion app on your Shopify app. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Shopify 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 Accordion app to your Shopify store. You can do this by putting it straight into your Shopify store's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Accordion widget when you have a lot of information and want to keep your pages clean, scannable, and easy to navigate. Collapsible sections let visitors open only the topics that matter to them, which reduces noise and keeps attention focused. This is ideal for FAQs, product details, documentation, policies, and long-form content that would otherwise stretch endlessly down the page. By grouping related items under clear headings, you help users understand the structure of your content and move through it at their own pace. A good accordion improves readability, lowers bounce rates on heavy pages, and makes complex information feel manageable rather than overwhelming.
