How to add Back to Top Button to a CMS Max store

Embed Back to Top Button on CMS Max

01

Create a Back to Top Button add-on for CMS Max on Common Ninja

First, create a CMS Max Back to Top Button add-on on Common Ninja. On the add-ons catalog, find the Back to Top Button and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Back to Top Button add-on

When you're done creating the Back to Top Button add-on, 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 Back to Top Button Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Back to Top Button add-on to your CMS Max 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 add-on embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your CMS Max store.

04

Paste the code to your CMS Max website’s HTML field.

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

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your CMS Max 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 Back to Top Button add-on to your CMS Max store. You can do this by putting it straight into your CMS Max store's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Back to Top Button widget when your pages are long and you want navigation to feel light instead of tiring. On content heavy layouts, especially on mobile, scrolling all the way back up can be annoying and may discourage further exploration. A simple button that appears after the user scrolls makes it clear they can jump instantly to the top navigation, search, or main call to action. This improves perceived usability, reduces friction, and supports better engagement with the rest of your site. It is particularly valuable for blogs, documentation, ecommerce catalogs, one page sites, and any experience where visitors naturally scroll through many sections.
