How to add Coupon Popup to a XenForo community

Embed Coupon Popup on XenForo

01

Create a Coupon Popup plugin for XenForo on Common Ninja

First, create a XenForo Coupon Popup plugin on Common Ninja. On the plugins catalog, find the Coupon Popup and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Coupon Popup plugin

When you're done creating the Coupon Popup plugin, 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 Coupon Popup Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Coupon Popup plugin to your XenForo community, 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 plugin embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your XenForo community.

04

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

Next, go to your XenForo community 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 XenForo’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Coupon Popup Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Coupon Popup plugin on your XenForo community.

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 Coupon Popup plugin on your XenForo plugin. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your XenForo community’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 Coupon Popup plugin to your XenForo community. You can do this by putting it straight into your XenForo community's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Coupon Popup widget when you want to capture attention for a promotion and turn that moment into a conversion opportunity. A popup can appear based on timing, scrolling, or exit intent, letting you deliver discounts exactly when visitors are most likely to hesitate. This is great for first time offers, cart recovery, and limited time campaigns. By combining a clear coupon with an optional email capture, you can grow your list while improving sales. The key value is focus: the visitor sees one strong offer without distractions. When designed with concise copy and a simple action, coupon popups reduce drop off and help convert users who might otherwise leave without buying.
