How to add Etsy Reviews to a Shorthand story

Embed Etsy Reviews on Shorthand

01

Create a Etsy Reviews widget for Shorthand on Common Ninja

First, create a Shorthand Etsy Reviews widget on Common Ninja. On the widgets catalog, find the Etsy Reviews and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Etsy Reviews widget

When you're done creating the Etsy Reviews widget, 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 Etsy Reviews Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Etsy Reviews widget to your Shorthand story, 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 widget embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Shorthand story.

04

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

Next, go to your Shorthand story 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 Shorthand’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Etsy Reviews Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Etsy Reviews widget on your Shorthand story.

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 Etsy Reviews widget on your Shorthand widget. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Shorthand story’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 Etsy Reviews widget to your Shorthand story. You can do this by putting it straight into your Shorthand story's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Etsy Reviews widget when your products sell on Etsy and you want that marketplace trust to support your brand site. Etsy buyers leave detailed ratings about quality, shipping, and real use, and new visitors rely on those signals to feel safe purchasing from a smaller shop. Embedding Etsy reviews on your product pages keeps research inside your funnel and shows real proof of satisfaction. This is valuable for handmade goods, craft sellers, print on demand stores, and boutique brands expanding beyond Etsy. Clear review displays help visitors scan star ratings and comments quickly. Seeing established Etsy credibility alongside your own story can reduce hesitation, support premium pricing, and increase checkout confidence.
