How to add Glossary to a X-Cart store

Embed Glossary on X-Cart

01

Create a Glossary app for X-Cart on Common Ninja

First, create a X-Cart Glossary app on Common Ninja. On the apps catalog, find the Glossary and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Glossary app

When you're done creating the Glossary 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 Glossary Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Glossary app to your X-Cart 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 X-Cart store.

04

Paste the code to your X-Cart website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your X-Cart 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 X-Cart’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Glossary Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Glossary app on your X-Cart 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 Glossary app on your X-Cart 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 X-Cart 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 Glossary app to your X-Cart store. You can do this by putting it straight into your X-Cart store's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Glossary widget when your site uses specialized terms, acronyms, or jargon that newcomers may not understand. Centralizing definitions in an interactive glossary with search and optional images helps visitors learn the language of your domain without leaving the site. This is essential for technical products, medical content, finance, education, and niche communities. Clear terminology lowers the barrier to entry and reduces confusion in the rest of your content. Over time, a good glossary becomes a reference that gives your brand authority and improves the experience for both new and returning users who need quick reminders.
