How to add Image Accordion to a Carrd website

Embed Image Accordion on Carrd

01

Create a Image Accordion plugin for Carrd on Common Ninja

First, create a Carrd Image Accordion plugin on Common Ninja. On the plugins catalog, find the Image Accordion and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Image Accordion plugin

When you're done creating the Image Accordion 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 Image Accordion Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Image Accordion plugin to your Carrd website, 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 Carrd website.

04

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

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

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 Image Accordion plugin on your Carrd 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 Carrd website’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 Image Accordion plugin to your Carrd website. You can do this by putting it straight into your Carrd website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Image Accordion widget when you have several large visuals but limited vertical space to show them. The accordion stacks images in panels that expand on click or tap, allowing one item to take focus while others stay partially visible. This format is ideal for presenting categories, steps, or themes that belong together. Visitors quickly see that more content exists and feel invited to explore each panel. It works for portfolios, product feature groups, travel destinations, and storytelling sequences. The interaction makes the page feel dynamic while still remaining simple to understand, and it helps keep your design compact and organized even with heavy visual content.
