How to add Image Carousel to a Publii plugin

Embed Image Carousel on Publii

01

Create a Image Carousel website for Publii on Common Ninja

First, create a Publii Image Carousel website on Common Ninja. On the websites catalog, find the Image Carousel and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Image Carousel website

When you're done creating the Image Carousel website, 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 Carousel Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Image Carousel website to your Publii plugin, 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 website embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Publii plugin.

04

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

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

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 Carousel website on your Publii website. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Publii plugin’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 Carousel website to your Publii plugin. You can do this by putting it straight into your Publii plugin's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Image Carousel widget when you have several visuals that all support the same message but limited space on the page. Instead of stacking images in a long column that pushes key content downward, the carousel rotates them in a compact frame that invites interaction. You can highlight product angles, service examples, testimonials with portraits, or step by step sequences. This improves the perceived quality of your design and keeps attention focused on the area that matters. It is especially useful for hero sections, above the fold areas, and landing pages where you want to communicate richness without overwhelming visitors with too many elements at once.
