How to add Image Poll to a ButterCMS website

Embed Image Poll on ButterCMS

01

Create a Image Poll component for ButterCMS on Common Ninja

First, create a ButterCMS Image Poll component on Common Ninja. On the components catalog, find the Image Poll and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Image Poll component

When you're done creating the Image Poll component, 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 Poll Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Image Poll component to your ButterCMS 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 component embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your ButterCMS website.

04

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

Next, go to your ButterCMS 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 ButterCMS’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Image Poll Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Image Poll component on your ButterCMS 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 Poll component on your ButterCMS component. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your ButterCMS 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 Poll component to your ButterCMS website. You can do this by putting it straight into your ButterCMS website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Image Poll widget when you want feedback or votes on options that are best understood visually. Instead of asking people to read labels, you show photos, mockups, or concepts and let them pick what they prefer with a tap. This is powerful for design choices, product variations, branding decisions, menu items, and creative campaigns. Visual voting feels lighter and more fun than long forms, so participation rates are often higher. The results help you see real preferences rather than assumptions, which supports data driven decisions on what to launch, feature, or improve. At the same time, visitors feel involved and heard.
