How to add Order Form to a SamCart store

Embed Order Form on SamCart

01

Create a Order Form widget for SamCart on Common Ninja

First, create a SamCart Order Form widget on Common Ninja. On the widgets catalog, find the Order Form and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Order Form widget

When you're done creating the Order Form 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 Order Form Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Order Form widget to your SamCart 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 widget embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your SamCart store.

04

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

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

Why Use This Widget

Use the Order Form widget when you sell products or services that are better handled through custom requests than standard ecommerce carts. It allows customers to specify items, quantities, options, and contact details in a flexible structure tailored to your offering. You can connect submissions to notifications and payment flows so that each request turns into a clear next action. This works especially well for agencies, print shops, catering, B2B packages, made to order goods, and any business that needs more context than a simple add to cart. A well designed order form reduces back and forth communication, speeds up quoting or confirmation, and gives buyers a smooth, guided way to place orders.
