How to add Product Blobs to a Shift4Shop store

Embed Product Blobs on Shift4Shop

01

Create a Product Blobs app for Shift4Shop on Common Ninja

First, create a Shift4Shop Product Blobs app on Common Ninja. On the apps catalog, find the Product Blobs and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Product Blobs app

When you're done creating the Product Blobs 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 Product Blobs Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Product Blobs app to your Shift4Shop 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 Shift4Shop store.

04

Paste the code to your Shift4Shop website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Shift4Shop 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 Shift4Shop’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Product Blobs Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Product Blobs app on your Shift4Shop 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 Product Blobs app on your Shift4Shop 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 Shift4Shop 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 Product Blobs app to your Shift4Shop store. You can do this by putting it straight into your Shift4Shop store's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Product Blobs widget when you want to highlight specific items in a way that stands out from regular grids and lists. The blob style draws the eye and frames each product as a featured choice, which is perfect for best sellers, new arrivals, or curated picks. You can present key details like name, price, and a short benefit line while keeping the design playful and modern. This works well on homepages, collection pages, and landing pages where you want to direct attention to a small set of important products. By giving these items a unique visual treatment, you gently guide visitors toward them and support faster, more confident purchase decisions.
