How to add RSS Feed to a Shopify store

Embed RSS Feed on Shopify

01

Create a RSS Feed app for Shopify on Common Ninja

First, create a Shopify RSS Feed app on Common Ninja. On the apps catalog, find the RSS Feed and enter the Editor.

02

Save the RSS Feed app

When you're done creating the RSS Feed 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 RSS Feed Embed Code

When you're ready to add the RSS Feed app to your Shopify 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 Shopify store.

04

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

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

Why Use This Widget

Use the RSS Feed widget when you want your site to stay updated automatically with content from one or more sources. Whether you publish a blog, curate industry news, or share partner updates, an RSS feed brings new posts into a structured section without manual copying. This keeps pages fresh and increases the chance that returning visitors find something new. It is ideal for homepages, resource hubs, and niche communities that depend on regular updates. The feed format helps users scan headlines quickly and click into what matters. By surfacing ongoing content streams, you strengthen relevance, improve engagement, and reduce the work required to maintain active looking pages.
