How to add Social Media Links to a PrestaShop store

Embed Social Media Links on PrestaShop

01

Create a Social Media Links add-on for PrestaShop on Common Ninja

First, create a PrestaShop Social Media Links add-on on Common Ninja. On the add-ons catalog, find the Social Media Links and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Social Media Links add-on

When you're done creating the Social Media Links add-on, 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 Social Media Links Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Social Media Links add-on to your PrestaShop 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 add-on embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your PrestaShop store.

04

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

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

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your PrestaShop 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 Social Media Links add-on to your PrestaShop store. You can do this by putting it straight into your PrestaShop store's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Social Media Links widget when you want to keep your social profiles visible at all times without overcrowding your design. Sticky or fixed buttons along the side or corner of the screen make it clear where visitors can follow you, contact you, or explore more content. This reduces the chance that users overlook small icons in the footer or header. It is especially useful for brands that publish frequently on social channels and treat those spaces as extensions of their main experience. By giving social links a consistent, accessible home, you encourage long term relationships beyond a single visit and turn casual readers into followers who see future updates too.
