How to add Threads Feed to a BigCommerce store

Embed Threads Feed on BigCommerce

01

Create a Threads Feed app for BigCommerce on Common Ninja

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

02

Save the Threads Feed app

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

When you're ready to add the Threads Feed app to your BigCommerce 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 BigCommerce store.

04

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

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

Why Use This Widget

Use the Threads Feed widget when your brand is active on Threads and you want that ongoing conversation to appear on your site. Many visitors never see your social posts unless they already follow you, so embedding the feed exposes them to more of your voice, humor, and insights. This is useful for creators, media brands, and companies that rely on real time commentary. It keeps your site fresh automatically as new posts appear, and encourages visitors to follow you on Threads where you can continue the relationship. Integrating the feed also shows that your brand is present in newer social spaces, not stuck in older channels only.
