How to add X Feed to a Publii plugin

Embed X Feed on Publii

01

Create a X Feed website for Publii on Common Ninja

First, create a Publii X Feed website on Common Ninja. On the websites catalog, find the X Feed and enter the Editor.

02

Save the X Feed website

When you're done creating the X Feed website, 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 X Feed Embed Code

When you're ready to add the X Feed website to your Publii plugin, 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 website embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Publii plugin.

04

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

Next, go to your Publii plugin 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 Publii’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the X Feed Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s X Feed website on your Publii plugin.

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 X Feed website on your Publii website. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Publii plugin’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 X Feed website to your Publii plugin. You can do this by putting it straight into your Publii plugin's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the X Feed widget when you want to keep your latest updates visible on your site and show that your brand is active in real time. Many visitors do not follow you yet, so embedding a live feed helps them see your voice, announcements, and community interactions without leaving the page. This is useful for SaaS products, news driven brands, creators, and events. Auto updates keep the section current, reducing maintenance. Visitors can scan short posts quickly, click into threads, and get a sense of your responsiveness. A clear feed adds social proof, supports transparency, and provides a steady stream of fresh signals that make your site feel alive rather than static.
