How to add What's New Popup to a Cratejoy store

Embed What's New Popup on Cratejoy

01

Create a What's New Popup app for Cratejoy on Common Ninja

First, create a Cratejoy What's New Popup app on Common Ninja. On the apps catalog, find the What's New Popup and enter the Editor.

02

Save the What's New Popup app

When you're done creating the What's New Popup 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 What's New Popup Embed Code

When you're ready to add the What's New Popup app to your Cratejoy 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 Cratejoy store.

04

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

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

Why Use This Widget

Use the What’s New Popup widget when you ship updates frequently and want users to notice improvements without searching for release notes. A popup gives a dedicated space to highlight new features, fixes, or announcements right when visitors return to your site or app. This keeps customers informed, improves feature adoption, and reduces support questions about changes. It is especially valuable for SaaS products, tools, and platforms that evolve quickly. With a structured list of updates and clear phrasing, users can understand what changed in seconds. The popup format ensures visibility while still allowing you to keep the rest of the interface clean, creating a smooth balance between communication and browsing.
