How to add World Clock to a BigCommerce store

Embed World Clock on BigCommerce

01

Create a World Clock app for BigCommerce on Common Ninja

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

02

Save the World Clock app

When you're done creating the World Clock 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 World Clock Embed Code

When you're ready to add the World Clock 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 World Clock Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s World Clock 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 World Clock 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 World Clock 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 World Clock widget when your audience or team is spread across time zones and timing matters for coordination. Showing multiple clocks with city labels on your site or dashboard makes scheduling calls, webinars, and releases easier. This is important for remote companies, global communities, and services that operate across regions. Instead of constantly converting times, visitors can reference the clock and adjust their plans. A world clock also reinforces the idea that your brand is truly international. It turns abstract time differences into a simple, always available reference that reduces mistakes and missed meetings.
