How to add Sticky Video to your website

Embed Sticky Video on Your Website

01

Create a Sticky Video widget for your website on Common Ninja

First, create a Sticky Video widget on Common Ninja. On the widgets catalog, find the Sticky Video and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Sticky Video widget

When you're done creating the Sticky Video widget, 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 Sticky Video Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Sticky Video widget to your website, 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 widget embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your website.

04

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

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

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 Sticky Video widget on your Platform widget. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Platform website’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 Sticky Video widget to your Platform website. You can do this by putting it straight into your Platform website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Sticky Video widget when you want a key video to remain visible while users scroll through related content. As visitors move down the page, the video shrinks into a corner and keeps playing, making sure your explanation, demo, or talk track stays with them. This is useful for long sales pages, tutorials, product documentation, and news articles where the video sets context for what follows. Sticky playback increases completion rates, keeps your message in view, and reduces the chance that users forget or abandon the video once they start reading. It creates a more immersive, connected experience between text and media.
