Why People Love Elfsight

A product page can tell shoppers what an item does, but video can show them much more. With Elfsight Video Gallery for OpenCart, you can present demonstrations, tutorials, customer experiences, social videos, launches, and other visual content in one convenient gallery across your storefront.

Build the collection using links from YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Vimeo, Twitch, or a custom source, then shape the experience in the Elfsight editor. Pin videos that deserve extra attention, introduce filters and sorting for larger collections, and let customers keep watching through the mini-player. You can also configure what follows each video to maintain interest after playback ends.

OpenCart’s layout system gives you flexibility over where the gallery appears. Elfsight’s current installation method uses OpenCart’s HTML Content module, which can then be assigned to the required layout and position on your store.

Did you know?

According to Wyzowl’s 2026 research, 85% of people say watching a video has convinced them to buy a product or service.

Give customers a more visual way to discover what your store has to offer – create your Elfsight Video Gallery for OpenCart for free.

How to Add a Video Gallery to OpenCart

You can build your Elfsight Video Gallery and place it on your OpenCart store in a few steps:

  1. Choose a Template: Open the Elfsight editor and select a gallery template that suits your storefront and video content.
  2. Build Your Collection: Add links from YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Vimeo, Twitch, or Custom Source.
  3. Set Up the Gallery: Customize its layout and design, configure filters and sorting, enable the mini-player if needed, and choose your preferred Video Behavior.
  4. Copy the Installation Code: Click “Add to website for free” and copy the code generated for your Video Gallery.
  5. Place It in OpenCart: In your OpenCart admin, go to Extensions → Extensions, select Modules, and create an HTML Content module. Paste the Elfsight code in Source/Code view and enable the module. Then open Design → Layouts, choose the required page layout, add your module to the preferred position, and save the changes.

For stores where you want the same widget on several pages, Elfsight also provides an OpenCart custom-module installation option for versions 2.x and 3.x, with page and position selection from the store settings.

Is Video Gallery an OpenCart extension I need to install?

You don’t have to install a traditional OpenCart extension package just to use the standard Elfsight setup. Create your Video Gallery in the Elfsight editor, copy its installation code, and add it through OpenCart’s built-in HTML Content module. Elfsight also provides an optional custom module for OpenCart 2.x and 3.x if that installation approach is more convenient for your store.

Can I add the Video Gallery widget to a specific OpenCart page?

Yes, OpenCart lets you assign modules to individual layouts, so you can control where the Video Gallery appears. Create an HTML Content module with the Elfsight code, then open Design → Layouts, select the appropriate layout, and add the module to your preferred position.

What video sources does the Elfsight Video Gallery support?

Video Gallery supports YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Vimeo, Twitch, and Custom Source. You can collect content from several supported platforms and present it as one consistent gallery instead of sending shoppers between different channels.

Can I combine videos from different platforms in one gallery?

Yes, Videos from YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Vimeo, Twitch, and custom sources can all be included in the same gallery. This is useful if your demonstrations, customer content, tutorials, social clips, and brand videos are published across several platforms.

Can I upload video files directly to Elfsight?

No, Video Gallery works with video links rather than direct file uploads. Publish or host your content through a supported source first, then add its URL to the Elfsight editor.

Can I make certain videos more prominent?

Yes, you can pin selected videos so they appear at the beginning of your gallery. Use pinning to draw attention to new products, seasonal promotions, popular tutorials, featured customer content, important announcements, or other videos you want shoppers to encounter first.

Can I use filters and sorting in my OpenCart Video Gallery?

Yes, filters and sorting help keep extensive video collections manageable for shoppers. They can be particularly useful when your gallery covers different product groups, tutorials, customer stories, promotions, or types of video content.

Does Video Gallery include a mini-player?

You can enable the mini-player so the active video remains visible while customers continue exploring the page. This helps maintain the viewing experience without forcing shoppers to stay focused on the original gallery position.

What happens when a video ends?

The Video Behavior settings let you control the next step after playback. You can replay the current video, move to the next video, display an end card, or show an end card and then continue to the next video. The end card can feature promotional content pointing shoppers toward a product, special offer, collection, campaign, or another relevant action.
