How to Embed CircuitLab on Your Shopify Store with EmbedAny
Why Embed CircuitLab on Your Shopify Store?
If you run an electronics shop, engineering supplies store, or educational website on Shopify, embedding CircuitLab schematics can be incredibly valuable. CircuitLab allows you to share interactive circuit diagrams and simulations with your customers, helping them understand products better or providing educational content.
Step 1: Install the EmbedAny App
Before you can embed CircuitLab content, you’ll need to install the EmbedAny app:
- Visit EmbedAny on the Shopify App Store
- Click “Add app” and follow the installation process
- Once installed, the app will be active across your store
Step 2: Find the CircuitLab Content You Want to Embed
- Go to CircuitLab and find the circuit schematic or simulation you want to display
- Copy the full URL of the CircuitLab page containing your circuit
For example, a CircuitLab URL might look like: https://www.circuitlab.com/circuit/example123/my-circuit-design/
Step 3: Embed the CircuitLab Content
Now for the easy part:
- Go to the Shopify page or product where you want to display the CircuitLab content
- In the editor, paste the CircuitLab URL into your text
- Important: Make the link italic by selecting it and pressing the italic button or using the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+I or Cmd+I)
- Save your changes
That’s it! EmbedAny will automatically transform that italic link into an interactive CircuitLab circuit diagram or simulation.
