Overview
Common Ninja's Interactive Video widget adds clickable elements on top of a video on a Squarespace page, such as buttons, links or choices that appear at set moments, turning a passive video into something visitors can act on.
What it does
- Overlays such as buttons and links at chosen points in the video
- Calls to action that link to booking, shop or contact pages
- Player and overlay styling in Common Ninja's editor
- Embeds with a code block
Who it suits
Course creators, product brands and marketers using video for demos, tours or sales pages.
Honest caveats
Check which video sources and interaction types are on your plan before you build. The free plan has usage limits and paid plans are billed yearly per widget, from $24 a year. It needs a Squarespace Core plan or higher.
For site owners adding buttons, tabs, accordions, and micro-UI, Interactive Video Widget is less about “another plugin” and more about interface components inside Squarespace pages. Common Ninja anchors the story in accordions and tabs, calls to action, and consistent styling with your theme.
Day-to-day, that usually means fewer workarounds in the Squarespace 7.1 UI: you stay inside familiar panels instead of stacking brittle hacks.
Check compatibility notes on the seller page—especially if you run Commerce, member areas, or heavy third-party scripts alongside Squarespace 7.1.
We summarize Interactive Video Widget from public listing data—always double-check feature lists on the seller site in case Common Ninja ships updates.
Bottom line: useful if interface components inside Squarespace pages is a real constraint for site owners adding buttons, tabs, accordions, and micro-UI, and accordions and tabs / calls to action match what you’re trying to ship.
