Video Gallery

Product reviews and unboxing videos right on the product page: YouTube, Shorts, Rutube, VK Video and uploaded files among the product images and on a separate tab. A video is added with a link: the add-on takes the preview, the vertical format and the duration from the video hosting (the YouTube duration when YouTube returns it to the store server). The gallery has its own categories and video pages with addresses, SEO and comments.

Product videos where the customer decides

A review, an unboxing or a short clip shows a product in action and from every side. The add-on puts videos right into the product image gallery and on a separate tab: the customer watches the video without leaving the page. A video is added with a YouTube, Rutube or VK Video link or uploaded as a file.

YouTube, Shorts, Rutube, VK
and uploaded mp4, ogv, webm files
A 9:16 frame

Three modes on the product page

Videos among product images

The video preview goes into the product image gallery: before the photos, after them or in place of the main image. The "Play video on the product details page" setting chooses how the video plays.

  • •  "Replace image". The video plays right in the gallery, in place of the picture.
  • •  "Show in popup". A click on the preview opens a window with the player and a "More details" link to the video page.
  • •  "In the image preview". The video opens in the image previewer together with the photos.
  • •  Vertical videos. Shorts, VK clips and vertical files keep a 9:16 frame in every mode, with no black bars on the sides.
  • •  Product lists. Products with videos get a video mark.
Product page: the first image is a YouTube video, the thumbnails include a Shorts video and an uploaded file.

The "Show in popup" mode: the video in a window over the page and the "More details" link.

Tab, video pages and categories

  • •  The "Video gallery" product tab. Video tiles with a preview, duration, date, author and the beginning of the description; a video opens in a window.
  • •  Video page. The player, duration, description, products from the video, reviews and tags; its own address and meta data for search engines.
  • •  Video categories. A category tree with its own pages and addresses; videos of subcategories by a setting.
  • •  Pages, blog and vendors. Videos are attached to information pages, to posts of the "Cart-Power: Power Blog" add-on and to the vendor page.
  • •  Layout blocks. "CP: Video block" as a grid or a scroller: manual, newest, by category, by vendor; "CP: Video categories" as a tree.
The "Video gallery" product tab: previews with duration, date, author and description.

A video is added with a link

Paste a regular video link into the video form: the add-on takes the ID from it and asks the video hosting for the rest.

  • •  YouTube and Shorts. A link of any kind; the preview in the best available quality, a vertical one for Shorts, and the "Vertical video" check box is set by itself.
  • •  Rutube. A video link; the preview and duration come from Rutube.
  • •  VK Video. vk.com, vk.ru and vkvideo.ru links to videos and clips or an embed code; the preview, duration and embed key come from VK.
  • •  Uploaded file. mp4, ogv or webm. The browser takes the preview from a video frame, the "Take a frame from the video" button makes a preview of the frame where the player is paused; the duration is read from the file.
  • •  Duration. Shown on the tiles and on the video page. For YouTube it comes when the hosting returns data to the store server: YouTube often does not return it to servers in data centers, and then the duration is entered in the form by hand.
The video list in the admin panel: video type, preview and status.

A VK Video form: the link, the "Vertical video" check box, the duration and the preview received from VK.

Setup and data exchange

  • •  Product tab in the admin panel. Two lists: videos among images and videos for the tab; the "Add videos" and "Create and add" buttons.
  • •  Settings. The playback mode, the position among thumbnails, the author, looping of uploaded files, hiding player controls, tile size and turning YouTube videos off with one setting.
  • •  Variations. The same videos for the whole variation group or own videos for each variation.
  • •  Export and import. "CP: Videos" with a line per language, type, links, duration, vertical format and category path; "CP: Videos for products" with links by product code.
  • •  SEO and markup. Page addresses and meta data; with Cart-Power add-ons for Open Graph, sitemap and JSON-LD the videos get their markup and a video sitemap.
The "CP: Video gallery" product tab: videos among images and videos for the tab.

Add-on settings, the "Visual options" section: the playback mode and the position among thumbnails.
Add-on settings, the "Visual options" section: the playback mode and the position among thumbnails.

Multi-Vendor and storefronts

  • •  Vendor videos. A vendor manages own videos and categories in the "Products" section of the panel and attaches them to own products and profile; the vendor's lists show only own videos.
  • •  Common videos. The administrator creates a video or a category for all vendors ("All vendors") once; vendors attach them to their products but cannot change them.
  • •  Vendor page. The "Video gallery" tab and a block with videos of the vendor whose page is open.
  • •  Ultimate. Videos and categories belong to a storefront; settings are set per storefront.

What the add-on does not promise

  • •  On a server in a data center the add-on will most likely not get the duration of YouTube videos: it is entered by hand. Rutube, VK Video and uploaded files are not affected.
  • •  A private VK video without an embed key is added with the player embed code.
  • •  Looping and hiding player controls work for YouTube and uploaded files, not for Rutube and VK.
  • •  There is no single page with all videos: videos are shown by categories, on products, pages and in blocks.
  • •  The CS-Cart mobile app is not supported.
  • •  Installation and updates require the "Cart-Power: Add-ons Manager" add-on; the license is bound to the store domain.

What is new in version 2.12

  • •  VK Video: links to videos and clips or an embed code; the preview and duration come from VK.
  • •  A vertical 9:16 frame for Shorts, clips and vertical files: in the product gallery, the pop-up, the previewer and on the video page.
  • •  Video duration on the tiles and the video page: it comes from Rutube and VK by itself, is read from an uploaded file, and comes from YouTube when the hosting returns data to the server.
  • •  The YouTube and Rutube fields accept a link of any kind, Shorts included.
  • •  A preview of an uploaded video from a frame; one pass over the list gives a preview and a duration to all older video files.
  • •  Multi-Vendor: common videos and categories for all vendors; vendor menu items moved to "Products".
  • •  New export and import of "CP: Videos": a line per language, links, duration, category path, vendor; the "Get the preview, duration and frame from the video hosting" option.
  • •  The "Show videos from subcategories" setting; a product copy gets its videos.
  • •  Compatibility with CS-Cart 4.20 and 4.21: the add-on works next to the native product videos.
  • •  Product lists get video data with three queries per page instead of two per product; the YouTube script loads only where a video is open.
  • •  Fixes in import and export, video blocks, removal of linked data, the image preview mode, the UniTheme2 theme on phones and upgrades from older versions.

Frequently asked questions

Which video hostings are supported?

YouTube (Shorts included), Rutube and VK Video by a link, VK also by an embed code. A video can also be uploaded as an mp4, ogv or webm file: then it plays without third-party services.

Can a video replace the main product photo?

Yes. The "As main" check box of a video on the product tab puts it in place of the main image, and the "Video position in thumbnails" setting places videos before or after the photos.

How do vertical videos look?

Shorts, VK clips and vertical files are shown in a 9:16 frame: in the product gallery, the pop-up window, the previewer and on the video page. For Shorts links the "Vertical video" check box is set by itself.

Why does a YouTube video have no duration?

YouTube does not return the duration to every server: it often answers stores on data center servers with a robot check. Then the duration is entered by hand in the "Duration" field. Rutube, VK Video and uploaded files get the duration by themselves.

How does the add-on work in Multi-Vendor?

A vendor manages own videos and categories and attaches them to own products; the vendor's lists show only own videos. The administrator can create common videos for all vendors: vendors attach them but cannot change them.

What happens to videos on an upgrade from an older version?

Videos, categories and links are kept. One item in the video list, "Preview and duration for video files", gives older video files a preview and a duration. Make a backup before the upgrade.

See the add-on on the demo store. The home page links to a product with videos, video categories and the add-on screens in the admin panel.

More and more people want to see videos of what they buy and this option is very easy to implement with this addon.
I can put the videos as the main or secondary image of each product, in a personalized way.
I can also put my own mini image for each video I upload.
Comment
This video addon is spectacular. I have it on both of my sites: a traditional one and a multivendor one.

And with the support of the cart-power team everything is easier.

CS-Cart development · in-house team · since 2013

We build, upgrade and speed up CS-Cart stores and marketplaces

Analysts, developers, designers, QA and support under one roof — no subcontractors. We ship add-ons you can buy on this page today, and we take on the work that no ready-made add-on covers.

Flagship products

Two add-ons that change how a store performs

Everything else we publish improves one screen. These two change the numbers: how customers find products, and how often they come back.

 

Add-on · Search & merchandising

Smart Search

Elasticsearch-powered search for large catalogues. The customer types two letters, sees products with images and prices, and buys from the dropdown — even after a typo or with the wrong keyboard layout.

Visitors who use the search bar are 24% of traffic and 44% of revenue, and convert about 2.5× better than people who only browse categories. If search returns nothing, up to 80% of them leave.
Constructor, Beyond Relevance Report 2025; Google Cloud × The Harris Poll, 2023

Catalogue size Sub-second results on 300,000+ products, Multi-Vendor included
Understands Typos, wrong keyboard layout, synonyms, word forms, SKUs, brands and attributes
Reporting Query analytics — what customers search for and which searches return nothing
Deployment Our cloud, or Elasticsearch on your own server

from $35/month

Plans by catalogue size · self-hosted from $1,215 one-time

 Plans and details →

Try it on a live catalogue: open the demo store and search with a deliberate typo.

 

Add-on · Mobile commerce

PowerApp — mobile app for your store

A native iOS and Android app running on your CS-Cart data: the same products, prices, stock, promotions, reward points and orders. There is no second catalogue to maintain — everything stays in the admin panel you already use.

A mobile site brings a customer in once; an app brings them back for free. Push notifications replace the retargeting budget you spend to buy the same customer a second time.

Platforms Native iOS and Android, published under your own developer account
Home screen Built in the admin panel from six block types, the same way you build website pages
Time to launch Under a week from purchase to submission for App Store and Google Play review
Compatibility CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor 4.18–4.20 · 11 client apps already live in the stores

from $790

Services

When no add-on solves it, we do the work

Fixed scope, written specification, a named project manager and a warranty on what we ship.

Custom CS-Cart development

Functionality the platform does not have: add-ons, marketplace mechanics, integrations with 1C, CRM, ERP, payment and delivery providers. We start from a written specification, not from an estimate on a phone call. Details →

CS-Cart upgrade

Move to the current version without losing data, custom code or add-ons. We audit every modification first, upgrade on a staging copy, adapt what breaks and switch over with little or no downtime. Details →

Speed and performance optimisation

Conversion falls by about 4.4% for every extra second of load time. We profile the server, the database and the front-end, then fix what actually costs the seconds — and show you the before-and-after numbers. Details →

Design for CS-Cart

Mobile-first storefront design built on CS-Cart's own template structure, so the layout survives the next platform upgrade instead of becoming a migration problem. Details →

SEO for CS-Cart

A technical audit of indexing, duplicates, redirects, structured data and Core Web Vitals — delivered as a prioritised fix list your developers can act on, or that we implement ourselves. Details →

How we work

What you get besides the code

Before we start

We discuss the goal, offer options and write the specification. You approve scope and price before development begins.

While we build

A named project manager reports progress on a fixed schedule. You always know what is in work and what is next.

Before release

A separate QA pass on every release — the developer who wrote the code is not the person who signs it off.

After handover

Documentation for everything we ship, plus a warranty on the modifications and the project.

Tell us what the store needs to do

Describe the task in a couple of sentences and we will come back with options, a scope and a price. The consultation is free, and we will say plainly if a ready-made add-on already solves it.
