OpenCart logo

The popular ecommerce platform OpenCart has been used by online retailers since 2010.

With Sirv, you can add 360 spins to your OpenCart product page gallery. Or go one step further and replace your product gallery with Sirv Media Viewer - the modern gallery that supports 360 spins, zoomable images, videos and 3D models.

Replace gallery with Sirv Media Viewer

To give your users a really impressive experience, upload all your images, videos, 360 spins and 3D models to your Sirv account. Then you can replace your existing product page gallery with Sirv Media Viewer. Sirv's smart gallery feature will automatically generate a gallery of all assets in a particular folder. You just need to organize your assets into folders, named by the SKU of that product.

Example gallery:

Follow the steps below to create a gallery.

1. Go to your Sirv account.

2. Create a new folder called 'products':

5. Send the Sirv team a message with the URL of your store and your OpenCart login details (Admin & FTP).

6. We will add a script to your OpenCart store (free of charge) that replaces your current gallery with Sirv Media Viewer. (You can easily switch back to your previous gallery any time, if you wish.)

7. To publish new product images/videos/spins, simply upload them to the appropriately named SKU folder any time.

Change the size, style and experience of the gallery however you wish - try more than 100 options.

Alternatively, you can keep your existing OpenCart product gallery and add 360 spins to it.
