Description and Purpose
The “Widget Pinterest profile for Joomla” module is a module for Joomla 3, Joomla 4, Joomla 5, and Joomla 6 that lets you add a widget displaying your Pinterest page to your website in just a few clicks.
With our solution you can publish a neat card with your Pinterest profile content on your website with no programming skills required. During setup you will only need the link to your social media profile. You will not need to generate a widget code in Pinterest or use third-party services. Just go to the module settings enter your page link and save. Everything else will be handled automatically by your website together with Pinterest.
Pinterest is not just a social network but a powerful visual search tool for inspiration. Over 450 million users search monthly for shopping ideas design inspiration recipes and much more. By adding the official script to your website you:
- Increase trust — visitors see an active up-to-date profile;
- Simplify cross-promotion — users easily move between your website and the social network and back;
- Increase chances of reposts and saves (“pins”) — this is free traffic and viral marketing;
- Improve your website’s behavioral metrics — visual content holds attention longer.
All of this with no code required and completely free.
The module doesn’t burden your project — all information displayed in the block (avatar, name, pin count) is loaded directly from the social network via Pinterest’s official CDN service. This means your hosting doesn’t spend resources storing or processing data, and visitors receive up-to-date content without delays. By using the official embed code, the widget updates automatically, fully complies with modern security standards, and doesn’t affect page loading speed. You get a live dynamic element on your site with no risks, no extra code, and no interference with your CMS.
