How to Embed a TikTok Feed on WooCommerce (Step-by-Step)
Installing the plugin, tagging products inside video, and the lazy-load checklist that keeps a WordPress-hosted TikTok gallery from tanking page speed.
WordPress themes vary enormously in how disciplined they are about script loading, which makes the lazy-load step even more important on WooCommerce than on a more locked-down platform like Shopify. The install itself is the familiar plugin-and-shortcode pattern.
In this article
Step 1: Install the plugin and connect your sources
Install the Idukki plugin, connect TikTok, and sync your WooCommerce product catalogue so videos can carry real products, prices and stock status.
Step 2: Place the gallery and tag products
Drop the gallery in via shortcode or Gutenberg block on the pages that matter most (product pages beat the homepage for shoppable video), then tag two to four products per video against the synced catalogue.
Step 3: Confirm lazy-loading
Check that off-screen videos load with `preload="none"` and only switch to `auto` once they're the visible slide. This matters more on WordPress than most platforms, since a poorly coded theme or a conflicting plugin can silently override sensible defaults. Run PageSpeed Insights on at least three product pages after install; a double-digit point drop versus your baseline means something is forcing videos to preload that shouldn't be. The reasoning behind this is covered fully in Core Web Vitals impact of UGC widgets.
