Install an add-on in Volto#

This document describes how to install an add-on in Volto.

You can install an add-on just like any other JavaScript package from the npm Registry.

Volto 18

pnpm --filter <name-of-your-policy-add-on> add <name-of-add-on>

Volto 17

yarn add <name-of-add-on>

If the add-on is not published on the npm Registry, you can install it directly from GitHub.

Volto 18

pnpm add collective/volto-dropdownmenu

Volto 17

yarn add collective/volto-dropdownmenu

Next, you need to add the add-on to the addons key of your Plone project's package.json.

{
  "name": "my-volto-project",
  "addons": [
    "name-of-add-on"
  ]
}
