The Open.Video plugin allows you to embed videos from Open.Video using a widget, a custom block with playback settings (like float and autoplay), or a simple [openvideo] shortcode anywhere on your site. You can easily add videos to your posts or pages by pasting an Open.Video link and configuring your preferred settings.
In addition to embedding, the plugin supports channel hosting: it can serve Open.Video channel content directly from your WordPress site under a configurable path (e.g., /openvideo/), making your site act as a proxy for Open.Video channels. The channel path can be refreshed from the plugin settings.
This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data from users or site visitors. All external requests are strictly for video embedding and channel hosting functionality, and no analytics or tracking is performed.
Shortcode format to embed a video that will float and autoplay: [openvideo url=”…” float=”1″ autoplay=”1″]
