External Services

This plugin connects to external services to provide video embedding functionality:

Ignite Video OEmbed API
Service: https://app.ignitevideo.cloud/api/oembed
Purpose: Retrieves video embed metadata and HTML for Ignite Video URLs
Data sent: The complete Ignite Video URL that needs to be embedded
When: Every time an Ignite Video URL is detected in WordPress content (posts, pages, widgets, etc.)
Terms of Service: https://ignite.video/en/terms
Privacy Policy: https://ignite.video/en/privacy

Ignite Video Player
Service: *.euvideocdn.com player domains (or your custom video domain)
Purpose: Hosts and serves the actual video player and content
Data sent: No data is sent by the plugin; users’ browsers connect directly to load videos
When: When embedded videos are displayed to site visitors
Terms of Service: https://ignite.video/en/terms
Privacy Policy: https://ignite.video/en/privacy

Note: This plugin only facilitates embedding – it does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. All data transmission occurs between the user’s browser and Ignite’s servers according to Ignite’s privacy policy.

Technical Details

Architecture:
The plugin uses WordPress’s built-in OEmbed system combined with a fallback embed handler for maximum compatibility. It first attempts to use the Ignite Video OEmbed API for rich metadata and optimal rendering, then falls back to a manual iframe if needed.

Performance:
– Minimal overhead – only loads when Ignite Video URLs are detected
– Caches embed responses using WordPress’s built-in caching
– 10-second timeout for API requests to prevent slow page loads

Security:
– All URLs and IDs are properly escaped and validated
– Uses WordPress’s built-in security functions
– No permanent data stored – safe to activate and deactivate
– No database modifications or custom tables

Support

For technical issues with this WordPress plugin, please check:
1. That your WordPress version meets the minimum requirements
2. That the Ignite Video URL format is correct
3. That your website can make outbound HTTP requests

Privacy

This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. When a video is embedded, your browser will connect directly to the Ignite Video servers to load the video player, subject to Ignite Video’s privacy policy.

Installation

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/ignite-video-embed directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress admin by uploading the zip file.
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
  3. That’s it! Start pasting Ignite Video URLs into your content.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I embed an Ignite Video?

Simply paste the full Ignite Video URL into your WordPress content. The plugin will automatically detect the URL and convert it to a video embed.

What URL formats are supported?

The plugin supports URLs in these formats:

Video on Demand:
https://your-domain.euvideocdn.com/player/index.html?id=your-video-id

Live Events:
https://your-domain.euvideocdn.com/player/index.html?live=your-event-id

If you’ve configured a custom domain in the plugin settings, those URLs are also supported.

Does this work with page builders?

Yes! The plugin is fully compatible with popular page builders including WPBakery and Elementor. Use their video/embed elements and paste your Ignite Video URL.

What happens if the embed service is down?

The plugin includes a fallback system that will still display your video using a basic iframe if the embed API is temporarily unavailable.

Do I need to configure anything?

No configuration is required for basic usage – the plugin works automatically once activated. However, if you use a custom domain for your Ignite Video delivery (e.g., videos.yourdomain.com), you can add it in Settings Ignite Video to enable oEmbed support for your custom domain URLs.

Is this plugin free?

Yes, this plugin is completely free to use.
