Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Installation Guide for Dynamic Watermark

Enable the dymanic watermark and set the visual configuration in the player settings options on Video CMS. tab=edit_player

-

Select options (name, email, user_id) from the Gumlet WordPress plugin settings and save to show them over the video.

-

Use Gumlet shortcode to embed videos anywhere across WordPress website.

-

Sample shortcode to use – [gumlet id=653f6137411da17d32e574a5]

-

Define the width, height of the Embed inside the shortcode – [gumlet id=653f6137411da17d32e574a5 width=800 height=600]

-

Set audio track and caption language – [gumlet id=653f6137411da17d32e574a5 audio_track_language=en caption_language=es]

API key (library & upload)

-

Open your Gumlet account API access and create an API key.

-

In WordPress go to Settings → Gumlet Video and open the API tab. Paste the key and save. Use Test connection to verify.

-

In the Gumlet Video block, use Browse library to pick a video, or Upload video file to send a file directly to Gumlet (the file uploads from your browser to Gumlet; it is not stored in your Media Library). You can still paste an Asset ID manually.

-

Only users with the Administrator role can use these features; the key never leaves your server except for server-to-server calls to Gumlet.
