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

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.
