About this plugin
WP Video Popup lets you add a responsive YouTube, Rumble or Vimeo video lightbox to any page, post or custom post type of your website. Add beautiful, minimalist video lightbox popups to your WordPress site with just a few clicks – without sacrificing performance.
Why choose WP Video Popup?
✨Effortless integration
Add a sleek, minimalist video lightbox to any page, post, or custom post type using a simple shortcode.
⚡Performance optimized
Embedding YouTube or Vimeo videos can slow down your site. With WP Video Popup, videos are only loaded when users click to view them, ensuring fast page speeds and optimal performance.
📱Fully responsive
Our lightbox plugin adapts to all screen sizes, offering a flawless viewing experience on any device.
✅GDPR compliant
WP Video Popup is GDPR compliant. No video connections are made until the lightbox is triggered.
How it works
Add the shortcode
[wp-video-popup video="link-to-your-youtube-or-vimeo-video"]
anywhere to your post, page, custom post type or template file to embed the responsive video lightbox to your WordPress website.
Trigger the lightbox: Add the CSS class wp-video-popup to the element that should open the lightbox. This can be any element.
Example (Link):
<a href="#" class="wp-video-popup">Watch Video</a>
