You can choose the design that you want to showcase your videos as. Instead of creating a lot of code, all you would do is to just install and style the walls of videos to meet your imagination. Let it run wild and be part of video revolution today!
Requirements
Please note that you need to install and setup Ziggeo plugin first. This plugin is offered as an extension of the same.
You will also need Ziggeo account in any region.
Why Ziggeo?
Ziggeo video playback and recording is built upon its own framework. It allows you to record and play videos on various platforms out of the box. Stop thinking about the video type specific to browsers or technology available on specific platform.
Ziggeo API is unifying the design of your video player and recorder and makes all processes just work.
Ziggeo is designed to do that using same calls and methods while our backend works out all of the specifics for you.

Video Wall
Were you interested in having an option not only to collect videos in your comments, instead to show them as well? Something like a video gallery?
Well, if you are thinking “oh, that would be so nice” – we hear you! We also want to say that that is exactly what we did. As per your requests, we have thought of a way to introduce video walls that work with just a few lines in any part of your post or page.
So what happens is that you add a call to your video wall template like so:
[ziggeovideowall myTemplate]
As you do, your post will show the wall as per template setup, which means that you could do one of the following:
1. Show video gallery / video wall as soon as the page finishes loading
1. Request for video to be posted as a comment on the post to see the video wall
1. Show a message if no videos are present – or show another template instead.
- Yes, you read that correctly. If you show your video wall, and you want to show a template within it – that is possible allowing you to quickly add more videos.
By default the video wall will show you the videos made on the specific post (the one it is on), however if you wish to show videos from other posts or that are not associated yet with your WordPress, you can do that as well through videos_to_show parameter.
You can read more about Video Wall templates on the following useful links:

Templates
This plugin introduces videowall tempalte into the Ziggeo WP Core plugin templates editor. You can then add, modify and edit it as you would any other template.
Videowall template base would look like so: [ziggeovideowall]

set(hook_name, unique_identifier, function(data) {});
This would look like so:
[javascript]
set(‘videowalls_videosite_playlist_create_details’, ‘ziggeo-details-extend’, function(data) {
//here we show you how to show the video token in the description area
//You could do anything here, even add the details like you would see on YouTube under a video
