What it does
Embedding a plain video on a page gives you little control over how people watch it or what they do next. This plugin works on top of the free Presto Player plugin, which it requires, and lets you play videos from YouTube, Vimeo, Bunny.net or your own hosting through one customizable player. You can group videos into playlists, add chapter markers for long recordings and include an audio player for podcast episodes, all without writing code.
The marketing and access tools are where it fits sites that use video to collect leads or teach. Email opt-in forms can appear during playback as optional or required steps, and clickable overlays point viewers to a next step. Videos can be limited to logged-in users, and Google Analytics reporting tracks view time and audience retention. It works alongside learning management systems and WordPress page builders, so it suits course sites and content-heavy blogs.
Best for
- Course creators embedding lessons in an LMS
- Marketers collecting email leads from video
- Podcasters publishing audio episodes on WordPress
Features
Playlists for grouped videos
Organize related videos into playlists so viewers can move from one video to the next in a single player on the page.
Multiple video sources
Play videos hosted on YouTube, Vimeo or Bunny.net, or serve self-hosted files, all through the same customizable player.
Video chapter markers
Add custom chapter markers so viewers can jump straight to the section they need, which helps with lessons and long recordings.
Email lead capture forms
Show optional or mandatory email opt-in forms during playback to collect leads from people watching your videos.
Call to action overlays
Place clickable overlays inside your videos that guide viewers toward a next step, such as another page or an offer.
Private video access
Restrict selected videos to logged-in users only, keeping members-only or paid lesson content away from public visitors.
Sticky and picture-in-picture
Keep a video visible while visitors scroll, or let them keep watching in picture-in-picture mode as they browse other content.
Analytics and audio player
Track view time and audience retention through Google Analytics reports, and publish podcast episodes with a built-in audio player.
