Description
Limeboom Product Video Gallery lets you show a product video inside the WooCommerce gallery — the natural place customers already look.
How it works: you pick a video URL and a poster image per product. The poster is written into the product’s real gallery data, right after the featured image, so it shows up in any theme — including themes with fully custom gallery sliders. A play button appears on the poster; clicking it swaps the image for an HTML5 video player, inline.
Free features:
- Unlimited products with video
- Direct video file URLs (MP4, WebM, OGG, MOV — format detected automatically)
- Click-to-play with a clean play button overlay
- Poster becomes a genuine gallery item — theme-independent by design
- Autoplay, muted, loop, and controls settings
- Adjustable play button overlay sizes
- Opt-in clean uninstall

Installation
- Install through the WordPress plugin screen, or upload the folder to
/wp-content/plugins/. - Activate the plugin. WooCommerce must be installed and active.
- Edit a product, open Product data General, enable the product video, paste a video URL, and choose a poster image.
- Update the product. The poster appears as the second image in the gallery with a play button.
- Optional: adjust playback behavior under WooCommerce Product Video Gallery.
FAQ
-
Does it work with my theme?
-
Yes. Instead of hooking into theme-specific gallery rendering, the poster image is written into the product’s actual gallery data — the same field every theme reads from. Tested with Storefront, Astra, and Flatsome, including themes with custom gallery sliders.
-
Which video formats are supported?
-
Direct file URLs: MP4, M4V, WebM, OGG/OGV, and MOV. The correct MIME type is detected from the file extension. YouTube and Vimeo URLs are supported in the Pro version.
-
What happens to my data if I delete the plugin?
-
Nothing, by default. Your video URLs and poster selections are kept, so reinstalling (or upgrading to Pro) picks them right back up. If you want a clean removal, enable “Remove all plugin data” in the settings before deleting.
-
Where does the video poster appear?
-
Right after the product’s featured image — the second image customers see in the gallery.
