Hi @srdsrd ,
Thanks for the feedback, and sorry ReelsWP didn’t match what you expected.
To clarify: ReelsWP follows the Instagram/TikTok-style Reels format, which is video-first by design — each reel needs a video, with the thumbnail acting as a preview image. So image-only reels aren’t allowed.
You can check out this guide on creating an Instagram-style reels/stories experience in WordPress: https://reelswp.com/blog/how-to-create-instagram-style-stories-in-wordpress/
If you need any help setting up multiple reels or using the widget, please create a support ticket, and our team will be happy to assist you.
Hi, could you please clarify where you found the 1 or 2 images limitation?
ReelsWP is a video-specific plugin. It supports video reels, and you can set an image as a thumbnail for each reel.
You can create multiple reels and group 1 to X number of reels together into a single widget, which you can display using a shortcode. The free version supports unlimited reels within each widget.
Calling the free version “useless” doesn’t explain the actual limitation or issue you’re facing. Our developers have worked day and night for months and years to build a product that adds value to users.
We welcome constructive feedback and would appreciate it if you could clarify the specific issue you encountered so we can better understand your concern.
