Prepare a video popup

Video Popup Premium adds responsive lightboxes and popups for YouTube, Vimeo, MP4, and WebM videos. Create unlimited popups for product presentations, service introductions, announcements, or other video content.

Choose how each video should appear: visitors can open a popup from page content, or a video can display automatically in selected areas such as all posts or all pages.

Build and place click-triggered popups

Use the builder in the Classic Editor to choose a video source and configure the available options. Explanations beneath each option guide setup. Add the generated shortcode in Gutenberg or a page builder where visitors should be able to open the popup.

Configure an automatic display

In the WordPress admin area, open Video Popup and select Public On-Page Load. Choose the locations where the popup should appear, such as all posts or all pages, and follow the option explanations. If you want autoplay with this feature, the video must be muted because of browser autoplay policies.

Set up and review

1. Install and activate Video Popup Premium in WordPress.
2. Create a popup with the Classic Editor builder.
3. Select YouTube, Vimeo, MP4, or WebM and configure the available options.
4. For a click-triggered popup, place its shortcode in Gutenberg or a page builder.
5. For automatic display, open Video Popup, choose Public On-Page Load, and configure the locations.

Review the popup on the intended posts or pages to confirm its trigger and responsive presentation. If you use a caching extension, clear the cache so the updated popup modal and styles load correctly.
