In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the simple steps to add videos to your WooCommerce product gallery. It’s easier than you might think!
Steps To Add Video in WooCommerce Product Gallery
As you know, WooCommerce does not support uploading videos directly. Instead, you can only upload images.
To add videos to the WooCommerce product gallery, you will need to use an external plugin. One popular plugin is “Product Video Gallery for WooCommerce”. To install it, go to Plugins > Add New and search for the plugin in the WordPress plugin repository.
Install and activate this plugin.
Now that you have activated this plugin, you will see the Settings option in the plugin list.
Now you can adjust the settings according to your Preference.
Now, go to the WooCommerce product section and edit an existing product. You will see the option to add your product video URL, as shown in the image below.
Note: The free version of the Product Video Gallery for WooCommerce plugin has some limitations. You can only use it to add YouTube videos to your product gallery, and you cannot show multiple videos on a single product page. Additionally, the free version does not allow you to upload videos directly to your WordPress media library.
An alternative plugin that you can use is YITH WooCommerce Featured Audio and Video Content (Freemium). This plugin allows you to add both YouTube and self-hosted videos to your product gallery, and you can show multiple videos on a single product page.
Another free plugin that you can use to add product videos to the WooCommerce product gallery is called Really Simple Featured Video.
There are many other plugins you can try.
