WordPress Integration using oEmbed

STRIMY is now compatible with oEmbed, allowing you to easily embed videos on WordPress sites.

What is oEmbed?

oEmbed is a protocol that allows a website to display embedded content (such as videos) from another site by providing only the URL of the original content.

How to use oEmbed with WordPress

It is very simple to embed STRIMY videos in WordPress:

  1. Copy the URL of any public STRIMY video (e.g., https://strimy.pro/v/12345678)
  2. Paste the URL into the WordPress editor on a separate line
  3. WordPress will automatically convert the URL into an embedded video player

Example

Paste in WordPress
https://strimy.pro/v/12345678
Result

An embedded video player with playback controls.

Customization

WordPress uses the default size for embedded videos. If you need to customize the size or add additional options, you can use the full HTML embed code available on each video page.

Troubleshooting

  • Make sure the video is public or unlisted
  • Verify that you are pasting the URL on a separate line in the WordPress editor
  • If you are using the classic editor, make sure you are not in HTML mode when pasting the URL
  • If the video does not appear, try using the full HTML embed code
