Vidreelo Shoppable Video Reels

Vidreelo lets you add short, vertical videos to your WordPress site and play them in a beautiful Instagram Reels / YouTube Shorts–style full-screen player. Visitors browse a carousel or grid of vertical thumbnails, tap one, and swipe up and down through your videos, just like a social feed.

Each reel can use a YouTube video or a self-hosted MP4, and you can tag products on it (WooCommerce products or manual products) so a ”Shop” card appears right on the video. It is perfect for shoppable video, product demos, testimonials, tutorials, and social-style content.

Key Features

• One simple shortcode — [vidreelo] shows all your reels.
• YouTube or self-hosted videos — choose the source per reel; only the field you need is shown.
• Auto-play in the grid — both self-hosted and YouTube reels play muted as they scroll into view.
• Instagram Reels–style player — full-screen vertical player with swipe up/down between videos, mute, and play/pause.
• Shoppable — tag WooCommerce products (automatic image, title, price, sale price and rating) or manual products (title, price, compare price, image and link). The product shows under the reel and as a ”Shop” card in the player.
• Carousel or grid layout, columns per device, and accent color.
• Widget — drop reels into any widget or block area, no shortcode needed.
• Lightweight & self-contained — no external libraries or CDNs, fully responsive, works with any theme.
