About this plugin
com and place on any site with one line: a Logo Showcase (scrolling rows, arches, grids, carousels of client and partner logos), a Video Showcase (tabs of YouTube playlists and channels, Vimeo showcases, Twitch channels and TikTok videos, each playing in its own player over your page), a Showreel (your photos and videos as a moving reel: a ribbon on a curved wall, a crumpling row, a 3D band and more) and a Popup.
This plugin adds a DreamWidget block and a [dreamwidget] shortcode that print the same embed the dashboard hands out. Nothing runs on your server: the widget loads from DreamWidget’s CDN, sized to its content, and every change you publish in the dashboard appears on your site without touching the page again.
Shortcode
[dreamwidget id=”YOUR_WIDGET_ID” type=”logos”]
[dreamwidget id=”YOUR_WIDGET_ID” type=”video”]
[dreamwidget id=”YOUR_WIDGET_ID” type=”showreel”]
[dreamwidget id=”YOUR_WIDGET_ID” type=”popup”]
The widget id is the part after w= in the embed code on your dashboard.
External services
com), a third-party service run by the plugin’s authors. It is needed to show the widget at all: the plugin itself only prints an iframe.
- When a page with a DreamWidget block or shortcode is viewed, the visitor’s browser loads the widget from cdn.dreamwidget.com. Like any web request, this sends the visitor’s IP address and browser details to that server. The widget id is part of the address.
- When the widget is shown, a logo is clicked or a video is played, the widget reports that event to uploads.dreamwidget.com with the widget id only, so the widget’s owner can see counts. Nothing about the visitor is stored and no cookie is set.
- A Video Showcase plays videos from the platform they come from (YouTube, Vimeo, Twitch or TikTok) only when a visitor presses play; those services then receive what they receive from any embedded player.
