About this plugin
ZD Embed for Zoom Meeting SDK lets you embed a meeting experience inside WordPress pages (not an iframe). It uses the Zoom Meeting SDK (Web) and generates the required signature on your server via a protected REST endpoint.
Features:
* Custom Post Type: Zoom Rooms (each room has a public URL like /zoom/my-room/ )
* Shortcode embedding anywhere
* Server-side signature (JWT HS256) via REST endpoint protected by a temporary token
* Optional “Leave URL”
* Anti-cache headers for embed pages (helps prevent expired-token issues)
Important notes:
* You cannot reliably embed a standard Zoom join link in an iframe due to browser/platform restrictions. The recommended way is the Meeting SDK.
* By default the plugin generates attendee (role=0) signatures only. Host role requires additional security and is intentionally blocked.
Zoom App Setup (Meeting SDK)
To embed meetings you need a Zoom app with Meeting SDK enabled.
Steps (high-level):
1. Go to the Zoom App Marketplace and choose Develop → Build App.
2. Create a General App.
3. Open Embed and enable Meeting SDK.
4. Copy your credentials (Client ID/Secret or SDK Key/Secret) from App Credentials.
