Limeboom Product Video Gallery lets you show a product video inside the WooCommerce gallery — the natural place customers already look.
How it works: you pick a video URL and a poster image per product. The poster is written into the product’s real gallery data, right after the featured image, so it shows up in any theme — including themes with fully custom gallery sliders. A play button appears on the poster; clicking it swaps the image for the video player, inline: a YouTube player, or an HTML5 player for video files.
Free features:
- Unlimited products with video
- YouTube links (watch, youtu.be, Shorts and embed URLs), played inline with the privacy-friendly youtube-nocookie.com player
- Direct video file URLs (MP4, WebM, OGG, MOV — format detected automatically)
- Click-to-play with a clean play button overlay
- Poster becomes a genuine gallery item — theme-independent by design
- Autoplay, muted, loop, and controls settings
- Adjustable play button overlay sizes
- Opt-in clean uninstall

External services
This plugin uses YouTube when a product has a YouTube link.
- What it is and what it is used for: YouTube (youtube-nocookie.com), Google’s video service, hosts the video and its player.
- What is sent, and when: nothing is loaded when the page opens. Only after a visitor clicks the play button, the visitor’s browser loads the player from youtube-nocookie.com, which receives the visitor’s IP address and browser information, as with any embedded video.
- Thumbnail download (admin only): when you save a product with a YouTube link and no poster image, your server requests the thumbnail from img.youtube.com (the video ID is sent) and stores it in your media library. Nothing is sent about your visitors.
- Terms and privacy: YouTube Terms of Service and Google Privacy Policy.
Products that use a direct video file load nothing from outside your own site.
