Cloudflare Stream Video

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   If you’re using the block editor and want to use CloudFlare Stream to host your videos, this might be useful (although it looks like there’s no way to set a posterframe, which would be a problem for us since it can’t be done on the CloudFlare Stream dashboard either)… for those of us who don’t use the block editor, it’s pointless. I was hoping to have something that would integrate with the Media Library so that we could access our videos from either the Classic editor or the page builder we use. No such luck. Has anyone found a plugin that will integrate CloudFlare Stream videos into the Media Library interface?

   It is a birth to connect and then it only works with blocks, it does not have an upload to the classic editor and neither through MIDIA, nor anywhere. Very bad.

   2.This plugin has so much potential, but for some reason I cannot make it so a person can ONLY upload. I know, I seen that before (upload only option) but I’ve now tried each user role and it either has upload or stream only. I DON’T WANT EVERY USER BEING ABE TO VIEW EVERY USERS POST IN TH STREAM LIBRARY. Please I’d appreciate any help. 1.I just added this plugin and configured it. So far I got mixed reviews and overall it is still a good plugin. A plus is I can see all the videos I uploaded through stream in my WordPress media library. A negative is it seems to only work with Gutenberg editor. I will be back to give a full review once I test it out some more This topic was modified 6 years ago by cbarriner.

   On the description, we can read Secures video access with signed URLs But this feature is not available, the support says that is necessary to implement it :/ This topic was modified 6 years, 8 months ago by Fernando Sousa.

   You upload videos one at a time through the block. Videos then appear in the media library but you can only add them to posts using the block that the plugin provides. You can’t then use them in other ways once they’re uploaded which is annoying. Also, videos uploaded directly to Stream don’t appear, so you have to upload them via the block which means you can’t bulk upload. Also, the Cloudflare stream dashboard is pretty basic. So this approach is fine if you’re using a small number of videos but it’s not ideal if you are working with a lot of videos as you have to do a lot of individual work for each video. So this plugin doesn’t actually make life any easier, quicker etc. It’s just a different way of doing something with no added efficiencies or benefits. So I wouldn’t recommend using it, even though it worked fine within the limitations I’ve described. I am instead just uploading videos directly to Stream and then embedding them using the code they provide. This method is quicker as you can bulk upload and it’s also more versatile as you can use the videos outside of the block editor. I’m happy to amend this review if and when it improves.
