Built on the modern Unify platform, it enables content teams to search, browse, and insert approved assets from MediaValet without ever leaving the WordPress editor. The plugin streamlines your content workflow with instant access to your full media library, rich metadata, and CDN-powered dynamic asset transformations. #### Key Features * **MediaValet Asset Picker embedded in WordPress** – Search, filter, preview, and select assets from your full MediaValet library without leaving the WordPress editor. * **CDN delivery with dynamic image transformations** – Insert CDN-optimised image links with on-the-fly transformations: resize, automatic format selection, and freeform cropping. * **CDN delivery with video transformations** – Insert MediaValet videos as CDN or embed links and keep their playback settings — autoplay, mute, loop, hide controls, and background playback — applied everywhere the video renders: the Media Library, the editor, and the published post or page. * **Automatic metadata transfer** – Alt text, title, and expiry dates are automatically pushed to WordPress on asset insertion, keeping your content accessible and compliant. * **Built on Unify** – Powered by MediaValet’s modern Unify integration platform for improved reliability, maintainability, and a consistent experience. #### Benefits * Eliminate constant tab switching — work directly inside WordPress. * Easily access the approved digital assets instantly from MediaValet. * Transform and optimize assets on the fly before publishing. * Reduce manual errors by using only approved, centralized assets. * Maintain consistent branding across every page and post. * Empower content teams with a seamless DAM-to-CMS experience. * Built on MediaValet’s Unify platform for a modern, reliable integration. #### Requirements * A MediaValet account * WordPress account with any of the Contributors, Authors, Editors or Administrators Role * WordPress 5.0 or higher * PHP 7.4 or higher #### External Service This plugin connects to the MediaValet platform ([mediavalet.com](https://www.mediavalet.com)) to provide asset browsing, CDN link generation, and media synchronization. When using the plugin, the following data is sent to MediaValet servers: * Your WordPress user ID and email address (for authentication with your MediaValet account) * Your WordPress site URL (to establish the connection) * Asset metadata when inserting or syncing media This data is transmitted over HTTPS. By using this plugin, you agree to the [MediaValet Terms of Service](https://www.mediavalet.com/terms-and-condition) and [Privacy Policy](https://www.mediavalet.com/privacy-policy). ### Configuration After activating the plugin, no API keys or OAuth credentials are required. ### How to Use #### 1. Add a CDN asset without downloading Use this when you want the asset to be served directly from the MediaValet CDN without storing a local copy. 1. Go to **Media > MediaValet CDN** in the admin sidebar 2. Click **Select Asset from MediaValet** and login with MediaValet account 3. Browse Your Library — To select an asset, navigate through your library and hover over the desired file. Click on the [+] icon (labeled “Insert as CDN Link”). This will open the **Get CDN Link** popup. From there, choose the required format and select the appropriate size. Finally, click on “Insert CDN Link” to complete the process. 4. The CDN URL, title, alt text, and expiry date are filled in automatically 5. Optionally edit the title and alt text 6. Click **Add to Media Library** — the asset is added to Library in WordPress and served via CDN #### 2. Insert assets in the Editor 1. Open or create a post/page using the Editor 2. Choose the file from MediaLibrary which was uploaded from MediaValet to WordPress. 3. The asset is inserted into your post #### 3. Manage CDN assets in Media Library After inserting a CDN asset you can manage it from **Media > Library**: * **Use CDN URL toggle** — switch between serving the file from MediaValet CDN ( dynamic) or a local WordPress copy (static) * **CDN URL field** — view or edit the CDN URL directly * **Re-sync from CDN** — re-download the latest version of the asset from MediaValet #### 4. Work with MediaValet videos Videos behave like any other MediaValet asset, with playback handled for you: 1. Select a video in the MediaValet picker and choose the playback options you want( autoplay, mute, loop, hide controls, or the background preset) while generating the link 2. Click **Add to Media Library** — the video is added along with its MediaValet preview frame, which is used as the Media Library thumbnail and as the video poster image 3. Insert the video into a post or page using the standard WordPress video block or`[ video]` shortcode Your playback settings are applied wherever the video renders — the Media Library preview, the editor, and the published page. Two rules are enforced automatically, because browsers require them: * Autoplay always plays muted — browsers block unmuted autoplay * Hiding the player controls also turns on autoplay, so the video never appears as a frozen still with no way to start it When the player’s own controls are hidden, a small **Stop** / **Unmute** overlay appears on hover so visitors still have a way to silence or stop the video. ### Support For help with installation or configuration, visit our support resources: * **Support Page:** [MediaValet WordPress Plugin Guide](https://support.mediavalet.com/hc/en-us/articles/48236046772756-How-to-Install-the-MediaValet-Wordpress-Plugin) * **Email:** [support@mediavalet.com](https://su.wordpress.org/plugins/mediavalet/support@mediavalet.com?output_format=md) * **WordPress.org Forum:** [Plugin Support Forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mediavalet/) ## Screenshots [⌊MediaValet assets appear directly in the standard WordPress Media Library — once added via CDN, your entire team can select and reuse them just like any locally uploaded file.⌉⌊MediaValet assets appear directly in the standard WordPress Media Library — once added via CDN, your entire team can select and reuse them just like any locally uploaded file.⌉[ MediaValet assets appear directly in the standard WordPress Media Library — once added via CDN, your entire team can select and reuse them just like any locally uploaded file.

You need an active MediaValet account to browse and insert assets. ### How does CDN serving work? When “Use CDN URL” is enabled for an asset, images are served directly from the MediaValet CDN. Any updates to the asset in MediaValet are automatically reflected in WordPress without re-uploading. ### Can I switch between CDN and local serving? Yes. Each asset has a “Use CDN URL” toggle in the Media Library attachment editor. You can switch at any time. ### How do I re-sync an asset from CDN? In Media Library, click on the asset and use the “Re-sync from CDN” button to download the latest version from MediaValet. ### Where do I set video playback options such as autoplay or loop? Choose them in the MediaValet asset picker when you generate the link. The settings travel with the asset and are applied automatically when the video is previewed in the Media Library and rendered in your posts and pages — there is nothing extra to configure in WordPress. ### Why does my autoplaying video have no sound? Browsers block autoplay with sound, so any video set to autoplay is played muted. If the player controls are visible, visitors can unmute it themselves; if the controls are hidden, use the “Unmute” button in the overlay that appears on hover. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “MediaValet – Your Digital Asset Management (DAM)” is open source software.
