The MediaValet for WordPress plugin connects your WordPress site directly to your MediaValet DAM (digital asset management). 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.

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.
01Go to Media > MediaValet CDN in the admin sidebar
02Click Select Asset from MediaValet and login with MediaValet account
03Browse 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.
04The CDN URL, title, alt text, and expiry date are filled in automatically
05Optionally edit the title and alt text
06Click Add to Media Library — the asset is added to Library in WordPress and served via CDN
2. Insert assets in the Editor
07Open or create a post/page using the Editor
08Choose the file from MediaLibrary which was uploaded from MediaValet to WordPress.
09The 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:
10Select 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
11Click 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
12Insert 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.

Frequently asked questions.
Do I need a MediaValet account?
Yes. 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.
