Plug-N-Meet web conference integration

When you create or edit a room in the plugNmeet admin menu, the plugin will provide a shortcode (e.g., [plugnmeet_room_view id="your_room_id"] ). Simply copy this shortcode and paste it into any page, post, or widget. It works with the classic editor, Gutenberg blocks, and most page builders like Elementor or Divi.

While the shortcode method is great for embedding a room inside existing content, you can also give each room its own dedicated URL. This is perfect for a clean, professional look and for sharing direct links to a meeting.

1. 01Create a “Host” Page: First, go to your WordPress admin and create a new, empty page. You can name it “Meeting Room” or anything you like. You do not need to add any content to this page.
2. 02Select the Host Page: Go to the Plug-N-Meet -> Settings page. In the “Options” section, you will find a new setting called “Room Host Page” . Select the page you just created from the dropdown menu and save your settings.
3. 03Save Permalinks: Go to Settings -> Permalinks in your admin dashboard and simply click the “Save Changes” button. You don’t need to change any settings; this just refreshes WordPress’s URL rules.

That’s it! Now, when you go to the Plug-N-Meet -> Rooms list in your admin area, the “Join” actions for each room will point to a clean URL like yoursite.com/plugnmeet/room/your-room-id/ . When a user visits this link, the plugin will use your “Host Page” as a template, ensuring the login form appears correctly within your theme’s design but without any other post content.

Yes. This plugin connects your WordPress site to a plugNmeet server, which handles all the heavy lifting for the video conference (like video streaming and recording). This ensures your website’s performance is not affected, even during large meetings. You can either self-host the server for free or use our convenient plugNmeet cloud service .

Self-hosting gives you maximum control, privacy, and customization. You run the open-source plugNmeet server on your own infrastructure. This is a great free option if you are comfortable with server administration. The Cloud is the easiest way to get started. We manage the server for you, ensuring high performance and reliability without any technical setup on your part.

You can enable recording when you create a room. After the meeting ends, the recording will be processed into a simple MP4 file. You and your users can access and download these recordings from the “Recordings” tab within the meeting room interface on your WordPress page.

Yes. Because plugNmeet embeds the meeting directly on your WordPress page, you can use any standard WordPress content restriction method. Simply protect the page containing the meeting shortcode with your favorite membership or e-commerce plugin (e.g., WooCommerce, MemberPress, etc.). If a user has access to the page, they have access to the meeting.

Yes, security is a top priority. * All communication is encrypted by default using WebRTC standards. * For maximum privacy, you can enable End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) for your meetings. * Because you control the server (either self-hosted or through our private cloud), you control your data.

Yes, absolutely. This is one of plugNmeet’s core strengths. The open-source plugNmeet server can be installed on your own on-premises hardware or in a private cloud. This means all sensitive meeting data—including client information, corporate discussions, and confidential files—never leaves your network.

This is the ideal solution for corporations, healthcare providers, government agencies, and NGOs that need to comply with strict data privacy regulations (like GDPR or HIPAA) or wish to run the service exclusively within a private corporate network.

The most common reason for this is that your website is not running on HTTPS . Modern web browsers require a secure https:// connection to allow access to a user’s camera and microphone. Please ensure your WordPress site has a valid SSL certificate installed.

The new webhook feature allows you to receive real-time notifications about events that happen in your Plug-N-Meet rooms. To use it, you can add an action to the plugnmeet_webhook_data hook in your own plugin or theme’s functions.php file. For example:

add_action( 'plugnmeet_webhook_data', 'my_plugnmeet_webhook_handler', 10, 1 ); function my_plugnmeet_webhook_handler( $data ) { // Process the webhook data here }
