External Services

This plugin embeds videos from Qvio (https://qvio.hia.ai), a video AI platform provided by HIA Inc. When a Qvio video is embedded on your site, content is loaded from Qvio’s servers.

What this means for your visitors:

  • When a page containing an embedded Qvio video is loaded, your visitor’s browser will connect to qvio.hia.ai to retrieve the video content
  • Standard web request data (IP address, browser information) may be collected by Qvio’s servers

Service Links:

By using this plugin, you acknowledge that embedded videos are served by an external service and are subject to that service’s terms and privacy practices.

FAQ

Where do I find my Qvio video ID?

Your video ID is the alphanumeric code in your Qvio video URL. For example, in https://qvio.hia.ai/embed?v=abc123, the video ID is abc123.

Can I use this with the Classic Editor?

Yes! Use the shortcode [qvio id="YOUR_VIDEO_ID"] in any post or page.

How do I change the default settings?

Navigate to Settings Qvio Embed in your WordPress admin to configure default aspect ratio and autoplay settings.

What is Q&A mode?

Q&A mode displays only the interactive question and answer interface without the video player. This is useful for knowledge checks or quizzes.

Is the video responsive?

Yes, embedded videos automatically adapt to their container width while maintaining the selected aspect ratio.

What is the Floating Button block?

The Floating Button block adds a configurable floating action button (FAB) to your page that opens a Qvio video in a modal overlay when clicked. You can customize the button’s position, appearance, and the modal’s behavior. This is useful for call-to-action buttons or keeping videos accessible without taking up content space.
