What your Video Gallery plugin does

A focused Elementor widget for a video gallery. You add video links, and visitors click a thumbnail to watch.

Thumbnail grid
Show your videos as a tidy grid with a play icon.
Video sources
Use YouTube or Vimeo links, or a video file from your media library.
Plays in lightbox
The video opens over the page and stops when closed.
One settings page
Its own item in your WordPress admin menu, so options are easy to find and change.
Good to know: You add video links yourself. Categories and filter buttons are a separate build.

Questions

Is there a free Elementor video gallery plugin?

Yes, free ones may exist. Build your own when you want exact behavior and nothing extra.

Do the thumbnails come from the video automatically?

For YouTube and Vimeo links the thumbnail can be picked up from the video. You can also upload your own.

Do I need Elementor?

Yes. This plugin is built for Elementor and adds a video gallery widget to the Elementor editor, so your site needs Elementor. You don't need to buy Happy Addons Pro.

Can I get a refund?

The trial fee is refunded automatically if a build fails. A purchased plugin can be refunded within 14 days if it doesn't do what the approved plan said and Ora can't fix it, as long as it hasn't been downloaded or installed.
