DawsonyWeb – Client Tutorial Videos

Beskrivelse

Client Tutorial Videos makes it easy to provide video tutorials to your clients right inside their WordPress dashboard. Upload videos to the media library, add them through a simple repeater interface, and your clients will always know where to find help.

Features

  • Repeatable tutorial blocks — Add as many tutorials as you need, each with a title, description, and video.
  • Dashboard widget — A compact tutorial list appears on the WordPress dashboard for quick access.
  • Dedicated tutorial page — A full admin page with video players and descriptions so clients can watch without leaving wp-admin.
  • Role-based visibility — Control which user roles can see the tutorials page and widget.
  • Drag-and-drop ordering — Reorder tutorials with a simple drag handle.
  • Media library integration — Select videos directly from the WordPress media library.

Use Cases

  • Agencies providing training materials to clients after site launch.
  • Freelancers who build sites and need to leave behind how-to guides.
  • In-house teams onboarding new editors or content managers.

Philosophy

  • No front-end output or performance impact — everything runs in wp-admin only.
  • No external tracking, telemetry, or «phone home» behavior.
  • All inputs sanitized, all outputs escaped.
  • Nonces for all actions, capability checks for all settings.
  • Clean uninstall removes all plugin data.

Privacy

Client Tutorial Videos does not collect, store, or transmit any data externally. All data is stored locally in your WordPress database (wp_options). No cookies are set. No external requests are made.

Ofte stilte spørsmål

Where do I add tutorials?

Go to Tutorial Videos Manage Tutorials in the WordPress admin sidebar. You need the manage_options capability (typically Administrator) to add or edit tutorials.

Who can see the tutorials?

By default, only Administrators can see the tutorial page and dashboard widget. You can configure which roles have access from the Manage Tutorials settings page under «Settings».

Does this plugin affect the front end?

No. Everything runs in wp-admin only. No scripts, styles, or markup are added to your public site.

What video formats are supported?

Any video format supported by the WordPress media library and the HTML5 <video> element (MP4, WebM, OGG). MP4 is recommended for the widest browser support.

What happens when I deactivate or delete the plugin?

Deactivating preserves all settings. Deleting the plugin via the WordPress admin removes all settings from the database. Uploaded video files remain in the media library.

What PHP version is required?

PHP 7.4 or higher.

Is this plugin multisite compatible?

The plugin works on multisite but settings are per-site. Network-wide settings are not yet supported.
