Beskrivelse

GreetPlayer (formerly Greet Bubble) is an all-in-one video player, floating video bubble, audio player and playlist plugin for WordPress. Greet visitors with a personal video message, embed beautiful video and podcast players anywhere with a shortcode, and turn views into leads with call-to-action buttons — all managed from one unified Media screen.

Create a floating video bubble that welcomes visitors on any page, post, WooCommerce product or custom post type. Add a fully customizable video player with five skins, captions, chapters, branding and timed CTA overlays. Publish an audio-only (podcast) player in Compact, Card or Minimal layouts, or group your media into playlists with Sidebar and Grid layouts.

Play self-hosted files from your Media Library, YouTube, Vimeo or any external URL. Built-in analytics show views, plays, completion rates, watch time, unique viewers and trends for both your bubbles and your players — so you know exactly which videos work.

Lightweight, fully responsive and translation-ready, GreetPlayer works with any theme, WooCommerce, multisite and RTL languages.

User Reviews

🙆 «Awesome! I love this plugin, and the support is fantastic. Thank you so much for your great work!» – by @AroundWorld

🙆 «Hi! This plugin is awesome and exactly what I needed—without monthly fees. Keep up the good work. You can see an example on my homepage here: www.firmafotografering.dk» – by @firmafotografering

🙆 «This plugin is wonderful! It allows you to place different video bubbles on different posts or pages. For example, I place video bubble 1 on the Home page and video bubble 2 on the Contact page, and so on. You can also add up to four videos or links in the same bubble, which is fantastic. Bubble customization makes it easy to match the site’s style. The possibilities are endless—and best of all, there are no abusive monthly fees. The developer is very attentive and helpful. I love this plugin and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a solution like this.» – by @angelotaquari

Changed: Migrated manage_bubble to greet_media, preserving existing entries, settings, assignments, and analytics.
Improved: Settings backup and restore, admin search, and media management workflows.
Fixed: Analytics reporting and cleanup to handle trashed, draft, and permanently deleted media correctly.

4.3.1 – 28 September 2026

Tested: WordPress 7.1.2 compatibility.
Changed: Settings section names now read General, Appearance, Controls, Typography and Advanced instead of all capitals, matching the naming used across the other ThemeAtelier plugins. This affects the sidebar on the settings screens and in the bubble editor. Your settings, their values and their links are unchanged.

4.3.0 – 24 August 2026

Added: The entire admin panel is now a single-page React application — Global Settings, Manage Bubble, Assign Bubble and Help share one fast, modern interface instead of the old multi-page options framework.
Changed: The interface is built on the shadcn/ui design system, so every button, input, select, switch, card, dialog, tooltip and separator is consistent throughout, with the same spacing, typography and corner radii on every screen.
Added: Navigation lives in a single left sidebar listing every settings section with its tabs beneath it, so there is exactly one place to answer «where am I?».
Added: The sidebar collapses to an icon rail and remembers your choice between visits. It stays a full screen tall with its own scrolling, so the logo and Get Help never scroll out of reach on a long page.
Added: Every screen has a sticky toolbar carrying the page title, the section it belongs to, and that page’s actions — Save stays reachable no matter how far down a long tab you have scrolled.
Added: Settings search. Press Ctrl+K (Cmd+K on Mac) anywhere in the admin to jump straight to any setting; the field is highlighted briefly when you land on it.
Added: A light / dark / system appearance switcher, available from the toolbar on every screen.
Added: «Reset all settings», alongside the existing per-section reset, both now behind a proper confirmation dialog instead of the browser’s plain confirm box.
Added: Manage Bubble is now a real list screen — search, status filter, date range, sortable columns, list and grid views, bulk actions, duplicate, and trash/restore — replacing the generic WordPress post list.
Added: A first-class Help page with the video tutorial, documentation, support and plugin resources, replacing the old help screen.
Improved: Clicking any Greet Bubble admin menu item now navigates instantly within the app instead of triggering a full page reload.
Improved: Long settings tabs are now a centred column of grouped cards rather than one continuous list, so related options read as a set.
Improved: Colour fields are a single control combining the swatch, the value and a reset button, with a full picker (gradient, hue and opacity sliders, eyedropper, and HEX/RGB/HSL entry).
Improved: Switch rows put the label and description on the left with an On/Off read-out and the switch on the right, matching every other setting row.
Improved: Real loading, empty and error states throughout, instead of a blank screen while settings load.
Improved: Responsive behaviour across desktop, laptop, tablet and phone — the sidebar becomes a slide-in drawer on small screens, and wide tables scroll on their own instead of pushing the page sideways.
Improved: Accessibility — keyboard navigation, focus rings, labelled controls and semantic headings across every screen.
Fixed: The WordPress admin menu is pinned on Greet Bubble’s screens, so a long menu on a site with many plugins no longer stretches the page past the app. Menus taller than the screen scroll on their own, and other plugins’ hover fly-out submenus keep working.
Fixed: The page no longer shifts sideways when switching between a short tab and one long enough to scroll.
Fixed: Pro-only settings are properly separated again. Fields the configuration has always marked Pro-only (the Controls switches, the tablet/mobile positioning and draggable-position toggles, the typography settings) and Pro-only choices within a free field (Right/Left Middle positions, Icon Only buttons, the Pro attention effects) now render as clearly badged, read-only previews, and the server refuses to store them at all — so a Pro value can never be saved from the free plugin, whatever a request claims.
Added: A tab where every setting is Pro-only — Controls — now shows a single Upgrade card over the faded settings rather than a badge on every row.
Removed: The retired options framework and its stylesheets and scripts, which are no longer loaded in wp-admin.
Note: This release changes the interface only. Every setting, bubble and assignment rule is stored exactly as before and carries over as-is — no reconfiguration is needed.

4.2.5 – 27 July 2026

Fixed: Taxonomy-based bubble assignment now skips non-singular pages to prevent incorrect matches.
