The virtual tour will let users explore in full 360 directions. And you can allow gyroscope for mobile users to get a near realistic visit. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
<h4>👉 Place Interactive Hotspots</h4> |

| 56 |
<h4>👉 Optimize For Inquiries & Bookings</h4> |

Place booking forms or generic inquiry forms either on a hotspot (maybe at the reception desk in the tour), or on a CTA button below the tour. Let prospects contact you as soon as they are ready. |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
<h4>👉 Make The Visitor Feel Welcomed</h4> |
| 60 |
Place a mini-welcome video and add soothing background music to make the visitor feel optimistic and valued right from the start. |

| 63 |

<h3>🌟 Create A Free Virtual Tour In Just Easy 3 Steps 🌟</h3> |
| 65 |
|
| 66 |
WPVR makes virtual tour creation super easy. |
| 67 |
|
| 68 |
All you need are multiple 360 panorama images to cover different rooms, corners, or spots. |
| 69 |
|
| 70 |
Then, you may follow these **3 simple steps** to create a free 360 VR tour in no time; |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
1. Upload the images to WPVR and they will turn into 360 panoramic views. |
| 73 |
1. Connect them to each other for navigation easily. |
| 74 |
1. Place hotspots to provide information around your location. |
| 75 |
|
| 76 |
And you are ready. Now you can publish it and place it on any page on your website. |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
That’s it, you’ve just created a virtual tour, that too, absolutely free! |
| 79 |
|
| 80 |
Your viewers can move inside or back and forth in this virtual tour, get extra information through hotspots, and get an experience similar to a real-life visit. |
| 81 |
|
| 82 |
*In the free version, you can connect up to 5 scenes, and place up to 5 hotspots on each scene.* |
| 83 |
|
| 84 |
> For unlimited scenes and hotspots, you consider using [WPVR Pro 💎](https://rextheme.com/wpvr/?utm_source=repo-CTA&utm_medium=VR-repo&utm_campaign=VR-repo-to-pricing) |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
https://youtu.be/kOCNHJdM0TA?si=jdph5JflvX1QmH3S |
| 87 |
|
| 88 |
*You can also add [Scene Transitions (PRO)](https://youtu.be/1VfbztgNFrM?si=e8XfDLDEmrwvYbRn) to make the journey more exciting.* |

|
| 91 |
<h3> Everything You Need To Create Virtual Tours That Engage & Convert </h3> |
| 92 |
|
| 93 |
WPVR is a unique VR tour creator that comes with several exclusive features to make virtual tours more engaging and conversion-optimized. |
| 94 |
|
| 95 |
Simply put, it's not just a tool to show off, but also a solution to **help you get real clients** interested to make inquiries, place bookings, and contact you for negotiations. |
| 96 |
|
| 97 |
<h4>🔮 High Quality Virtual Tours With Multiple Scenes 🔮</h4> |
| 98 |
|
| 99 |
Suppose you want to show off a property with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, living room, balconies, or even a backyard. Just take 360° panoramic images of each space and let WPVR turn them into one virtual tour. |
| 100 |
|
| 101 |
You’re probably worried about quality - a realistic 360° panorama image needs high resolution, over 3000×1500 pixels. |
| 102 |
|
| 103 |
With WPVR, you can disable WordPress compression and use any high-quality images (JPEG, PNG, WebP) to create free 360° VR tours without losing quality. |
| 104 |
|
| 105 |
<h4>🔮 Use Interactive Hotspots To Answer Questions & Engage With Prospects 🔮</h4> |
| 106 |
|
| 107 |
During a real visit, people want to explore and ask questions - your tour can do the same. |
| 108 |
|
| 109 |
You can also use interactive hotspots with full control via *[HTML Editor/WYSIWYG Editor](https://rextheme.com/docs/wysiwyg-html-editor-hotspot-content-virtual-tour/)* to add any content you want. |
| 110 |
|
| 111 |
https://youtu.be/rOAX7gqT7HQ?feature=shared |
| 112 |
|
| 113 |
You can enhance your virtual tour with: |
| 114 |
➤ Tooltips – Show quick info when visitors hover over an object. |
| 115 |
➤ Descriptions – Let people click to see more details. For example, describe the comfort of a hotel bed. |
| 116 |
➤ Images or GIFs – Show clearer visuals if something isn’t obvious. |
| 117 |
➤ Videos – Use short clips to explain features instead of text. |
| 118 |
➤ Audio – Play pre-recorded audio to guide visitors like a real person. |
| 119 |
|
| 120 |
> **Pro Tip:** Pro Tip: Think about questions or highlights visitors might want. Add them as hotspots. |
| 121 |
|
| 122 |
You can also add buttons to link to forms or external pages, like booking or inquiry forms. |
| 123 |
|

## Privacy & Data Collection |
| 293 |
WP VR includes an <b>optional, opt-in usage tracking module</b> powered by <b>Linno Telemetry SDK</b> to help us troubleshoot issues faster and improve plugin performance, feature stability, and overall user experience. |
| 294 |
|
| 295 |
## What data we collect (only if you opt in) |
| 296 |
WP VR <b>does not collect any data by default.</b> |
| 297 |
If you explicitly allow data collection via the Linno telemetry consent prompt, the plugin may collect the following telemetry data: |
| 298 |
- WordPress version |
| 299 |
- PHP version |
| 300 |
- WP VR plugin version |
| 301 |
- Active theme and active plugins (names only) |
| 302 |
- Non-sensitive plugin settings related to tours, scenes, and hotspots |
| 303 |
- Feature usage and page views within the plugin |
| 304 |
- Site administrator email address |
| 305 |
No data is collected without your explicit confirmation. |
| 306 |
|
| 307 |
## How and why the data is used |
| 308 |
The collected data is used solely to: |
| 309 |
- Diagnose and resolve technical issues efficiently |
| 310 |
- Understand how WP VR features are used |
| 311 |
- Improve plugin stability, VR tour rendering, and feature performance |
| 312 |
- Enhance the overall user experience |
| 313 |
Data collection and processing are handled via <b>Linno Telemetry SDK.</b> |
| 314 |
|
| 315 |
## Consent, Control, and Third-Party Services |
| 316 |
WP VR <b>does not collect any data by default.</b></br></br> |
| 317 |
Both <b>Linno Telemetry SDK</b> and <b>OpenPanel</b> analytics are strictly opt-in: |
| 318 |
- <b>Linno Telemetry SDK</b> does not gather analytics events unless you explicitly allow tracking. |
| 319 |
- <b>OpenPanel</b> tracking is initialized <b>only after</b> the administrator has opted in to telemetry data collection. |
| 320 |
- You can opt out at any time, which immediately stops all further data collection. |
| 321 |
- Integrating Linno Telemetry SDK <b>does not immediately start gathering data</b> under any circumstances. |
| 322 |
#### Third-party services used for optional analytics: |
| 323 |
- <b>Linno Telemetry SDK</b> – https://github.com/CODEREXLTD/linno-telemetry |
| 324 |
- <b>OpenPanel</b> (only after telemetry opt-in) – https://openpanel.dev/privacy |
| 325 |
You can review how Linno Telemetry and OpenPanel collect and use data via their respective privacy policies. |
| 326 |

|
| 354 |
To make a perfect equirectangular image, you need to use a 360 degree panoramic photo of the area you want to preview. |
| 355 |
|
| 356 |
However, you can also capture panorama images with your smartphone and use them to create a partial panorama tour. |
| 357 |
|
| 358 |
=5. Can I Customize The Hotspot Icons?= |
| 359 |
|
| 360 |
Yes. You can create a custom class on your theme, stating whatever style you want. |
| 361 |
|
| 362 |
Then you can input the class name on the Hotspot Custom Class section in a hotspot, and the content displayed will be customized according to the style you set. |
| 363 |
|
| 364 |
=6. Can I Create A 360 Degree Video Tour With WPVR?= |
| 365 |
|
| 366 |
Yes, with WP VR, you can create a 360 Degree video tour. |
| 367 |
|
| 368 |
You can either upload the video to create a tour or set a link to a Youtube/Vimeo 360 degree video. |
| 369 |
|
| 370 |
=7. How To Embed A Virtual Tour Using Gutenberg Block Editor?= |
| 371 |
|
| 372 |
Under common blocks, you will find a block called WPVR. Select the block and on the dynamic toolbar on the right, you will get the options to add ID, Height, and Width. |
| 373 |
|
| 374 |
Collect the ID from the virtual tour you created. Assign the height and width as you desire. |
| 375 |
|
| 376 |
=8. The Tour Is Not Loading On The Webpage.= |
| 377 |
|
| 378 |
Go to your WordPress Dashboard > WPVR > Get Started > Settings. |
| 379 |
|
| 380 |
Check the Enable Script Control option status. |
| 381 |
|
| 382 |
If the Enable Script Control option is turned On, turn it off and reload the tour page. |
| 383 |
|
| 384 |
If you wish to use this feature, you have to set the URLs of all the pages on your site with a virtual tour in the List of Allowed Pages To Load WPVR Scripts field. |
| 385 |
|
| 386 |
=9. What To Do If I Get "THE FILE (image link) COULD NOT BE ACCESSED" Error?= |
| 387 |
|
| 388 |
Sometimes when you add a tour to your site, you might face this issue, rather than loading the tour it will give the error "THE FILE (...) COULD NOT BE ACCESSED." |
| 389 |
|
| 390 |
This error shows up when you are running a website under "HTTPS" (secured with SSL certificate) whereas your image link is under "HTTP" (unsecured). |
| 391 |
|
| 392 |
To solve this issue, go to your WordPress Dashboard > Settings > General. |
| 393 |
|
| 394 |
Here make sure you have "HTTP" added to both "WordPress Address (URL)" and "Site Address (URL)". |
| 395 |
|
| 396 |
And that's it. Your virtual tour should load with no issues. |
| 397 |
|
| 398 |
=10. Can I make The Virtual Tours Full-width?= |
| 399 |
|
| 400 |
Yes, you can publish the tours as the full width of your page/post. |
| 401 |
|
| 402 |
For Gutenberg, Elementor, and Oxygen builder, set fullwidth on the Width field. For shortcodes, set width = "fullwidth". |
| 403 |
|
| 404 |
=11. What If I Use An Optimization or Caching Plugin?= |
| 405 |
|
| 406 |
If you use any Optimization or Caching plugins, then you need to exclude WP VR from its optimization function. |
| 407 |
|
| 408 |
Simply add '/plugins/wpvr' to the exclusion field (or use the location where you store plugins). |
| 409 |
|
| 410 |
=12. Can I Allow The Users of My Site To Create Virtual Tours?= |
| 411 |
|
| 412 |
You can only allow the backend users like Admins, Editors, and Authors of your site to create virtual tours. |
| 413 |
|
| 414 |
Admins & editors will have access to all virtual tours on the site to modify, update and delete them. |
| 415 |
|
| 416 |
Authors can access their own tours only and modify, update, or delete them. |
| 417 |
|
| 418 |
Admins can remove access from Authors and Editors at any time. |
| 419 |
|
| 420 |
= 13. How can I report security bugs? = |
| 421 |
You can report security issues through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program. |
| 422 |
