Description

The addon JW Player Compatibility enables the display of JW Player videos in AMP versions of posts and pages generated by AMPforWP, detecting the existing configuration of the JW Player for WordPress plugin and automatically converting the embed to the format required by Accelerated Mobile Pages. No manual adjustments are needed; simply activate the component so that audiovisual content remains visible on desktops and mobile devices during accelerated navigation.

Key Features

  • Plug and play activation: recognizes videos published after activation, eliminating extra configuration on the dashboard.
  • Detection of current configuration: identifies embeds already inserted via JW Player for WordPress and reuses them in the AMP version.
  • Automatic conversion to AMP: rewrites the player in the accelerated output respecting the valid markup rules of Accelerated Mobile Pages.
  • Responsive rendering: adjusts the player to the available space on desktop, tablet, and smartphone screens.
  • Continuous updates: receives maintenance aligned with updates of AMPforWP and the JW Player plugin.

Benefits of JW Player Compatibility

  • Videos visible in AMP: solves the scenario where the JW player disappears on accelerated pages.
  • Utilizing existing work: keeps already registered embeds without needing to re-post.
  • Less editorial maintenance: authors continue publishing videos in the usual manner and compatibility is handled in the background.
  • Preserved mobile coverage: ensures that traffic arriving via Google’s AMP cache finds the audiovisual content in place.

Who Is It Recommended For?

  • WordPress sites that use the JW Player for WordPress plugin and keep the AMP version active via AMPforWP.
  • News portals, entertainment blogs, and audiovisual content channels focused on mobile audiences.
  • Editorial teams that need to preserve the video library without reconfiguring each post manually.

Recommended for publishers who depend on JW Player as a pillar of video content and want that delivery to arrive intact to visitors loading pages via the AMP version.
