Description
The Stories add-on adds to AMPforWP a visual AMP Stories builder in the WordPress admin, allowing you to create unlimited slides with images, GIFs and videos in a swipeable story format optimized for mobile, tablet and desktop. This add-on applies the same narrative format used by publications like CNN, Mashable and The Washington Post to your site, serving newsrooms and content producers who need to turn articles and visual campaigns into fast-reading experiences on mobile.
Key Features
- Story builder in the backend: builds each story slide slide by slide directly in the WordPress panel, with design control over every frame.
- Rich media support: inserts images, GIFs and videos into any slide to compose the visual narrative.
- Unlimited slides and stories: creates as many stories and slides as needed, with no fixed quantity limit.
- Multi-device compatibility: renders stories on mobile, tablet and desktop following the AMP standard.
- Continuous updates for AMP: keeps up with the evolution of the AMP Stories format as new specifications are published.
Stories Benefits
- Mobile engagement: delivers to the reader touch- and swipe-based navigation, in the same pattern consumed in media apps.
- Fast loading: leverages the AMP pipeline of the base plugin to open stories in near-instant time on mobile connections.
- Visibility in channels that index AMP Stories: publishes in the format adopted by major journalistic outlets and discovery platforms.
- Editorial team autonomous production: the editorial staff builds the stories without depending on a developer or external tool.
Who Is It For?
- News portals and digital magazines that want to turn reports into story format.
- Editorial blogs and visual content publishers focused on mobile audiences.
