How to embed a 360 photo on WordPress

Are you searching for the best 360 photo viewer for WordPress? Then, proceed as follow to embed any 360 photo or image on your WordPress website in no time.


Step 1: Upload your 360° images.

Start by Uploading your 360 image(s) to panoraven :

If you want to display more than one 360 photo in a single viewer (so in gallery mode), you can upload several at once. If you prefer to get only one picture per player, upload your 360 photos one by one. For information, you can also drag and drop them.


Step 2: Copy the embed provided code

Once the download is complete, it displays the 360 player. Above the viewer, you’ll find a series of buttons. One of them, the “embed code” button, allows you to copy the code directly to the clipboard. Just click on it. We’ll use it later.

Step 3: Create the right WordPress block

Now, you are on WordPress, and more precisely, in the article (or a page) editing mode. First, press the button + at the bottom right to create a new block. It is this block that will display the 360 player, so position it accordingly in your article.

Click the "plus" button
Start by creating a new block from the editing console.

WordPress will then ask you what type of block you want to create. The block we are interested in is “Custom HTML” and is located in the “Widget” subgroup. To find it faster, you can type “HTML” in the search bar. Then, click to create the said block.

Click on the block type named “Custom HTML.”

So now, you should see the block appearing on the edit screen. It is a text field to fill. It displays by default the instruction “Write HTML,” as the picture below shows.

Step 4: Embed your 360° photo on WordPress!

You will now have to paste the embed code of the image in the block’s text field. Remember? It’s the embed code you copied during step 2. Pasted in the block, it should look to something like this :

Paste the embed code in the block
Copy the embed code (from Step 2) in the block’s text field

To see what the 360 WordPress viewer will look like on your website (when the article is published), you can click on “Preview” (the button is next to HTML).
