Reel Pro

Reel Pro extends the free Reel plugin. It requires Reel installed and active; it is distributed through Freemius, not WordPress.org.

Map gallery images to each variation from the WooCommerce variations panel. When a shopper selects a variation, the product gallery swaps to those images and restores when the selection clears. Tiny dependency-free frontend script; CWV-friendly (preloaded images, no layout shift). On WooCommerce 11.1 and later, which has its own variation gallery field, this field shows only on variations that already have images in it (since 1.0.19); add new variation galleries in the WooCommerce field.

Upload an ordered sequence of spin frames on the Reel tab. Shoppers drag, swipe or use arrow keys to rotate through frames in a reserved-aspect-ratio viewer above the gallery.

When the free Reel Play automatically (muted) toggle is on, Reel > Video Autoplay adds PRO policy: no autoplay on mobile, start only when the video enters the viewport and skip autoplay when the visitor prefers reduced motion.

Reel > CDN Media rewrites WordPress upload URLs to a CDN origin for spin frames and variation gallery images. Optional lazy loading defers spin-frame preloads and self-hosted featured video until the media enters the viewport.
