Follow these steps to embed a self-hosted video on a hotspot:
Step 1: Create A Virtual Tour #
Click on the WPVR tab on the left side panel of your WordPress dashboard.
Choose to edit one of your old tours or Add a new Tour.
Step 2: Set Up Hotspots #
Make sure you’ve uploaded a valid scene and filled out all other requirements for successfully creating a virtual tour.
Go to the Hotspot section, edit an already existing hotspot, or create a new one.

On the source src field, you have to place the URL of your self hosted video file.
