So verwenden Sie Hotspots, um Informationen, Bilder oder Videos anzuzeigen

In the last lesson, you learned how you can easily add hotspots to a scene.

In this WP VR lesson, you will learn how you can use a hotspot to display information, images, or videos on your virtual tour.

Hotspot Type #

While setting up a hotspot, you will see that on the right side, you have an option to select hotspot type.

Hotspot Type

Typically, there are two hotspot types:

  • Info
  • Szene

But you can get two more types if you use the Addon for Fluent Forms Integration or the Addon for WooCommerce Integration.

For displaying Information, Image, or Videos, you will need to choose the Info type hotspot, which is selected by default when you add a new hotspot.

Info Type hotspots

Under the Info type hotspot, you will find three fields,

  • URL
    Here you can place a URL so that, when someone clicks on the hotspot, it will take them to that site on a new tab.
  • On Click Content
    Here, you can use HTML tags to view text, images, or videos.
    They will appear when the hotspot is clicked.
  • On Hover Content
    Here, you can use HTML tags to view text, images, or videos.
    They will appear when someone hovers the mouse on the hotspot.

**You can use both the On Hover Content and the On Click Content at the same time.

**However, you cannot use URL and On Click Content simultaneously on a single hotspot.

Now, let learn how to use them to

  • Display Information On A Hotspot
  • Display Images On A Hotspot
  • Display Videos On A Hotspot

Display Information On A Hotspot #

If you want to display text on a hotspot when it is clicked, follow the steps below.

For example:

<p>This bed is soft and comfortable.</p>

2. You can also use the <div> </div> tags or apply CSS style to it.

If you want to display text on a hotspot when hovering on it, follow the steps below.

1. Insert a text in the On hover content field.

For example, “Master Bed 1”

*You do not need to add a paragraph tag as it is automatically set to a <p> tag by default.

2. You can use the <div> </div> tags and apply CSS style to it. In this case, we advise you use the <p> tag.

For example:

<div style="margin: 10px 10px"><p style="color: green;">Master Bed 1</p></div>
