Though there are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/edu\/wordpress\/create-content-canva\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">many options for building an engaging online presence<\/a>, certain brick and mortar businesses may be at a disadvantage if they can\u2019t physically interact with customers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, if your business involves tours or viewings, you can use the WordPress VR plugin <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wpvr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WP VR<\/a> to add virtual reality tours to your website. With WP VR, you can quickly create walk-throughs of venues, homes, apartments, art galleries, gardens, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding virtual tours to your WordPress website will allow prospective customers to view and hopefully book your services. You could even use virtual tours for online community events!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you brainstorm ideas to boost engagement on your website with virtual tours, let\u2019s learn more about the WordPress VR plugin WP VR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#Navigating-WP-VR\">Navigating WP VR<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#Virtual-Tour-with-WP-VR\">Creating a Virtual Tour with WP VR<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Navigating-WP-VR\">Navigating WP VR \u2013 A WordPress VR Plugin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The WordPress VR plugin WP VR creates a virtual reality tour in minutes. Once you upload a 360 panoramic image (i.e. taking a picture with the panoramic option on an iPhone) within the plugin\u2019s settings, WP VR will create a virtual reality tour you can then add to any post or page.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the plugin provides varying options for VR customization based on if you\u2019re using the free or <a href=\"https:\/\/rextheme.com\/wpvr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">premium version<\/a>. Of course, before you can explore WP VR, you must<a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/edu\/wordpress\/plugins\/install-wordpress-plugins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> install and activate the plugin<\/a> in your WordPress dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting Started with WP VR<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After the plugin is activated in your WordPress dashboard, you\u2019ll notice a new menu item in your left sidebar titled <strong>WP VR. <\/strong>This is where you will upload and customize panoramic images for your virtual reality tours.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clicking on <strong>WP VR<\/strong> or <strong>WP VR &gt; Get Started <\/strong>will take you to the main settings area for the plugin. You will see 4 tabs: <strong>Info<\/strong>, <strong>Video Tutorials<\/strong>, <strong>Free vs Pro<\/strong>, and <strong>Settings<\/strong>. You will also see an alert at the very top asking your permission to allow WP VR to collect non-sensitive diagnostic data and usage information.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The title of each tab perfectly describes the information you\u2019ll find on each, but we\u2019ll still quickly go through them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Info tab <\/strong>gives a simplified outline of how to create a virtual tour, as well as provides links to their documentation and support. There is also minor marketing throughout for upgrading to the pro version of the plugin and exploring their additional plugins.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Video Tutorials tab<\/strong> has the WP VR YouTube tutorials playlist embedded on the page. Allowing you to easily choose and watch the developer walk-throughs on how to use the virtual reality plugin.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Free vs Pro tab <\/strong>lists the differences in features per the price points. Of course, additional customization features are only available with the pro version. However, if you\u2019re looking for simple virtual reality tours, you may only need the free version.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Settings tab<\/strong> allows you to configure the plugin settings per your needs. Each option has additional information that you can read by hovering your mouse over the <strong>? icon<\/strong>. The plugin developer also provides a setup video on the <strong>Video Tutorial <\/strong>tab if you want more information on configuring your settings.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"818\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Info-1024x818.png\" alt=\"WP VR Info tab\" class=\"wp-image-63630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Info-1024x818.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Info-300x240.png 300w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Info-768x613.png 768w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Info-1536x1227.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Info.png 1837w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Videos-1024x433.png\" alt=\"WP VR Video Tutorials tab\" class=\"wp-image-63632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Videos-1024x433.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Videos-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Videos-768x325.png 768w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Videos-1536x650.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_Videos.png 1852w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"883\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_features-1024x883.png\" alt=\"WP VR Free vs Pro tab\" class=\"wp-image-63629\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_features-1024x883.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_features-300x259.png 300w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_features-768x662.png 768w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_features-1536x1324.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_features.png 1854w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_settings-1024x799.png\" alt=\"WP VR Settings tab\" class=\"wp-image-63631\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_settings-1024x799.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_settings-300x234.png 300w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_settings-768x599.png 768w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_settings-1536x1198.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/WP_VR_settings.png 1868w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Tours-&amp;-Add-New-Tours\">Tours &amp; Add New Tours<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the WP VR option in the left-hand navigation, you will also see<strong> Tours <\/strong>and <strong>Add New Tour<\/strong>. <strong>Tours<\/strong>, which have a similar layout to <em>All Post<\/em> and<em> All Pages<\/em>, will show a listing of all of your created tours. On the <strong>Add New Tour<\/strong> page, you can, of course, add new tours. But it also allows you to customize and preview your customizations right from the edit screen.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s take a closer look at creating a virtual tour with WP VR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Virtual-Tour-with-WP-VR\">Creating a Virtual Tour with WP VR<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The great thing about the WP VR interface is its clean, intuitive design. It\u2019s clear that the developer wanted to make creating virtual reality tours within WordPress as easy and possible. Though the layout is slightly different, the editing screen for adding a new tour is similar to adding a new page or post.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you land on the page, you can add a title for the tour. Underneath the initial title field, you see the preview window, basic publishing and scheduling options, and then a <em>Setup<\/em> area for importing and customizing your virtual tour.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The options in the <em>Setup<\/em> section are easy to follow but we\u2019ll quickly give an overview of each. Also, you can watch the tutorial videos in <strong>WP VR &gt; Get Started &gt; Video Tutorials <\/strong>to receive a more detailed walkthrough of VR creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The General tab <\/strong>allows you to upload your panoramic images and enable basic options like <em>Tour Autoload <\/em>and <em>Basic Control Buttons<\/em> for the end user. You can also set the scene duration and enable auto-rotate.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Scenes tab <\/strong>gives you the ability to cut your virtual tour into separate scenes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Hotspots tab<\/strong> provides additional navigation and information options to you and the end user. With Hotspots, you can use icons to give end users more information about each scene or use them as markers for the scenes within a virtual tour.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Video tab<\/strong> lets you embed a video from YouTube or Vimeo if you already have a virtual tour made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>After creating your virtual tour, you can click <strong>Preview<\/strong> to review your customized tour, then <strong>Publish <\/strong>to save your changes. You can also click <strong>Save Draft<\/strong> if you aren\u2019t ready to publish, however, it will not appear on your site until you\u2019ve added it to a page or post using the WP VR <a
