press3d

I use this plugin to display STL files in articles.A cleanly written, lightweight yet powerful plugin that makes 3D-Models like STL files available via WordPress media management.The display can be customised in many ways, and you can copy different variants directly from the 3D view in the media library as shortcodes and insert them into the article. In the Gutenberg editor, this can probably be done directly in the block.I have only tested the plugin in the Classic Editor so far, but I am very impressed with it.If you switch from the 3D Viewer plugin and want to automate the migration using S&R, you must note that you have to increase the ID by one and set the variant to 1.It is a little unusual, but understandable, that the button for adjusting the display only appears in the media view once the model has been fully loaded. So you need to be patient for a moment.The default settings for the display of the models are a bit rudimentary, limited to the loading animation and the basic colour of the model. It would be nice to change the embed size globally for all models if they use the default size.Press3D does not push itself into the foreground, and its settings can be found under the ‘Settings’ menu item. That’s how it should be!Press3D does not use any external services (GDPR-friendly) and the documentation is written in a sober, technically pragmatic tone instead of the flowery marketing language that other developers like to use.All in all, I am very satisfied with this plugin, which is a useful addition to WordPress.Press3D replaces my previous 3D viewer because – since I can’t easily switch to a European CMS with my overly extensive website – I’m gradually removing all US, Russian and Chinese plugins for security reasons. Based on the pragmatic and unassuming design of the plugin, I appreciate that the developer is at least not from the US.
