It is a single, focused tool— upload a model, embed it, done. **Who Uses ExploreXR** * **E-commerce stores** — let shoppers rotate and inspect products before buying( AR available via Premium) * **Product designers and manufacturers** — present technical models with precision and clarity * **Architecture and real estate teams** — browser-based model presentations without external tools * **Agencies** — a repeatable system for delivering 3D capability across multiple client sites * **Education and training teams** — interactive 3D models embedded directly into course content **ExploreXR Premium — The Add-On Platform** Premium is not just “more features” — it is a different architecture. Where the free version is a single viewer, Premium is a structured add-on system: a lean core with optional capability modules you activate individually. Your site only loads the code you actually use. #### Performance-Aware Architecture Conditional asset loading, multiple loading strategies (direct, lazy, or poster- driven), and built-in Draco and Basis Universal compression decoders ensure heavy 3D assets do not slow your site down. Heavy models, clean Core Web Vitals. #### Modular Add-On System A lean core with optional premium add-ons — AR, material variants, animation controls, WooCommerce integration, and more. Activate only the exact capabilities you need. Nothing else loads. No bloat. #### Broad Ecosystem Compatibility Complies strictly with WordPress coding standards and works natively with the Block Editor, Classic Editor, and major page builders — Elementor, Divi, and Avada. Tested against every WordPress release including WordPress 7. **Available Add-Ons:** * **AR (Augmented Reality)** — iOS Quick Look, Android Scene Viewer, and WebXR in one add-on * **Animation Control** — multi-clip playback with configurable crossfade transitions * **Annotations** — interactive hotspots, labels, dimension lines, and camera-targeted explanations * **Material Variants** — real-time color, finish, and model state switching without page reload * **Camera & Lighting** — expert camera constraints and HDRI environment lighting * **Post-Processing** — cinematic visual effects and filters applied directly to the viewer * **WooCommerce Integration** — attach 3D models directly to product pages * **Elementor Widget** — native drag-and-drop 3D viewer block inside the Elementor editor * **Divi Module** — native integration within the Divi visual builder * **Avada Integration** — Fusion Element for Avada-based sites * **Draggable Viewer** — user-repositionable viewer for advanced editorial layouts * **Mouse3D Cursor** — 3D-aware pointer for interactive presentation experiences All 12 add-ons are included in [ExploreXR Premium plans](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/preise/). **Try Premium Free For 14 Days — No Credit Card Required.** [Request your free trial](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/trial-request/) **Supported Page Builders** ExploreXR works with: * WordPress Block Editor (Gutenberg) * Classic Editor * Elementor (free version: shortcode; Premium: native widget) * Divi (free version: shortcode; Premium: native module) * Avada / Fusion Builder (free version: shortcode; Premium: native element) * Any shortcode-compatible builder **Resources** * [Plugin Documentation](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/documentation/) * [Tutorial: Build an Interactive 3D Design](https://youtu.be/RTTJ6lX6uXw?si=KeMRrSABHfcf1vmr) * [Live Demo](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/demo/) * [View All Add-Ons](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/addons/) * [Pricing and Plans](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/preise/) * [Free Trial Request](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/trial-request/) * [Support Forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/explorexr/) * [Premium Support](https://expoxr.com/support/) ### Third-Party Libraries #### Google Model Viewer * License: Apache 2.0 * Source: [https://github.com/google/model-viewer](https://github.com/google/model-viewer) * Purpose: Core 3D rendering engine used to display GLB, GLTF, and USDZ files in the browser #### Draco Geometry Compression * License: Apache 2.0 * Source: [https://github.com/google/draco](https://github.com/google/draco) * Purpose: Decoding support for Draco-compressed 3D geometry — reduces model file size significantly #### Basis Universal Texture Compression * License: Apache 2.0 * Source: [https://github.com/BinomialLLC/basis_universal](https://github.com/BinomialLLC/basis_universal) * Purpose: Decoding support for Basis Universal compressed textures — improves texture loading performance All libraries are GPL-compatible and bundled locally.

The free version is a 3D viewer — upload a model, embed it with a shortcode, done. ExploreXR Premium is a full add-on platform built on a modular architecture, giving you AR, animations, material variants, WooCommerce integration, native page builder widgets, and more — activated individually so your site stays lean. ### Which 3D file formats does ExploreXR support? GLB, GLTF, and USDZ. GLB (binary GLTF) is the recommended format — it is self-contained, loads faster, and has the broadest device support. USDZ is optimized for iOS AR workflows. ### How do I embed a 3D model on a WordPress page? Create a model under **ExploreXR Create Model**, then paste the shortcode `[explorexr_model id="123"]` into any post, page, widget, or page builder block. That is all. ### Does ExploreXR require coding knowledge? No. The entire workflow — uploading models, configuring the viewer, embedding on pages — is handled through the WordPress admin interface. No PHP, JavaScript, or CSS knowledge is required. ### Does it work on all devices and browsers? Yes. ExploreXR works on all modern browsers and devices that support WebGL, including desktop (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge), tablet, and mobile. ### Will 3D models slow down my WordPress site? Not when configured correctly. ExploreXR uses conditional asset loading (scripts only load on pages with a 3D model), multiple loading strategies (direct, lazy, and poster-driven for large files), and locally bundled decoders — so models are compressed and loading is deferred until needed. ### Does ExploreXR work with Elementor, Divi, and Avada? Yes. The free version works with all three via shortcode. ExploreXR Premium adds native drag-and-drop widgets and modules for Elementor, Divi, and Avada. ### Is AR (Augmented Reality) included in the free version? AR is available in [ExploreXR Premium](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/preise/) via the AR add-on. It supports iOS Quick Look, Android Scene Viewer, and WebXR. ### Is ExploreXR compatible with WooCommerce? WooCommerce product page integration is available in [ExploreXR Premium](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/preise/). ### Is there a free trial for Premium? Yes. You can try all 12 premium add-ons free for 14 days — no credit card required. [Request your trial here](https://expoxr.com/explorexr/trial-request/). ### Is ExploreXR compatible with WordPress 7? Yes. ExploreXR is tested against WordPress 7.x and follows WordPress Coding Standards to ensure long-term compatibility across every major WordPress release. ### What happens to my models if I deactivate the plugin? Your model files and all settings are preserved. Deactivating the plugin does not delete any data. Reactivate and everything will be exactly as you left it. ### Where can I get support? Free support is available on the [WordPress.org support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/explorexr/). Premium users have access to priority support via [expoxr.com/support/](https://expoxr.com/support/). ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/8da63901cf431694595f071ae82e4acf7d90a2dcb060aec6486653f072ad534a? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Fast setup, smooth 3D viewer](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fast-setup-smooth-3d-viewer/)󠁿 [in aller munde GmbH](https://profiles.wordpress.org/inallermunde/) டிசம்பர் 29, 2025 The viewer feels fast and stable.
