Modelora – 3D Product & Model Viewer

Modelora adds interactive 3D product visualization to WordPress and WooCommerce. Upload a 3D model once, attach it to any product gallery, and shoppers can rotate, zoom, and inspect the product from every angle — right on the product page.

Built for store owners, not developers: no coding required, and the viewer is performance-focused with lazy loading so product pages stay fast.

WooCommerce product gallery integration

Attach 3D models directly inside the native WooCommerce product gallery. Models appear as 3D slides alongside your product images, with lazy loading and automatic resource cleanup when shoppers browse away. You can upload straight from your computer in the product editor or pick from your 3D library, and preview every model before inserting it.

Display 3D models anywhere

Use the Gutenberg block, the [modelora_viewer] shortcode, or the Elementor widget to embed an interactive 3D viewer on any page or post. Compare two models side by side with [modelora_compare].

Supported 3D model formats

GLB, GLTF, and USDZ files render directly in the browser. FBX, OBJ, STL, and DAE files can be uploaded and converted to web-friendly GLB with free external tools (such as Blender or Babylon.js Sandbox) before upload.

Viewer features

Studio, Outdoor, and Dark lighting presets, auto-rotate, fullscreen mode, augmented reality (AR) on supported devices, camera controls, and mobile touch support.

Performance first

The 3D runtime loads deferred, models load lazily, and hidden gallery slides release GPU resources automatically — so 3D never slows down the rest of your store.

External Services

The ‘Load Demo Model’ feature securely downloads a sample 3D file from modelviewer.dev to quickly demonstrate plugin functionality.
– What the service is: modelviewer.dev is a developer resource for the web component.
– What data is sent: No personal data is sent. An HTTP request is made to download the demo model (Astronaut.glb) when the user clicks ‘Load Demo’.
– Terms of Service: https://modelviewer.dev/
– Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy (ModelViewer is maintained by Google)

All other 3D rendering dependencies (including Draco WebAssembly decoders *.wasm and KTX2 transcoders *.wasm) are bundled locally within the plugin. These WASM binary files are strictly necessary for decoding compressed 3D geometries and textures without connecting to an external CDN, ensuring full privacy and compliance with WordPress.org tracking guidelines.

Model conversion: Users can convert 3D models (FBX, OBJ, STL, DAE) to GLB format using external tools like Babylon.js Sandbox, Blender, or similar software, then upload the GLB files to WordPress.

Included Demo Assets

The plugin includes a sample 3D model used strictly as a demonstration asset. All rights to the model remain with the original creator.
