Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a WordPress plugin or standalone PHP script?

ViewShark is a standalone PHP script, not a WordPress plugin. It runs on its own PHP/MySQL stack.

Does it include video transcoding/encoding?

The script handles video upload and playback. Server-level FFmpeg is typically required for transcoding multiple resolutions.

Can I customize the design?

Yes. The script is Elementor Pro compatible, allowing visual page building. Developers can also modify the PHP templates directly.

Are updates automatic?

Updates are provided manually — you’ll receive new versions and apply them to your installation.

Is there a demo available?

Yes, a demo preview is available so you can evaluate the frontend and admin experience before purchase.
