Hi, my support expired. We are non-profit, building a video site using Streamit. There is a feature request and the organization find it hard to justify paying $80 for another 6 months just for this request. We build TV shows based on YouTube channel videos using ‘year uploaded’ as seasons. Everything was fine, we built the seasons from 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, etc. But there is a problem now since it’s 2026. We created 2026 as new season, but it is placed at the bottom (after 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, etc). And we cannot event drag and drop the season to be on top after 2025. It makes more sense that 2026 appear at first, but to do that, we have to now remove 2025, 2024, 2023, and other previous years, re-add 2026 first and link to the shows in 2026, then redo 2025, 20024, 2023, and so on, which are in the hundreds.

See where I am getting? When we do seasons, we should be able to drag and drop it in between top and bottom. We hope you consider updating this to allow drag and drop seasons according to our custom ordered list.

Hello, please generate a ticket for this issue. We will provide the solution through the ticket. Thank you.

Ok we just did, even though our support expired? Anyways, we looked through documentation, looked at streamit options, etc, no such feature exist, so it’s got to be feature request, right?

Hello, Please create a ticket, and we’ll provide a solution if possible. Thank you.

I am currently planning to build a video streaming platform based on the Streamit WordPress Theme. I would like to evaluate the feasibility and cost of upgrading the platform to a Multi-vendor model.

Please provide a technical assessment and a preliminary quote based on the following requirements:

1. Architectural Approach Do you recommend integrating existing plugins (e.g., Dokan Pro, WCFM) with UI customization, or building a fully custom solution?

How will you ensure that videos uploaded by creators are automatically synced to our cloud storage (e.g., Bunny.net or AWS S3)?

2. Core Functional Requirements Creator Dashboard: A dedicated front-end UI for creators to upload videos, manage metadata, and set pricing (Pay-Per-View or Membership access).

Commission & Split System: A system that automatically calculates the revenue split between the platform and the creators (e.g., a 30/70 split).

Withdrawal Management: A portal for creators to view sales reports and request payouts, with an admin approval interface.

3. Payment Gateway Integration We plan to use [Insert Payment Gateway, e.g., Stripe / ECPay]. Please confirm if the gateway supports automated multi-vendor splitting. If not, how will the system track and handle transaction fees?

4. Timeline and Budget What is the estimated development time (Man-hours) for this project?

Does the quote include maintenance and compatibility support for future Streamit theme updates?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in Streamit. Please find the answers to your questions below:

1. Yes, it is possible. However, it will require code modifications and custom development to properly integrate with Streamit. Adding WCFM and Dokan Pro is a great idea for building a multi-vendor system. Currently, Bunny CDN is implemented for admin-side video uploads only. To enable multi-vendor video uploads, a proper workflow will need to be developed.

2. At present, Membership and Pay-Per-View (PPV) features are available for users. If you plan to allow multiple users to upload videos (similar to YouTube), additional workflows will need to be set up along with Membership and PPV integration. Revenue management can also be implemented, including dashboards for both admin and users, as well as withdrawal options. The main goal would be to establish a complete workflow for both admin and users, similar to YouTube.

3. Yes, this payment setup is possible with Streamit. Stripe is already supported, and transaction fees can be configured and deducted directly from the total payment.

4. For estimation and detailed discussion regarding your requirements, please contact our business support team: [https://teams.live.com/l/invite/FEAh18wQSi9roOzkA8](https://teams.live.com/l/invite/FEAh18wQSi9roOzkA8)

Where can I set the player to be the same width as the video itself? I see that the player currently supports 16:9 and 16:10 videos automatically.

Since I will only be working with 16:9 videos, I would like to configure it that way. Thanks

Hello,

Could you please generate a support ticket here: [http://iqonic.desky.support/](http://iqonic.desky.support/)

This will help us assist you more quickly, as we need to check which player URL you are using. Our support team will then be able to guide you better and faster.

Thank you.

Do the new template updates allow me to put additional images and text on show and episode pages with Elementor?

Hello,

Yes, you are able to edit all Elementor-supported pages, and you can add images and other widgets there. However, inner pages such as Single TV Show and Single Episode pages cannot be edited because they are 100% dynamic, so they are not supported in Elementor.

If you still have any queries, feel free to ask us.

Thank you.

To set the mobile view bottom icons, please follow this path:

Hi,

I’m using the Streamit theme for Live Streaming and have successfully created a TV Channel with a working HLS stream. However, the channel guide (EPG section) is not displaying below the player.

It appears that the theme requires an external XMLTV API feed for EPG data.

Can you confirm:

Does this version of Streamit support manual EPG entry, or is XMLTV API the only supported method?

Is there a built-in way to generate or manage EPG data without using an external API?

Is the demo site using a preloaded XMLTV feed or a different EPG configuration?

I want to confirm the correct configuration method before proceeding with an external EPG integration.

Thank you.

Great support experience with this plugin.

We had an issue creating video categories (HTTP 419), and Nandish Dhameliya provided clear and accurate guidance pointing directly to the permission callback mismatch in the routes file. The fix was precise and technically correct, and everything is now working perfectly.

Fast response, solid technical understanding, and professional communication.

Highly recommended.

i have a question. what is the setup for video creators to configure their own membership Levels and which plugins to use?

Hello Sir,

Currently, in Streamit, you can only add content from the admin side. It does not support content creators or user-generated uploads by default. We do provide support for the PMPro (Paid Memberships Pro) plugin, which allows you to create memberships for users.

In Streamit, custom code changes would be required to enable user-side video uploads and allow other users to watch that content. For this setup, creators would typically need to purchase a specific membership (for example, a “Content Upload” membership).

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you.

Hi, if we upload our own videos instead of YouTube or Vimeo, will all the theme features continue to work properly? Also, could you please confirm how this will impact the theme’s performance?

In Streamit, you can upload and stream your own videos without using any third-party platform. With this method, all features work properly. However, theme performance can be affected if the server capacity is low, especially when uploading long video files. By using a server with sufficient capacity, you can smoothly upload and stream long videos on your site without any issues.

I would like to suggest two capabilities to keep the viewer’s attention. 1) a feature that would allow a particular movie to be played at a given time only, say 1/1 – 1/31. 2) A feature that would allow the randomized placement of videos in a given lineup so that the user sees different videos with every log in.

This might keep them coming back to find something fresh easily, over and over.

Hello sir,

Thank you for your suggestion and for taking the time to share your valuable ideas with us.

We will include this feature in our future updates. The timeline is not fixed yet, but it will be implemented going forward.

Thank you.

Hello, I’m interested in your theme, but I’m getting this error in your demo when connecting via VPN: 500 Service Unavailable The server is temporarily busy, try again later! Is this a general error or just an error that occurs when connecting via VPN?

Hello Sir,

Could you please let us know which VPN you are using and which country/location is selected when you encounter the error?

This information will help us reproduce the issue and investigate it more accurately.

Thank you.

Is it possible to remove the login and signup functionality as well as the subscription model? I want viewers to be able to directly access the website and watch movies without logging in. Also, can movies and episodes be added manually to the platform

Hello Sir,

Yes, in Streamit, we provide admin-level settings that allow you to fully control access and restrictions.

1. Available Options in Streamit:

  • You can disable login, registration, and membership
  • Users can watch movies, videos, and TV shows without authentication
  • Content can be accessed directly without any restrictions, if enabled by admin

2. Content Management:

  • You can manually add all content
  • You can also use YouTube URLs for videos
  • Streamit supports direct import options from multiple platforms

All these settings are available from the admin panel, and you can configure them as per your requirements.

For better understanding, I am sharing the official Streamit documentation, where we have added screenshots of the admin-side settings explaining how everything works:

Documentation Link: https://documentation.iqonic.design/streamit/getting-started/wordpress-information

Does your theme support web series content with a proper season and episode structure (for example, Season 1 – Episode 3)?

I would like to know if it is possible to organize videos by seasons and episodes, and allow users to smoothly switch to the next episode or next season after finishing one episode.

Additionally, I want the season and episode list to be visible below the video player, so users can directly select and switch to any episode or season from there without leaving the page.

This will help provide a better and more user-friendly viewing experience. Please let me know whether this feature is supported by default in your theme or can be added through customization.

Hello sir,

Yes, the TV show works exactly as defined. We provide season-wise episode settings, where you can set episodes from 1 to N and arrange them as per your requirements.

Under Episode Settings, we also provide an Episode Overlay option. When an episode ends, an overlay popup appears and automatically redirects to the next episode, with a Watch Next Episode button available.

We support 4 content types: Movies, Videos, TV Shows (Episodes), and Live Channels. Custom requirements are also possible in Streamit.

Thank you.

I make a site for your buyer, although I want to buy your template myself, but many things just stop doing it. 1. No digital pagination added in categories. With a large number of films, the visitor will not scroll for a long time and will leave the site. 2. Bad pattern optimization. The site takes a long time to open. 3. Few SEO plugins that will work with your template. 4. Adding filtering by you. Why it is not possible to edit it in the panel and what is the worst, it is not possible to turn it off at all, who does not need it.

Hello Sir,

Thank you for your interest in Streamit.

Yes, you are right. We have recently added many new features, such as filters. Please find the details below:

1. Pagination, Search, and Filters : We provide two types of pagination: Load More button–based pagination & Auto-scrolling pagination

We also provide global search in the header, so if users know the content name, they can easily search and find it. If users are browsing content to discover something to watch, they can scroll through all content. To help users find preferred content more easily, we have added filter options.

2. Demo Setup and Performance : In the demo, we showcase all types of widgets so clients can explore all functionalities. After setup, you can customize the homepage as per your requirements, which will reduce site load time. Additionally, using optimized, low-size images will further improve site performance.

3. SEO Plugin Behavior : The SEO plugin works automatically on all pages. However, you need to first add your content with proper titles, descriptions, and images. This will help improve your site’s SEO score.

4. Filter Page Customization : Currently, the filter page is not editable because it is dynamic. In a future update, we plan to provide admin-side settings to enable or disable filter page functionality.

If you still have any questions, please feel free to ask us.

Thank you.

Question. Can the StreamIt plugin be used independently of the Streamit Theme? What I want to do is integrate StreamIt features in to an existing Wordpress website and theme.

Hello,

To integrate Streamit functionality into an existing site, several changes are required. If you are not using the Streamit theme, you would need to develop a custom frontend to display movies and related content, because the pages, layouts, and designs are part of the theme, not the plugin.

The Streamit plugin includes only the core functionality and admin features, not the frontend design.

If you want to use Streamit functionality with your existing theme, it is possible, but it will require custom development and code changes using the Streamit plugin.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us.

Thank you.

Thank you for reply. After I submitted the question, I thought that most likely for example the Elementor widgets, those I would have to develop on my own. I could, but would be time consuming. So I decided I will just create a sub-site on my multi-site setup and purchase run the theme. I would prefer not, but it’s ok. This way I can have a TLD specifically for it. I am interest in the mobile and TV apps. Some years ago I did ask about the TV apps and I see that one has been developed for the non WordPress version some time now. So I assume soon enough the WordPress version of the TV app will be available.

Hello sir,

As per your plan and requirements, since you need both a mobile application and a TV app with Streamit Web, you currently have two available options. Please review them below:

1. Streamit WordPress - With the Streamit WordPress theme, you can create a sub-domain(sub-site) for your existing website and set it up as a streaming site using Streamit. The same site can also be used as a backend for the mobile application. - However, in the future we plan to launch the Streamit WordPress TV app as soon as possible.

2. Streamit Laravel - With the Streamit Laravel version, you can also create a sub-domain(sub-site) of your existing website to run a streaming platform. This Laravel setup can be used as a backend for the mobile application. - In the Streamit Laravel version, the TV app is already available and ready to use.

If you have any further questions or need help choosing the best option, please feel free to ask us. We’re happy to help you

Hello,

I purchased this but never used it because lack of HLS support back then but now It seems it does.

1) I am confused by this https://codecanyon.net/item/streamit-live-video-streaming-player-wordpress-plugin/33309259 plugin. Is this plugin for Live TV only? or even if I want to use HLS for Movies/Shows I need this plugin too?

2) Is there any chance we get TV app for wordpress anytime soon?
