How to sell live webinars (do paid webinars) in WordPress…

  • Paid live & evergreen webinars: with Stripe, PayPal and since 2.9.1.0+ also with WooCommerce
    See article and video for details

  • With KlickTipp and WebinarIgnition
    Connect the payment processor like PayPal or Digistore24 with KlickTipp.
    On the payment tag, sent a mail with the one-click registration link:
    Use the link in emails. Replace NAME/EMAIL with wildcards e.g. %Subscriber:CustomFieldFirstName% %Subscriber:EmailAddress%
    https://your-domain.com/live-webinar/?register-now&n=NAME&e=EMAIL

  • With MailChimp ect. and WebinarIgnition
    Connect the payment processor like PayPal MailChimp.
    On payment confirmation, sent a mail with the one click registration link:
    Use the link in emails. Replace NAME/EMAIL with wildcards e.g. MailChimp with |EMAIL| |FNAME| and the link looks like this with the parameter added.
    https://your-domain.com/live-webinar/?register-now&n=|FNAME|&e=|EMAIL|

User story, how a user gets automatically registered to a webinar:
Before the email is sent the parameter in the link are replaced by NAME/EMAIL of the user.
When user click the link in his postbox he will be auto-registered and redirected to the webinar confirmation page.

One-click registration only working at the moment with live webinars. If you want to sell also evergreen/automated/recorded Webinar then hide your webinar registration page and give access only to the customers. So you share the link to the registration page instead of using the one click registration link.

By the way: One click registration for evergreen is on our very long nice-to-have feature list. If you need it ASAP then we give you a quote and do it quicker.
We can develop a solution to start the webinar 5 minutes after the user clicked the link.
You can do a 6 Minutes countdown in your email and a 5 minutes countdown on the registration confirmation page.

Has WebinarIgnition a full integration with KlickTipp email marketing service?

Yes, it has. That means you know exactly when attended, how long stayed, when exited when rejoined and has seen the CTA1, CTA2, … (recorded webinars only).
With this data and the KlickTipp campaign which comes with the connection, you can automate and fine-tune your webinar user experience in every detail.

Some cases:

  • You can get them back when they drop out for any reason.
  • If too long outside the webinar and CTA not seen offer a new webinar date.
  • Sell if they have not bought but seen the whole webinar.
  • Upsell if they have seen the whole webinar and bought.

Yes you can, read more, about what is possible when creating paid webinars, here.

What is a webinar?

A video in a secure room with call-to-actions (CTAs). Since users have to register for a webinar, you can use it as a lead magnet.
There are live webinars and evergreen (also called automated) webinars. Live webinars can be a ZOOM meeting or Youtube live within a secured room.
Evergreen is often a recorded live webinar with the same offers and CTAs.
Both types of webinars are held at a specific time and on a specific date, which makes them more limited and more valuable.
Once started, a webinar cannot be paused, skipped or jumped forward in time, so you can build a nice strategy to sell and argue your topic.
Compared to a YouTube video, which can be watched by anyone without the content creator getting an email address. It can also be skipped, jumped forward in time and break the tension.

My personal opinion of Webinar ZOOM: = =
As I cannot test it for free, I cannot find a starting point with ZOOM Webinar. So I stay with ZOOM Meeting and integrate it with WebinarIgnition and get my flexible Webinar ZOOM solution. I also find the pricing structure not clear enough. So I stay with the unlimited WebinarIgnition, which has only one price for all features, participants, webinar time and participants at the same time, …

How can I report security bugs?

Ehtisham is the best. Truely. He's patient, knowledgeable, makes himself available at all times. The plug-in is 100% working because of his help. Don't hesitate to use this plug-in!! His help makes ALL the difference. You are not alone with this one, so try it today. HIGHLY recommended!

Ehtisham worked with me to help me figure out how to set up the zoom webinar on Webinar Ignition and clarified all my doubts as well. Appreciate his assistance in setting it up.
18 febrièr 2024
Webinar Ignition stands out as an economical yet effective webinar solution. With its affordability and dedicated support, it's the ideal choice for maximizing webinar impact without exceeding your budget. Whenever I needed help Mr Ihtasham Ul Haq always helped me resolving the issues. Experience the brilliance of Webinar Ignition today. Highly Recommended.

I started using Webinar Ignition in 2017 - as a user and value-added reseller. It was a great platform for the time, but with no further development done, it fell behind the industry standard. Now we're in the era of Webinar Ignition 2.0 so to speak and since Tobias and his team acquired the business, it has undergone so much innovative development on the back end. What we have now is a world class webinar product, fully integrated into the world's most popular CMS - WordPress. What you get is a fully customisable experience, unlimited webinars and options. You can run the webinars using the templates or integrate functionality into your own pages using short codes. If anything, there is almost too many options available and this can be bit much when learning the new system. Ehtisham from the web dev team has provided so much direct support to resolve questions and queries, and to get my first evergreen webinar funnels set up. So, what can you expect from this plugin - a global team of dynamic people who are passionate about their product and who really know their product and who will always go out of their way to help. A world-class webinar platform to rival any of the big brand names at a sweet price that is accessible to everyone's pocket. A system that is developing all of the time, an innovative leadership and people like Ehtisham, who go above and beyond every time. 100% recommended.

Webinar Ignition 1 on 1 Support was great. Resolved all my queries on time. Thank You. much appreciated. Nisha
29 Agost 2023
Ehtisham was helpful and friendly with the set-up of the plugin I had bought long time ago as a life time deal. Ownership had changed hands two or three times since then but the new owner seems to try hard to give a good support. I have not used it but the five stars will reflect his effort to help setting it up with me.

Helper texts

  • New: Added help text to change FROM EMAIL address and NAME EMAIL and link to KB article in settings.

  • Added: Global warning message when running « old » webinars $date_before = ‘2022-03-25’ that may not work as expected.
    Instead of getting frustrated and uninstalling the plugin, re-run the webinar from scratch. (Importing, duplicating will not solve anything).

Innovative method for loading CTA content with shortcodes

If you can not see video below, click to open changelog on wp.org please

CTA loading issues? Load all plugins/shortcodes in CTAs (please right click and open in new tab)

  • Solved problem: In webinar room not showing timed action content nicely
  • Background: The delayed/time based loading of the CTAs was sometimes breaking style and function of some plugins/shortcodes output.
  • Benefits: Automatically loading via iframe, by checking a box, solve this issue.
  • Yes, iframes in iframes working too.
  • What are CTAs?
    Call-to-Actions are actions in the webinar room to interact with your attendees, like in a live webinar
    CTAs in evergreen webinars are automated and time based (connected to the MP4/video time)
  • How you solved the problem of the form that on submit reloads the whole webinar room?
    By placing the form in an iframe the content in the iframe will reload only.
  • Is it complicated to load the content in an Iframe?
    You decide: If install/activate free « advanced iframe » plugin and click « enable » button, below the CTA content, is complicated πŸ˜‰

  • Article: CTA loading issues? Load all plugins/shortcodes in CTAs

PS: In combination with the already developed features automation in evergreen webinars raised to new heights.
To name some:

  • On reload the page, attendee continues video on the time left (MP4, WEBM,… only, not iframe)
  • Unlimited CTAs because all are shown inside the webinar room.
    CTAs can be any shortcodes appointment/survey/poll… forms, WooCommerce Shop, or an external sales page.
  • Send registered/attended status to CRM via webhook and do more specific marketing.

PPS: Is the iframe advanced plugin totally free?
Yes and no. At the moment from 10.000 views a months the iframe plugin shows a backlink.
And you can get rig of the link by buying the pro version At the moment 19$ one time

iframed CTA Roadmap:

  • Problem: Loading the Iframed CTA could take some time than loading the normal CTA
    Why? Because we hidden loading the whole page and show only the content you want to get.
    Workaround: If you want to show the CTA at 1:15 start the CTA at 1:00 time
    Solution: Preloading the CTA, out of the view of the user and show on CTA time.
  • As we have a cooperation with Michael the developer of Iframe advance free/pro he come up with more improvements
    Maybe you have some edge cases that need tweaking and we lucky to help you…

No Premium Plugin code needed as all is in OpenSource Version

  • From my own experience i like to test all before i buy.
  • Still buying is not needed until you reach the free 500 registrations per months or like webinars longer than 45 minutes.
  • Which other webinar service gives you so much for free?
  • Why? To play, test, make some money and give back. That maybe make some user able to start own lifelong business.
  • Also i like all to use e.g. the webhooks, paid webinars ect. and suggest features and improvements.
  • Current Ultimate Unlimited user will still get updates through Freemius.
  • Ultimate Unlimited user can install the free version and get faster updates.

Further fixes, improvements

  • Updated: German language file (Thank you Ronny)
  • Updated: All translations and fixes some strings.
    Please report not working or not good translation.
  • Freemius SDK update
    Fixes in clone resolution and multisite license activation
    Fixed update notice issue when free and premium versions of a plugin is running in parallel
  • Fixed: Webhook trigger on attended webinar when user was not instantly viewing the webinar. (Thanks Mathias)
    Trigger sent when user watched MP4 video for one second and more. Iframe video on visited webinar room.

Fixed: Redirect to first custom registration page when open the default registration page

(only redirect for non logged-in user, like your webinar visitors, so you as admin can still access the built in page)
Benefits: The not setup default registration page is not shown to your visitors.
If you use custom pages you need to manually select a default custom page and deselect the default page.

Workaround for existing and new webinars:

  • In an Webinar dashboard
  • Select a default custom registration page
  • Unselect built in registration page in list
  • Save
  • Redo when default still shown in the list.

I hope soon we can improve admin experience by setting the first custom page as default/fallback page.

The Unlimited Registration features is the milestone that needed the improvement

If you have issues go back to

3.03.2
2.16.3

by uploading the plugin via add new plugin and downgrade.

3.03.2 22.08.2023

  • Fix: Language special characters producing JS errors
    Benefits: You can run WebinarIgnition on any site language and all will be translated.
    Benefits: AR Test button working again
    Missing languages you can request DeepL translation in chat, or translate yourself via loco translate.
  • Fix: Webinar settings language resets on test AR settings

3.03.0 20.08.2023

  • Fixed: Issues with urdu and italian special characters by escaping all text in backend (make language strings not executable)
    Benefits: All languages can be used in backend.
    Tutorial: On create webinar you choose the language the content shown to the user is translated in. Like registration form/pages, email/txt reminder.
    The settings language follows the user and the site language. We think of removing the « also use the webinar language in settings » option. You can give us cases when this option is needed and we will fix it.
    At the moment on saving the webinar, only the settings language change back to the site/user language. Use the chat for suggestions.

Upcoming iframe loading of CTA content with shortcodes

    We are testing already final version.

3.02.1 26.07.2023

  • Fixed yeah: Show browser confirmation popup only when changes are unsaved (on backend)
    Why reloading was added? Because all settings are saved in one Array and the reload apply the settings.
