Update for the Razuna WordPress Plugin brings many useful features to your digital asset workflow

by on January 26, 2010 in Digital Asset Management, Razuna

As you might have seen, we released a Plugin for the very popular WordPress platform. With this plugin, users of Razuna can easily share content within Razuna trough a WordPress powered site. Now, the popular plugin has just been upgraded with many useful features;

Upload within WordPress to Razuna

That’s right. There is no longer a need to Upload the assets first to Razuna and then show them within WordPress. Just stay in WordPress and upload directly from WordPress to your Razuna. You can even choose in which folder you want to upload to. Now, that just made your workflow more efficient!

Embedded Player for Video and Audio

If you embed a Video or Audio in your WordPress site with the Razuna plugin you will now get the same Video and Audio player you know from Razuna. Meaning, there is no link back to Razuna, but just the Video or Audio playing right in your site or blog.

Widget Support

With the Widget Support you don’t even need to embed your asset in a page or blog post anymore. Have them in a convenient Widget ready to show in your sidebar. Now you can features an image or any asset right on where everyone can see it and manage it from one central location (Razuna).

Full support for local Razuna deployment

The latest release also brings full support for local deployment of Razuna. Say, you want to install Razuna along with your WordPress installation on your premises, you can now get those two local deployment up and running.

There are some “under the hood” improvements to make it easier  and faster for you to connect your WordPress site to Razuna and some small bug fixes along the way. But we think the before mentioned features will make it a benefit for any WordPress owner.

That said, we are already working on a new version which will bring dedicated settings for WordPressMU sites and more features. A big thank you goes out to Christof Dorner for developing and supporting the Razuna WordPress plugin!
