Plugin Features
Exhibitions on every display. Web Version 4.
WallMuse Plugin adds exhibition-grade curation and multi-screen playback to any WordPress site. Install the plugin, upload your works, add one shortcode — no coding, no developer, no platform in between. A free plan covers Creative Commons and public-domain collections; Pro and Studio unlock copyrighted content, synchronised multi-display playback, and CDN delivery. The frontend is open source (MIT).

- French translation — full fr_FR translation for all admin UI strings.
- Storage quota gate — uploads that would exceed the plan's storage allowance are rejected before writing any data, with a clear error message in the curator.
- 1.2.9 — French translation groundwork, quota logic
- 1.2.x — WooCommerce subscription tier sync, guest session endpoint, cleanup environments endpoint
- 1.1.x — Shortcode attributes for sign-in prompt, multilingual URL support
Coming soon · Studio
Natural language curation. Describe an exhibition in plain text — "3-track show of Zimmermann calligraphy, sorted by date" — and the Curation Wizard sets filters, track count and ordering automatically. The interface is already built; the feature will be activated in a future Studio update.
AI capabilities — additional AI-assisted features in development. Details to follow on release.
