StreamTube – Video Streaming WordPress Theme Overview
StreamTube – Video Streaming WordPress Theme is a design for building a video sharing website, whether for a single brand publishing its own content or a multi-author platform where members upload, manage and monetize their videos.
The theme is developed by phpface and sold on ThemeForest. It uses a Video.js-based player, works with Elementor, and connects to Bunny.net Stream and Cloudflare Stream so that uploads can be processed and delivered by those services, with DynTube offered as a premium option.
For self-hosted video, StreamTube can encode uploads into HLS format using FFmpeg, and it also embeds content from YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion and other oEmbed sources. Members get a front-end dashboard for their videos, comments and profiles, and owners can set storage quotas, restrict content by user type and sell access through WooCommerce, memberships or points.

Who StreamTube – Video Streaming WordPress Theme Is Suitable For
StreamTube suits Canadian media startups, online course providers, churches and associations with video archives, and creators who want their own platform. A Vancouver e-learning company could restrict lessons to paying members, while a Toronto gaming collective could let members upload clips, follow each other and earn tips.
Its Dokan support makes it an option for a marketplace where several creators sell video content, and its news and vlog layouts suit smaller publishers. Owners should plan for streaming service costs and moderation from the start.
Important Notes About StreamTube – Video Streaming WordPress Theme
Only host content you own or have licensed, and publish upload terms with a takedown process for member videos. Subscriptions and paid access need clear pricing and cancellation terms, and mature content needs age ratings. On a multi-vendor setup, vendor terms should make sellers responsible for rights to what they sell, and affiliate links should be disclosed. Cookie consent and newsletter consent under Canada’s anti-spam law also apply. The owner is responsible for compliance.
Bunny.net, Cloudflare Stream and DynTube are separate paid services, and FFmpeg encoding needs a server that supports it. The vendor states it offers no refunds once the package has been downloaded. The licence covers one site.
