About Steil 3D Configurator
From the official readme · v1.1.0Description
Steil 3D Configurator adds a Gutenberg block that shows an interactive 3D product. Visitors can rotate the model, pick a colour per part and a finish, and send a quote request with their configuration (including a screenshot of what they built).
Everything is editable from the WordPress admin:
- Configurator products — a Custom Post Type. Upload a glTF/GLB or FBX model, let the editor detect its parts, and assign a colour palette, finishes and defaults to each. Reuse the same product across many pages.
- The block — pick a product, set the height, choose where the controls sit, and toggle the finish selector, reset button and quote form.
Built on Three.js. Works with classic and block (FSE) themes; styles are scoped so they don’t clash with your theme. No external services or CDNs — everything is bundled locally.
A sample “Lounge chair” product is created on activation so you can try the block immediately.
Installation
- Upload the plugin zip via Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, or copy the folder to
wp-content/plugins/. - Activate it. A sample configurator product is created automatically.
- Go to 3D Configurator to create your own product: upload a model (GLB or FBX), click “Detect parts from model”, and assign palettes.
- Add the Steil 3D Configurator block to any page and pick your product.
Frequently asked questions
What model formats are supported?
glTF/GLB 2.0 and FBX. GLB (a single binary file) is recommended for the smallest, most portable models.
How does part recolouring work?
Each “part” has one or more match terms. Any mesh or material whose name contains a match term is recoloured with that part’s palette. Use “Detect parts from model” to see the available names.
Where do quote requests go?
To the site admin email by default. Use the steil_cfg_quote_recipient filter to change it.
