When you view your published post, page or widget the shortcode will be automatically replaced with a corresponding YouTube video.
Shortcode Example
<pre><code>[niceyoutubelite id="UXtjrb0WBhc"]
</code></pre>
Note, id is the YouTube video id of your video.
Shortcode Syntax
[niceyoutubelite attribute_name=”attribute_value”]
Shortcode Attributes
The Nice Youtube Lite plugin provides options through the inclusion of 3 shortcode attributes. These attributes are as follows.
<ul>
<li>id</li>
<li>width</li>
<li>aspect_ratio</li>
</ul>
Each attribute can be set in the shortcode by including the attribute name followed by an equals sign and the attribute value in quotes. You can set a default value for all of the attribute, excluding the video “id”, on the admin settings page.
Attribute Example
<pre><code>[niceyoutubelite id="UXtjrb0WBhc" width="320"]
</code></pre>
Shortcode Attribute Definitions
id
[niceyoutubelite id=”YouTube_Video_Id”]
Sets the video id for the YouTube video you wish to display. The YouTube video id is displayed in your browsers address bar when you are watching a video on YouTube. To obtain the video id, go to your video manager on YouTube and simply play your video. Look at your browser’s address bar. You will see a web address that looks like the following.
<pre><code>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXtjrb0WBhc
</code></pre>
The portion of the address after the “v=” is the video id.
Example
<pre><code>[niceyoutubelite id="UXtjrb0WBhc"]
</code></pre>
Notice that the id value is the same as the value that comes after the “v=” portion of the YouTube video URI.
width
[niceyoutubelite width=”640″]
Use width to set the YouTube video player width.
aspect_ratio
[niceyoutubelite aspect_ratio=”16:9″]
