<p>It’s the same oEmbed functionality you know and love from your WP 2.9 post editor, now enabled for comments!</p>
<p>Your comments can now embed content from the following sites:</p>
<ul>
<li>YouTube</li>
<li>Blip.tv</li>
<li>Vimeo</li>
<li>DailyMotion</li>
<li>Flickr</li>
<li>Hulu</li>
<li>Viddler</li>
<li>Qik</li>
<li>Revision3</li>
<li>Photobucket</li>
<li>Scribd</li>
<li>WordPress.tv</li>
</ul>
<p>How do you use the plugin?  Simple!  Input <strong>any</strong> URL from one of the listed sites above into a comment.</p>
<p>When the comment is posted and approved, the URL automagically transforms into the embedded content.</p>
<h3>Blacklist feature</h3>
<p>This feature allows you to blacklist websites from being processed by oEmbed.</p>
<p>For example, say I wanted to block YouTube links from being embedded.</p>
<p>Open <code>oembed-config.php</code> in a text editor and add the following line to the end:</p>
<pre><code>$oembed_comments['blacklist'][] = 'youtube.com';
</code></pre>
<p>This will blacklist all links from YouTube.com from being parsed.</p>
<h3>Known issues</h3>
<ul>
<li>Hyperlinking an oEmbeddable link and inputting the same link in plain text will show the oEmbeddable item three times (two times if using anchor text) (not many people will do this)</li>
</ul>

Disable Embeds

Works exactly as advertised. Thank you.

That does it without any extra clutter added to the admin. Thanks :)

Perfect

An easy way to drop some weight if you don’t need the functionality that the plugin disables. For me this has been a “set and forget” plugin. 

Does what it says, has been reliable

thanks

Finally, a no-fuss plugin that does exactly what it promises! Disable Embeds by Pascal Birchler is perfect if you're tired of WordPress's automatic embed features slowing down your site. Just activate and boom - no more unwanted embeds cluttering your content or others embedding your posts without permission. Love how it removes all the JavaScript bloat too. The best part? It's reversible - just deactivate when you need embeds back. Clean, lightweight, and effective!
