Shorts Video Embedder for YouTube

A plugin to embed and display YouTube Shorts from a channel via a shortcode.

<p>Features Include:</p>
<ul>
<li>The ability to add one or more videos directly in to a page, post or any of your own custom post types using the video URL (not the embed code) or ID and a short code. Currently YouTube and Vimeo are supported, using the [responsive_youtube] and [responsive_vimeo] shortcodes, respectively.</li>
<li>Fully responsive so the video’s viewport will fill the width of the containing area and scale depending on screen size. No need to set a width and height, just set the width of the div your content sits in.</li>
<li>YouTube videos have a shortcode attribute that lets you turn “related videos” on or off. “Related Videos” are the links that tile across the viewport when a video has completed playing.</li>
<li>YouTube videos also support light and dark themes, autoplaying, showinfo, and modest branding (which removes most YouTube brand imagery).</li>
<li>Vimeo videos can have the video portrait, title, and byline shut off.</li>
<li>A comprehensive settings screen which explains all the options and shows you the syntax of the shortcodes.</li>
</ul>
<p>Example Usage:</p>
<p>For a YouTube video, you can specify either full URL to the video or just the unique video ID, or the YouTube sharing or embed URLs, like this:</p>
<pre><code>[responsive_youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbCr0UyoFJA ]
[responsive_youtube NbCr0UyoFJA]
[responsive_youtube https://youtu.be//NbCr0UyoFJA ]
[responsive_youtube https://www.youtube.com/embed/NbCr0UyoFJA ]
</code></pre>
<p>And if you want to specify whether or not you’d like the “related videos” to display, you can use the “rel” or “norel” parameters in the shortcode syntax, like this:</p>
<pre><code>[responsive_youtube NbCr0UyoFJA norel]
[responsive_youtube NbCr0UyoFJA rel]
</code></pre>
<p>The rel and norel tags will override whatever you have set in the plugin settings screen for that specific video only.</p>
<p>Similarly, for a Vimeo video, you can use the full video player URL or just the video ID, like this:</p>
<pre><code>[responsive_vimeo https://vimeo.com/29506088 ]
[responsive_vimeo 29506088]
</code></pre>
<p>There is a more complete treatment of the shortcode syntax in the settings screen of the plugin itself.</p>
<h4>Requirements</h4>
<ul>
<li>WordPress 3.0 +</li>
</ul>
