Unlike other YouTube plugins, It doesn’t replace your on-page video embed code with JavaScript/HTML code. Loading a video with JavaScript doesn’t provide any video SEO benefit as a search engine crawler will only see some code instead of the actual video object.
Simple YouTube Embed is easy to use because there is no setting to configure. It uses the oEmbed API so your videos will be responsive and provide all the benefits that core WordPress YouTube embed has to offer. YouTube videos on your website will continue to work even if you choose to deactivate the plugin.

<h3>How to Use the YouTube Embed Plugin in WordPress</h3>
Create a new post/page and add a YouTube block. Copy and paste the YouTube video URL into it. For example:
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g
</code></pre>
YouTube Video Autoplay
In order to automatically play a video you can add “autoplay=1” to your YouTube URL.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&autoplay=1
</code></pre>
Related YouTube Videos
In order to disable related videos from showing you can add “rel=0” to your YouTube URL.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&rel=0
</code></pre>
YouTube Video Controls
If you do not want to show player controls you can add “controls=0” to your YouTube URL.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&controls=0
</code></pre>
YouTube Video Fullscreen
If you do not want to allow fullscreen option in the player you can add “fs=0” to your YouTube URL.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&fs=0
</code></pre>
YouTube Video Mute
To start a video in the muted state you can add “mute=1” to your YouTube URL.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&mute=1
</code></pre>
YouTube Video Playlist
If you want to turn a video into a single-video playlist you can add “playlist=VIDEO_ID” to your YouTube URL.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&playlist=Vpg9yizPP_g
</code></pre>
YouTube Video IV Load Policy
To not show video annotations by default you can add “iv_load_policy=3” to your YouTube URL.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&iv_load_policy=3
</code></pre>
Video annotations are shown by default.
<h3>YouTube Advanced Parameters</h3>
With the Advanced Parameters extension you can use additional advanced parameters in your YouTube videos.
color
This parameter specifies the color that will be used in the player’s video progress bar to highlight the amount of the video that the viewer has already seen.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&color=white
</code></pre>
Valid parameter values are red and white, and, by default, the player uses the color red in the video progress bar.
Note: Setting the color parameter to white will disable the modestbranding option.
disablekb
Setting this parameter’s value to 1 causes the player to not respond to keyboard controls. The default value is 0.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&disablekb=1
</code></pre>
end
This parameter specifies the time, measured in seconds from the start of the video, when the player should stop playing the video. The parameter value is a positive integer.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&end=10
</code></pre>
The time is measured from the beginning of the video and not from the value of the start player parameter.
start
This parameter causes the player to begin playing the video at the given number of seconds from the start of the video. The parameter value is a positive integer.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&start=5
</code></pre>
loop
This parameter causes the video to play repeatedly. The parameter value is a positive integer (e.g. loop=”1″).
In order for the loop feature to work, the video needs to be turned into a single-video playlist as well.
<pre><code>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpg9yizPP_g&playlist=Vpg9yizPP_g&loop=1
</code></pre>

Simple YouTube Embed

Embed YouTube videos in WordPress beautifully. Embed YouTube video with a URL or shortcode and customize the player using this YouTube embed plugin.

ThinkSmall

This minimalist lazyloader makes your video pages slimmer and faster. SlimFast replaces heavy YouTube iframes by their thumbnail. <a href="https://thinksmall.me" rel="nofollow ugc">View a demo.</a>
<h4>How to use it?</h4>
Paste the url of the YouTube video in a page (for example <code>https://youtu.be/neV3EPgvZ3g</code>). WordPress will convert it into a video iframe. SlimFast will take it from there and replace the iframe by the video thumbnail and a button to play the video. This will also work for all pre-existing videos embedded this way.
<h4>What is lazyloading and why is it important to use it on YouTube videos?</h4>
Lazyloading is a technique to make your pages load faster, by only loading required elements when the visitor requests them. The page speed is a key element in Google’s algorithm to rank pages.
Embedding a YouTube iframe will load a lot of scripts for every single video and will slow down your page, especially if your visitor doesn’t have a top connection. Hence the need for lazyloaders!
2 types of lazyloaders exist:
<ul>
<li>
Those who load the video iframe when the visitor scrolls down to the point where he sees the video on his screen.
</li>
<li>
Those who load the iframe after the visitor clicks the Play button. SlimFast is one of those. We believe it is the best approach to let your visitor decide if he wants to click or not, and only load the iframe if he clicks.
</li>
</ul>
See a comparison of performances with/without SlimFast in the “Screenshots” section.
<h4>Why is SlimFast better than other YouTube lazyloading plugins?</h4>
<ol>
<li>
Because they require 2 click to play a video: 1 to load the iframe, 1 to play it! This is actually the reason why we built this plugin: SlimFast loads & play videos with 1 single click, even on mobile! Think about your User Experience, it’s crucial. Your visitors are frustrated if they have to click twice on that Play button to launch a video!
</li>
<li>
Because it doesn’t use any custom shortcode. WordPress already recognises YouTube videos when you paste their urls. SlimFast takes it from there. Why bother with shortcodes? Think long term! Shortcodes are painful if you decide to drop a plugin. If you’re unhappy with SlimFast, just deactivate it and all your YouTube videos will be back to their default iframes.
</li>
<li>
Because we’ve made it as light as possible! The plugin only adds 3 small scripts (YouTube iframe API, 1 custom javascript and 1 css) to your pages containing YouTube videos, for an extra weight of 4KB only. And nothing will be loaded if your pages don’t have YouTube videos! This is why you’ll only see 1 custom setting. We decided to sacrifice all settings (such as playlists support and video titles) that would add unnecessary weight. How many options do you really need on your WordPress plugins?
</li>
</ol>
<h4>Is it possible not to use SlimFast on specific videos?</h4>
Of course! Juste paste the iframe code provided by YouTube (for example <code><iframe width= »560″ height= »315″ src= »https://www.youtube.com/embed/neV3EPgvZ3g » frameborder= »0″ allow= »accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture » allowfullscreen></iframe></code>) and SlimFast will leave it intact. Do it if you feel like certain videos deserve features we’ve cut.
<h4>What is in the code?</h4>
<ul>
<li>Just 3 little scripts (YouTube iframe API, 1 custom javascript and 1 css).</li>
<li>These will be loaded on your pages containing YouTube videos for an extra weight of 4KB only. Nothing will be loaded on pages that don’t host YouTube videos.</li>
<li>No JavaScript library such as jQuery is used to ensure a maximum compatibility with all themes.</li>
</ul>
