How to put YouTube video inserts on your WordPress blog

How to put YouTube video inserts on your WordPress blog

I found a great FREE plug-in which makes it a 2 second process and it was painless to install. It’s just one file in your WordPress WP-Content\Plugins folder and you are done.

Then you can insert any YouTube video to play from right within your own WordPress blog.

There’s even a WordPress control panel to set options like show the star ratings, or comments, or not. Cool!

I modded the script to stop the download option, which I was not comfortable with (copyright). I don’t think a blog should make snatching YouTube videos easy!

To use it, you just surround the YouTube URL with backets video and the YouTube video appears like magic in your post.

In the rich editor you you square brackets, in the raw code editor you use the normal html arrow markups.

WordPress Rich editor (WYSIWYG):
SQUAREBRACKETvideoSQUAREBRACKET you tube url SQUAREBRACKET/videoSQUAREBRACKET

WordPress Raw Code Editor:
<video>you tube url</video>

You can download the free wordpress video script from Rapidshare, a free file storage service.
