My suggestion : Make a specific video splash template inside of your WordPress theme incorporating a link to visit the rest of your site. Put in your web directory a specific CSS file for full screen video support. Make a new empty page using the splash template and use this page as your homepage in … Read more
I was able to get all the embedded media content within a post using a new WordPress hook (3.6+). get_media_embedded_in_content();
Embeds are cached in hidden post meta fields with _oembed_* keys. You could retrieve all of meta (with get_post_custom() for example) and try to get info from it. However, from quick look at my test data it seems that duplicates are not uncommon there (might have to do with either WP version changes or embed … Read more
So, apparently, I needed to read a little bit more before I posted my question. After I posted the question, I ran across: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=258650, which is what I incorporated into the code I was using.

I’d use the plugin Tubepress. It has a lot of options to suit your needs, such as a sidebar widget that can play your videos in a lightbox for example. I used it a few times, it’s quite powerfull and customizable.
use this in your .htaccess file: ForceType applicaton/octet-stream and it will force mp4 download from links edit: force will force download if it’s a link, but if you include the mp4 file in an object like an html5 video element, it will be played.
What you’re trying to do is likely to upset shared hosters regardless because generating video is not cheap from a computational resource standpoint, and most rules on a shared host are because there isn’t much in the way of resources to begin with. You would be best carting your images off to a service that … Read more
If you’ve hardcoded the youtube video’s in your markup then one solution would be adding ?autoplay=1 to the src url. For example: src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/i8GZwagNZss?autoplay=1″ Let me know if you need further help.
Okay the thing is that the oembed endpoint seems not to support any other than the default parameters. So it seems that all you can do is parse the response and add in your parameters to the iframe src. This should do it (untested) function wpse_218836_add_youtube_parameter( $return, $data, $url ){ if ( $data->provider_name === ‘YouTube’){ … Read more
