Ok here is working code: function get_yts() { $query_args = array( ‘s’ => ‘youtube.com/watch?v=’, ); $posts = get_posts( $query_args ); foreach ($posts as $p) { $input_line = $p->post_content; $output_array = array(); preg_match(‘/http(?:s?):\/\/(?:www\.)?youtu(?:be\.com\/watch\?v=|\.be\/)([\w\-\_]*)(&(amp;)?[\w\?=]*)?/’, $input_line, $output_array); print_r($output_array); } }
This isn’t possible, youtube doesn’t provide an embed with an open playlist. If it did, this isn’t something that could be resolved from the WordPress end, as it’s a Youtube OEmbed issue. You will need to refer to Youtube documentation or their support channels

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
Building a fake embed shortcode and then calling run_shortcode to do this makes no real sense. Try this instead: echo $wp_embed->shortcode(array(), $my_tour_video); Edit: Additionally, when I use your code on a test page, using that embed, I get no such error as you’re describing. If you can come up with a reproducible test case, then … Read more
