A look at the source discloses the possibilities you have: 2017 /** 2018 * Create default array of embed parameters. 2019 * 2020 * The width defaults to the content width as specified by the theme. If the … Read more
At the moment WordPress only recognises youtube.com/watch, youtube.com/playlist and youtu.be. However there is wp_oembed_add_provider; try something like wp_oembed_add_provider( ‘#http://(www\.)?youtube-nocookie\.com/embed.*#i’, ‘http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/oembed’, true ); (untested sorry). You could even overwrite the existing providers to redirect to -nocookie and then use the video shortcode as normal. And you can do this with add_filter(‘oembed_providers’, … ); too if you’d … Read more
First, make sure the YT api is enqueued() and added to the footer. function wp_enqueue_scripts__youtube_api() { wp_enqueue_script( ‘yt-player-api’, ‘http://www.youtube.com/player_api’, array(), false, true ); } add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘wp_enqueue_scripts__youtube_api’ ); Next, output your div somewhere on the page. <div id=”‘ . $postid . ‘player”></div> Then, hook into wp_footer and make sure you set the priority higher that … Read more

I’d recommend using a custom post type to handle this. You can add the custom post type and set it to only accept the YouTube url as content. Then you can display the “most recent” post from this setup with a custom loop on your home page. Here are a couple other good resources to … Read more
You can try this: add_filter( ’embed_oembed_html’, ‘custom_youtube_oembed’ ); function custom_youtube_oembed( $code ){ if( stripos( $code, ‘youtube.com’ ) !== FALSE && stripos( $code, ‘iframe’ ) !== FALSE ) $code = str_replace( ‘<iframe’, ‘<iframe class=”youtube-player” type=”text/html” ‘, $code ); return $code; } to target the YouTube oembed HTML output. When I embed this YouTube link (Kraftwerk) into … Read more
How to trigger an oembed cache regeneration The default cache time is 24 hours and we can adjust it with the oembed_ttl filter. But as you’ve noticed, expired cache is not enough to trigger a cache regeneration. The reason is this line in the WP_Embed class: if ( $this->usecache || $cached_recently ) { so to … Read more
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/18719 has a working patch now. Edit: Plugin code to do similar until patch gets in: wp_oembed_add_provider(‘#https://(www\.)?youtube.com/watch.*#i’, ‘http://youtube.com/oembed?scheme=https’, true); wp_oembed_add_provider(‘https://youtu.be/*’, ‘http://youtube.com/oembed?scheme=https’, false );
Simply put ‘); But note that there is also caching involved (embedding results are saved to custom field of the post, otherwise it would need to make HTTP request every time) and you are likely breaking that, unless you are doing it inside loop and close to where it normally works. Maybe even then.

So, something like this: <?php // tot necessary to set this but good if $url is coming from a function $url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jofNR_WkoCE”; // echo the function in your template to render the video echo wp_oembed_get( $url ); ?>
