Simple Video Embedder

Authors: James Lao, Jason Schuller

Easily embed video within your posts. Adds a widget to the posting screen that enables you to post videos by simply providing the URL to the video hosted on common video sharing websites.

Note: This plugin requires PHP5.

Sites supported:

  • YouTube (HD)
  • Vimeo
  • MetaCafe
  • Seesmic
  • Google Video
  • Revver
  • JW media player

The widget also provides a space to add custom embed code for posting videos from unsupported sites.

Version 1.3 adds: * Admin notice if you are using PHP4. * Updated JW Player code so that the ID on the videoContainer div does not conflict if there are multiple players on the page. * Added a p75HasVideo(post_id) function that checks to see if a given post has a video.

Version 1.2 adds: * XMLRPC identification

Version 1.1.1 adds: * Autoplay support for YouTube.

Version 1.1 adds several new features including:

  • An easy to use API for adding support for new video sharing sites. See video-embedder.php for details.
  • An options page setting many default values including width and height of the player.
  • Support for specifying a flashvars string for JW media player.
