Hi,
it sounds like a possible conflict with some other javacript which shows the youtube player on the page.
Can you please provide the url to a page where we can see this happening so we can investigate?
My site is http://www.tecnoscimmiati.it , your plugin is temporarily disabled to avoid the problem
Right, any chance you can share with us the name of the plugin you’re using for showing Youtube videos on your pages if any? We’ll try to reproduce the problem on a local instance of WordPress.
I suppose that the problem is caused by a conflict with the plugin Jetpack by WordPress.com
I’ve tried embedding a Youtube video with a Shortcode as described in “Shortcode Embeds” and I can’t reproduce the problem you’re experiencing. What makes you think that Jetpack is the one causing the problem and how do you relate this to the Youtube video player not being rendered at all on the page?
i dont use the “Shortcode Embeds”, but simply the link at the video and Jetpack (or WordPress) embeds video.
I believe I’ve found what’s causing the problem. It’s all down to “pressing enter” or “return” soon after the URL when pasted in the body of your post. I believe this allows WordPress to correctly close the tag element around the URL hence the video embedded. I was able to reproduce the problem and to solve it in this way.
It’d be great if you could confirm this and we’d be very happy to have you back on board with our service.
I confirm! But to return to using the plugin, I have moficare all the old articles, or is there a simpler solution?
That’s great, thanks. From what I can read here http://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds it’s recommended to
Make sure that the URL is on its own line and not hyperlinked (clickable when viewing the post).
You might find a quick hack in the support forum. I’m afraid I can’t think of any other solution at the moment other that going quickly over your past posts and make sure that the Youtube URL’s are on a line of their own. For the coming posts we’d suggest embedding Youtube videos using shortcodes, this will avoid any unexpected behaviour of our plugin and also any other plugin that may run into the same problem.
