 * Hello.
 * In a test post and in preview mode, I couldn’t see how Emed Privacy works. It
   appeared normal and ad hoc – even the embeded things. A Tweet.
 * Does this plugin work with a youtube embedding plugin, cache plugins or anything
   else?

 * Hi there!
 * If it doesn’t work, it seems that there is something wrong if you’re using either
   Classic Editor or the new Gutenberg Editor. Or are you using a page builder or
   something like that?
 * It should work with any embedding plugin if this plugin relies on the embed function
   of WordPress itself.
 * Caching is a bit more complicated because there are different states depending
   on your set settings. However, at least the functionality to add privacy to the
   embeds should work fine with caching plugins. What might not work is the checkboxes
   to display an embed provider’s content always automatically.

 * [@kittmedia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kittmedia/) – Hello. No, it 
   doesn’t work. It doesn’t show a checkbox to the visitors, to let them choose 
   if they want to see or not to see the embedded stuff.
 * I am using the classic editor, no pagebuildider.

 * Okay, then unfortunately, it’s hard for me to check what’s the problem was. We
   use the plugin on several sites and cannot reproduce this issue you had.

 * [@kittmedia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kittmedia/) – As far as I now
   there should be a kind of “layer” over the embedded media, right? You click on
   a “consent”-button, it goes away, the media appears. Visitors can see/watch it.
   Right, so far? If so, there was no layer on my site. There was no option people
   could click on anything. There weren’t any setting I could change or do anything
   wrong with it.

 * Yes, that’s correct. An overlay should be visible. Can you provide a screenshot
   on how you add the embed in the editor and a second one from the frontend after
   reloading the page?

 * [@kittmedia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kittmedia/) – OK, and there 
   was none. I don’t have the plugin installed anymore.
 * I used different social media: youtube with embedding code provded by YT.
    I 
   used this [https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/youtube-embed-plus/](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/youtube-embed-plus/)
   to embed videos. And I tried it w/ facebook and twitter.
 * “pure code” is added in the “code” mode / txt mode of the editor of course.
 * On the frontend there was nothing to see, except the media, I embedded, without
   an overlay.

 * So you’ve inserted a complete embed HTML code? Then there’s the source of this
   problem. The plugin relies on the embed detection of WordPress and only if WordPress
   itself detects it as embed – which it usually only does for plain links – Embed
   Privacy is currently able to do its job.
 * We will change this behaviour in the future, but stick to it at the moment.
