I have the same problem as Paul since the recent update with embedded YouTube shortcode not being saved.
Is it possible to rollback the update?
Any help would be appreciated

I’m sorry this has broken. I increased the security settings in 0.45.16, and it looks like that’s stopped the shortcodes working. I’ll try and release a fix this week.
This should be fixed in the latest version (0.45.18).
Thank you for your prompt response Mark.
I am sorry to report that I have updated to 0.45.18 but sermon browser still does not save the shortcode.
Thank you for the response and the plugin update Mark but, as Douglas said, it still does not appear to be working.
Mark, are you aware that the “Add Topic” and “Add Reply” buttons on the Sermon Browser Forum are not working? The only way to say something on the Forum would be to quote someone as that automatically opens up the reply box. However the Captcha is also not completable so you can’t submit the reply.
Douglas, as a temporary fix you could put the video embed code in the Description area like I have done on this sermon: http://test.gospelchurch.org.au/resources/sermons/?sermon_id=115.
Paul, thank you for your suggestion – it works and the only difference I can see is that it places the video above the sound.
This is much appreciated
Apologies that the update didn’t work. I believe it was fixed for shortcodes, but not for iframes.
The good news is that an update will be available later today which will fix the problem for iframes, too.
As a workaround in the meantime you can use one of the following:

This will work for all video sites that support oEmbed. There’s a list of such sites here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds, and it includes both Vimeo and YouTube.
In fact, this new method is probably simpler than the old one, so you may prefer to switch to it. (The old method will continue to be supported once I release the next update.)
Mark, for some reason the workaround does not work on my website. However, the update has proved successful and our YouTube video is correctly displayed.
Thank you for your ministry
Thanks Mark for your quick responses. Everything is working fine for me now.
