    Morgend Diana;
    I’m afraid I can’t access those pages; seems I have to provide a password. Do you have an unprotected page where this happens or can you briefly disable it on one of those pages?

    Oh, oops! That’s true. You can enter the password ‘test’, that should work ? 🙂

    Thank you for your very quick reply!

    test works 🙂

    I can confirm the thumbnail is not loading from the CDN, so you’ll have to either:
    * configure the CDN not to act on requests that contain wp-content/plugins/wp-youtube-lyte/lyteCache.php (most CDN plugins don’t act on .php anyhow)
    * OR disable “cache thumbnails locally)

    hope this helps,

    Hi Frank,

    Thanks!! This helps indeed – now I know where to look 🙂

    I’m trying to exclude the lyteCache.php from the CDN. This I can do via a screen within the plugin. It gives me the options to exclude a page (URL) or a user-agent. There are some already filled in by the plugin, such as a user-agent containing ‘WhatsApp’. Though, when I add ‘lyteCache.php’ or ‘lyteCache’ to the user-agent exclusion, or the URL to the pages, so a URL containing: ‘wp-content/plugins/wp-youtube-lyte/lyteCache.php’, the thumbnails are still not shown.

    You can view the settings here: https://bit.ly/2KE4QV9

    I reckon I’m messing up the names here 🙂 Am I in the right spot to make this change? And / or what should I fill in?

    About not caching thumbnails locally, did you mean this is possible via YouTubeLyte? I can’t find this.

    THANKS again!

    Diana

    Found it!!

    I’m sorry, I have to make a correction: the CDN plugin actually didn’t give me that screen. That screen came from a different plugin where I could exclude certain caching. Though, that other plugin was not causing the problem.

    So I was in the wrong place with the settings 🙂 The CDN plugin doesn’t give me options to exclude specifically lyteCache.php, BUT: it did give me the option to exclude Media files completely. And that did the trick! YouTubeLyte works now!

    Thank you Frank for thinking along!
