 * Hey,
 * Thanks for this amazing plugins. I decided to put the version 4.1.0 but I have
   a problem with my youtube shortcode :
 * [youtube id=”Enter video ID (eg. Wq4Y7ztznKc)” width=”600″ height=”350″]
 * All of my videos are replaced by this video : [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR2c266yWEA&feature=player_embedded](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR2c266yWEA&feature=player_embedded)
 * I have trying the Compatibility mode and Disable custom formatting but this doesn’t
   works.
 * Thanks,

 * Hi EdgeRayner,
 * try to use shortcode generator to generate this shortcode. There is no parameters
   called ID. This shortcode accepts video URL.

 * You can use plugin API to overwrite default URL parameter with your custom.

 * Also, you can create your custom shortcode with premium addon “Maker” and overwrite
   default youtube shortcode with it.

 * **How to remove shortcode from Shortcodes Ultimate**
    1. Add this code to your
   theme’s functions.php file

       function su_remove_youtube_shortcode( $shortcodes ) {
       	unset( $shortcodes['youtube'] );
       	return $shortcodes;
       }
       add_action( 'su/data/shortcodes', 'su_remove_youtube_shortcode' );
       ```
   
 * 2. Reactivate the plugin.
