This is likely the one and only plugin you will ever need to handle video embeds on your WordPress site(s). It goes far beyond just making your videos responsive! Supports close to everything you can imagine, still keeping it easy & simple. Official Page GitHub Page Documentation If you find this plugin useful please give it a 5 star review. It has 60000+ installs but only 100 reviews after over 5 years! Features SEO friendly, lets you specify title, description, upload date to provide search engines with the schema.org data they like to have for better indexing. WYSIWYG support. No more messing around with shortcodes and previewing. New improved dialog for embedding videos. Magically makes those url embedded videos responsive. No ‘lock in’ if do not use shortcodes and use providers WordPress already supports. Supports almost every video host that supports iframe embed codes. Embeds via pasting the URL in its own line just like WordPress! Optionally use very powerful Shortcodes instead. Clean shortcode syntax [arve url="https://youtu.be/yUCFRL43Zm4" align="left" parameters="start=30" ... /], no unnecessary shortcode wrapping. One single button for all providers. Responsive embeds with CSS, much better then with JavaScript. Tries to be as unobtrusive as possible, sets ‘hide brand’ variables if supported, disabled related videos at the end … to help keep people on your site rather then going to YouTube or keep watching videos.

The development and support of this plugins has become a almost full time job for me so I hope you understand that I can not make all features gratis and that you purchase it to get extra features and support the development. Pro Addon Features Disable links in embeds Clicking on a title in a embed will not open a new popup/tab/window. Prevents video hosts to lead your visitors away from your site! Note that right click on links still works and this also breaks sharing functionality and is not possible when the provider requires flash. Lazyload mode Make your site load faster by loading only a image instead of the entire video player on page-load. Lazyload -> Lightbox Shows the Video in a Lightbox after clicking a preview image Link -> Lightbox Use simple links as triggers for lightboxed videos Automatic or custom thumbnail images Automatic or custom titles on top of your thumbnails ‘Expand on click’ feature 3 hover styles and 2 play icon styles to choose from Responsive thumbnails using cutting edge HTML5 technology Feel good about yourself for supporting my 5+ years work on this plugin. Tons of hours, weekends … always worked on improving it. Show the latest video of a YouTube channel by using the channel URL (updated/cached hourly) ARVE AMP Addon Requires the gratis plugins ARVE and AMP Makes ARVE ready for Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) It will display videos embedded with ARVE on AMP pages correctly No options, just works It creates <amp-brightcove>, <amp-youtube>, <amp-vimeo>, <amp-dailymotion> elements For all other video hosts supported by ARVE <amp-iframe> element is used HTML5 video embeds are also supported with <amp-video> Check out the ARVE AMP Addon Thanks Of course all the customers who bought a addon.
