Did you add the videos as posts of type external-video? If so, I have just committed a patch that will retain those posts as long as you don’t give them a video_id metadata field. See https://github.com/silviapfeiffer/external-videos/commit/0a0f7a781752547fd8134846e1da795e90df11d4 .

You create a new post or page and add just this piece of code:

[external-videos]

Is the duplicate post still happening with the latest version? Does it happen with and without your changes?

I’ll add the two other feature requests to my list.

Yeah, sorry, I’ve had my focus on other work.

I checked the auto-embed stuff of WordPress and there is actually no way to make a YouTube URL autoplay with the default embed way.

Looks like this guy wants that fork, too: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/id-video-posts-to-be-normal-posts .

Hi Alex,

if you want a reduced plugin, I would indeed suggest creating a fork and giving it a different name. Very happy for that – just go ahead.

But I would like to merge some of the other features that you made, if that’s ok.

Cheers,
Silvia.

Ah ok. No worries then.

I can see that they work now, e.g. https://uprighthealth.com/external-videos/i-beat-the-concussion/

VimeoAPIException was renamed to spEvVimeoAPIException in v0.19

You mean such as using https://php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-real-escape-string.php ?

I’m sanitizing the input fields now: https://github.com/silviapfeiffer/external-videos/commit/41ed903faea82ae5558780b0fbf784496135fe9e .

But I’m not making these SQL queries – WordPress does that for the plugin.

Marking this closed. Reopen if you have more information.

You’re free to check the source code for this plugin though, which is at https://github.com/silviapfeiffer/external-videos .

No, this is a plugin written for WordPress – you’d have to write a new plugin for squarespace, sorry.

I just updated the plugin for WP 3.8. Can you test it again? I just bulk updated the author and it worked well.

Not right now…
