How strange! WordPress.org has delisted this plugin, even though it can be found with the direct link.

I have moved the zip to dropbox and fixed the link in the post. Enjoy!

Hmmm. I’ll have to investigate. Thank you for your interest. I’ll get back to you if/when I fix it.

Is this plugin still available? Tried from both here and the WordPress location but 404′d on both. Would be AWESOME to have this, thanks

Is there a way for it to play automatically without pressing the play button?

Is there a limit on the number of times you can use this in a post. More that 6 in a post does not seem to work.

Thanks, this worked. I didn’t understand how to do it from the plugin description. You might want to look at re-wording the instructions for thick headed blog new comers like me. Once I figured it out, this is a GREAT and very simple plugin to use.

Thanks for your quick response

No, you don’t put the entire embed code between the parentheses. You only need the unique alphanumeric string that identifies the video. When you are looking at the video on YouTube, look at the url in your browser and see the value after the v= in the url. That’s what you put between the parentheses.

I cannot get the plug in to work. I can only get the full embedded video with the audio from YouTube. I have tried using the embed code, the URL, editing the embed code to remove references to the video and screen size and other experiments. I have entered all attempt in html vs visual.
Your explanation says to add the “code” to ytaudio(“code here”). Is it something other than the embed code? Do I need to edit the embed code? Is the code supposed to be put between parenthesis or something else?
Finally, the “ytaudio” always appears as text followed by the embedded video. The parenthesis also are visible. Putting a around the text hides it but the video portion of YouTube is still there.

You want just the code that’s after the v= in the url.

Like this: ytaudio(LVQnFzZUITM)

Hey there,

I keep trying your code ytaudio(xyz) and replacing “xyz” with either the direct URL or the embed code for the youtube video, but the former just keeps the link and the latter embeds the video with ytaudio(video) surrounding it. What am I doing wrong?

Example code:

ytaudio(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVQnFzZUITM)

ytaudio()
