Lite YouTube Embed

SychO

Lite YouTube Embed

A Flarum extension.

Replaces iframe YouTube embeds from fof/formatting with a lightweight embed implementation using lite-youtube(https://github.com/justinribeiro/lite-youtube).

The MediaEmbed option in fof/formatting must be enabled for this extension to work.

Installation

Install with composer:

composer require sycho/flarum-lite-youtube:"*"

Updating

composer update sycho/flarum-lite-youtube:"*"
php flarum migrate
php flarum cache:clear

Support

This extension is under minimal maintenance.

It was developed for a client and released as open-source for the benefit of the community.
I might publish simple bugfixes or compatibility updates for free.

SychO a lightweight embed i

Could you explain that please?
Does it help to load the site faster? Or is there another benefit?

SychO it is a great plugin. but i miss timestamps. Since i use this plugin it is not longer working.

m4v3rick I linked to lite youtube (https://github.com/justinribeiro/lite-youtube) you can read up on it there. It's a fork of (https://github.com/paulirish/lite-youtube-embed) so you can also read up on it there.

TLDR, a more lightweight and faster youtube embed than the default.

The GitHub link is not accessible for us.
The link in this discussion to GitHub is wrong.
The correct one is: https://github.com/SychO9/flarum-lite-youtube

Please add the feature of timestamps! We like this Plugin but can't use it as it is

@SychO we'd like to link to a specific time also. Would be so nice to add this feature.

I'm testing Selective MediaEmbed, I saw this https://discuss.flarum.org/d/31404-selective-mediaembed/4 and it seems that fof/formatting is no longer mandatory, but I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong(?) Maybe it's the order of activation, but it doesn't seem to affect it 🤔

Darkle did you clear cache and try with a new post? I see this extension makes changes to the TextFormatter template added by MediaEmbed, and this will be cached in production.

If you see YouTube link, nothing works. If you see regular iframe, MediaEmbed works but this extension doesn't recognize it, it's probably a priority issue.

The loading order probably makes a difference because the LiteYouTubeTemplate class checks isset($config->MediaEmbed), which will not be true if Selective MediaEmbed loads after.

Ideally Selective MediaEmbed should be added as a second optional dependency of this extension to guarantee correct loading order.

Darkle

clarkwinkelmann That's right, it shows the regular iframe, and if I disable YouTube from Selective MediaEmbed, it shows the link directly.

It does not seem to affect the order priority from the admin panel. Even if I manually enable them one after the other.

Would you be able to tell me what I'd have to change CSS wise in order to change the size of the embed. I've managed to get the width lower but nothing lets me do the height. I saw there is a #shadow-root but I dont think I can alter that
I've got this so far which has only changed the width

lite-youtube {
max-width: 40% !important;
height: 20% !important;
max-height: 30% !important;
}

lite-youtube-fallback {
max-width: 40% !important;
height: 20% !important;
max-height: 30% !important;
}

any help would be appreciated, thanks

radiofranky where does s9e/flarum-ext-mediaembed come from? That's the problem, it's an extension that is not compatible with the current version of Flarum.

If you manually installed it, remove it with composer remove s9e/flarum-ext-mediaembed.

The extension referenced in this extension README is FriendsOfFlarum Formatting. You could probably also use Selective MediaEmbed instead, but I never tried.
