filter hook for built-in oEmbed providers (e.g. youtube)
-
I am looking for a way to add the title of a youtube video ABOVE the embedded youtube code when using oEmbed functionality in wordpress.
I am also open to using the [embed] shortcode and add custom title attribute there.
Ive been tearing my hear out all day trying to get a working function filter for oembed that can read custom attributes or custom values from the returned xml/json.
Any ideas?
Im currently trying to access the $data object from the filter hook: oembed_dataparse:
// You can use this filter to add support for custom data types or to filter the result return apply_filters( 'oembed_dataparse', $return, $data, $url );But I am not having any success.

Just by posting my question, i was somehow able to figure this out.
Here’s an example.
$foo = new ExampleWrapper_Oembed; class ExampleWrapper_Oembed { /* Here's our filter function. */ function add_wrapper( $return, $data, $url ) { /* $data is an object created by the xml/json returned from the original oEmbed request. Some other youtube fields: http://www.youtube.com/oembed?url=http%3A//www.youtube.com/watch?v%3D-UUx10KOWIE&format=xml Each oembed provider will have different fields here, so check oembed.com for specifics: http://www.oembed.com/ */ /* So lets check for the youtube video title. */ if( strlen($data->title) > 0 ) return $titlebar = '<div class="title">' . $data->title . '</div>' . $return; // we found one, so create some html and prepend it to $result which is the resulting html output. return $return; } /* adding the filter function to the oembed_dataparse filter hook */ function ExampleWrapper_Oembed() { add_filter('oembed_dataparse', array(&$this,'add_wrapper'), 10, 3); } }Hi notroon,
since you tried something similar as I do, maybe you can help me out. Did your code actually work?
If so, I’d be glad if you could have a look at my problem here:

I managed to achive my task by using the
embed_oembed_html-filter – see http://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/416648.Thanks, anyway! 😀
Thanks saphod, I tried a bunch too, and only
embed_oembed_htmlworked.Thanks mate!
nootron, if you’re still there, can you help me with implementing the code you posted? I can’t get it to work– nothing gets added to the wrapper. Where am I supposed to add the code you added?
