 * Sorry, there was a YouTube API error: The provided API key has an IP address 
   restriction. The originating IP address of the call (2a02:4780:3:1::16) violates
   this restriction. Please make sure you performed the steps in this video to create
   and save a proper server API key.

 * Hi,
 * We don’t see the problem; in fact, the single video and gallery work smoothly.
   Should we keep this thread open?
