    Hello,
    I recently updated to PHP 7.0 following which the embed videos/posts stopped working. It happens only for desktop version, the mobile AMP theme works fine. In any post, some embeds work and other don’t. For instance, in this post,

    https://rajksite.com/roma-a-cinematic-marvel-by-alfonso-cuaron/

    the first Youtube video and a Twitter embed works fine but for the last Youtube video, I just see the URL, no embed. I first thought it was a theme problem but it is happening for all themes, including Twenty Ninenteen.

    Thanks
    Rajendra

    I see the url in your page as:
    https://youtu.be/6BS27ngZtxg

    …which is Google’s way of doing a URL shortener (which is crazy). Problem is, it redirects to a different url, so this might be the issue (buggy). I’ve seen this not work 100% in WordPress.

    But try this one instead:

    Thanks Andre.

    I tried the proper URL and that also does not seem to work. However, if I put the iframe code for the video, it works fine. Is there any way I can replace all Youtube URLs with iframe codes in one go?

    Hi Rajendra,

    Sorry for the late response, as I am just starting my day here.

    Replacing all youtube URLs with the iframe code, I’m not quite sure unless there is a plugin for that. I know there are a lot of plugins for youtube and other video services, so there might be one, or one to start using for new videos you add.

    Best Regards,
    Andre
