 * Hello, I’m using another plugin to embed videos on my blog and it requires me
   to just use this pattern [youtube]video-ID[/youtube]
    Is there any possibility
   to automatic change that string with your plugin handling?
 * Can I make a search & replace in the database for `[youtube]` and replace with`[
   embedyt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=` and same for the closure, replace `[/
   youtube]` with `[/embedyt]`?

 * Hi davidebabylonia,
 * Your proposed approach should work assuming it’s constructed as described. Note
   that if you’re not doing any special formatting with your embeds (e.g. not adding
   page/line alignment HTML and/or embedding multiple videos on the same line), 
   you do not have to use the [embedyt] code.
 * That is, if you are just doing basic embedding, then a YouTube link on its own
   line will do; i.e., Method 1 shown here: [https://s.w.org/plugins/youtube-embed-plus/screenshot-1.jpg?r=1041649](https://s.w.org/plugins/youtube-embed-plus/screenshot-1.jpg?r=1041649)
 * The global settings that plugin offers will apply to either case.
 * Best of luck!
