It could be your theme has some function to affect YouTube links and this is interfering. So try previewing using a default theme such as TwentyTen (under Appearance > Themes, click Live Preview and find a page with an example on). * Joel * Thread Starter [skif.imba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/skifimba/) * (@skifimba) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oembeded-problem/#post-4345201) * Yes, already tried that too. * [Joel Williams](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joelwills/) * (@joelwills) * Automattic Happiness Engineer * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oembeded-problem/#post-4345202) * So it doesn’t work on a default theme with no plugins active and as plain text? * Have you tried the URL link in the browser address bar rather than the Share link, or vice versa? * Thread Starter [skif.imba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/skifimba/) * (@skifimba) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oembeded-problem/#post-4345338) * Yes i tried everything, even replacing the old database and files when oembeded worked. But i think it’s because some script in wordpress, some script is making the mess. Vimeo is working but Youtube isnt. This is so important to me, if somebody has sloved this problem please help me. * [WPyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/) * (@wpyogi) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oembeded-problem/#post-4345343) * Please post a link to your site (make its accessible) with ALL plugins deactivated and an unmodified default theme active. * Thread Starter [skif.imba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/skifimba/) * (@skifimba) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oembeded-problem/#post-4345344) * There you go.

But don’t touch the /wp-content folder or wp- config.php. * This just makes sure you have all the latest files. * If you’re worried, take a backup first. * Something is interfering as a clean install without custom themes and plugins it works perfectly, so we need to find the cause. The only way is to remove things and see if it works and then add them back one by one until it no longer works. * Thread Starter [skif.imba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/skifimba/) * (@skifimba) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oembeded-problem/#post-4345377) * Replaced wp-includes and wp-admin and still doesen’t work. Can it be some file in wp-content? * [Joel Williams](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joelwills/) * (@joelwills) * Automattic Happiness Engineer * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oembeded-problem/#post-4345378) * Yes it could be, that’s why I wanted a clean install of WordPress. * Can you remove all themes and plugins without losing anything? Or take backups or wp-contnt and then delete the themes and plugins so you’re left with a clean WordPress install with a single default WordPress theme and no other themes or plugins. * Thread Starter [skif.imba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/skifimba/) * (@skifimba) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/oembeded-problem/#post-4345398) * I installed wordpress from beggining, with new database and everything.
