YouTube API key is required here, not AlphaVantage( mixed My YouTube Channel with a Stock Ticker I’m working on this days). * For YouTube videos without API key, check out my other plugin Easy YouTube Gallery [https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-youtube-gallery/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-youtube-gallery/) * Thread Starter [trailboss63](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trailboss63/) * (@trailboss63) * [1 year, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/open-source-7/#post-18378944) * will this work if i use a channels rss feed from youtube? there are rss feeds but alot of people do not know. im glad to see your still updating this software. Without doing anything to the code will a rss feed work and auto update new videos? will a rss add a new video and the old video still remain, if using a rss feed? can you add lazy load so it will run faster? sorry to ask all these questions. i think these are things i would like it do do. * thanks - This reply was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by [trailboss63](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trailboss63/). - This reply was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by [trailboss63](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trailboss63/). * Plugin Author [Aleksandar Urošević](https://wordpress.org/support/users/urkekg/) * (@urkekg) * [1 year, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/open-source-7/#post-18379050) * Unfortunately no. YouTube RSS feed provides only last 15 uploaded videos from the channel or playlist. I assume that limitation is a reason why no one ever asked for a RSS version. * If you find that limitation suits your needs, feel free to fork My YouTube Channel plugin and make version for crunching RSS feed instead of API.
