For Example, * > [Youtube_Channel_Gallery user=”googledevelopers” key=”your_Google_API_key” > maxitems=”16″ thumb_columns_tablets=”4″ title=”1″] * I changed like this; * > [Youtube_Channel_Gallery channel=”UCOmWu6SdqG0wVcc-4Fcm5ug” key=”your_Google_API_key” > maxitems=”16″ thumb_columns_tablets=”4″ title=”1″] * **#My Channel ID is UCOmWu6SdqG0wVcc-4Fcm5ug, and youtube link is ([https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOmWu6SdqG0wVcc-4Fcm5ug](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOmWu6SdqG0wVcc-4Fcm5ug)).** * **But, the plugin loads data from Channel ID – UCBR8-60-B28hp2BmDPdntcQ, youtube link ([https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBR8-60-B28hp2BmDPdntcQ](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBR8-60-B28hp2BmDPdntcQ))** * Thanks…. * [webeminence](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webeminence/) * (@webeminence) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/#post-7237609) * I’m having the same problem. Using shortcode with “channel=” but it goes to channel UCBR8-60-B28hp2BmDPdntcQ by default regardless of what Channel ID I enter in the shortcode. * Even if I put channel=”xxx” in the shortcode, it still shows videos for channel UCBR8-60-B28hp2BmDPdntcQ * [npc016](https://wordpress.org/support/users/npc016/) * (@npc016) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/#post-7237613) * Having the exact same problem when using channelid in the shortcode. Using the user id works great but not all channels have a user name publicly available. * It works fine if I use the widget but using channel id in shortcode results in the feed becoming that of a channel with “Snoopadog” videos. Might be something in the php as the widget and shortcode seems to use different code but not proficient enough in php to figure that out… * [pamelakd](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pamelakd/) * (@pamelakd) * [9 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/#post-7237625) * Exactly the same problem here. Every time I use the user ID I just get an error, and if I use the channel I get Snoopavision. * [webeminence](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webeminence/) * (@webeminence) * [9 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/#post-7237626) * Yeah, should be an easy fix.

It shows the Snoopalicious channel even though I have my channel ID in the short code. Maybe you have an older version of the plugin where this wasn’t an issue? * Is this working for anyone else? * [theappalachians](https://wordpress.org/support/users/theappalachians/) * (@theappalachians) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/#post-7237631) * Yes, both of the code blocks that [@noman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/noman/) Al Sayed provided worked for my site. Thank you! * [Noman Al Sayed](https://wordpress.org/support/users/noman393/) * (@noman393) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/#post-7237632) * Hi [@webeminence](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webeminence/) If you need any help, Please contact through [noman393@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/noman393@gmail.com?output_format=md). I will take a look. I am using the latest version of this plugin and WordPress.. * [webeminence](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webeminence/) * (@webeminence) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/#post-7237633) * OK, I was going to ask which version. I’m using 2.4 version of plugin too. I was able to get it to work changing the channel id in “user=…” I may have had the user ID in there from previous testing. Thanks for your help. I assume it’s the “identify_by=”channelid” that did the trick. * [ischwartzman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ischwartzman/) * (@ischwartzman) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/#post-7237641) * I have my Google API and my channel ID correct. Still having issues. Any suggestions? [@norman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norman/)? * [Here is my url.](http://www.drigorschwartzman.com/follow-dr-schwartzmans-video-health-guide) * Thanks in advance. * [webeminence](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webeminence/) * (@webeminence) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-channel/#post-7237642) * [@ischwartzman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ischwartzman/) * Can you post the shortcode you’re using? You’re not having the Snoopavision problem we were having. Yours isn’t connecting to a user/channel at all.
