It provides the basic features of YouTube, and will have you embedding in seconds after installing it. If you want to explore a more advanced plugin, we suggest looking at another one like: [Advanced YouTube Embed]( http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/embedplus-for-wordpress/) by [EmbedPlus](http://www.embedplus.com). To start using this plugin, simply paste a YouTube link on its own line. You can also make default settings for all your YouTube videos under the YouTube admin menu. You can make additional YouTube embed customizations by adding more to the link as shown below: * width - Sets the width of your player. If omitted, the default width will be the width of your theme's content. Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quwebVjAEJA&width=500&height=350 * height - Sets the height of your player. If omitted, this will be calculated for you automatically. Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quwebVjAEJA&width=500&height=350 * autoplay - Set this to 1 to autoplay the video (or 0 to play the video once). Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quwebVjAEJA&autoplay=1 * cc_load_policy - Set this to 1 to turn on closed captioning (or 0 to leave them off).
