Replaces plain YouTube links in a CKEditor field with Paul Irish's much faster YouTube embed script.

Lite YouTube Embed Module for the Processwire CMS

Adapted from Ryan Cramer's TextformatterVideoEmbed, this module replaces plain YouTube links pasted in a CKEditor field with Paul Irish's blazing fast Lite YouTube Embed script:

So for example pasting the following links…

https://youtu.be/z_DwA8We7pI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UAFdL8N91U
https://www.youtube.com/?v=ucmU2nbCVI8

…will convert them to:

<lite-youtube videoid='z_DwA8We7pI'></lite-youtube>
<lite-youtube videoid='5UAFdL8N91U'></lite-youtube>
<lite-youtube videoid='ucmU2nbCVI8'></lite-youtube>

Note: you need to include the lite-youtube-embed stylesheet and script yourself as this module will not do it automatically for you.

Install and use modules at your own risk. Always have a site and database backup before installing new modules.

“The end client and designer love the ease at which they can update the website. Training beyond how to log in wasn’t even necessary since ProcessWire’s default interface is straightforward.” —Jonathan Lahijani
