Lightweight YouTube Channel Widget

Àpèjúwe

Use this plugin when you want to display a list of recent YouTube videos from a
channel or playlist in your siteÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s sidebar.

This plugin is a fork of Aleksandar UroševićÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s YouTube
Channel. This plugin is much
more lightweight and does only have a subset of YouTube ChannelÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s features.

The videos are each only presented with a thumbnail, and optionally also its
title and/or description. Clicking a thumbnail takes the user to the videoÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s
page on YouTube. This results in a much smaller codebase and no additional
front-end dependencies. The original plugin, YouTube Channel by Aleksandar
Urošević, on the other hand depends on several JavaScript libraries
(jQuery, FitVids.JS and
Magnific Popup), which
potentially makes the whole WordPress site both slower to load and use.

Features
