How to disable related videos on YouTube videos in sliders

[joejacobson]

How can I have no related videos come up when I embed a video in a slider?

This should do the trick.

Thanks, I’ll give this a try.

I just tried this plugin, but apparently, it doesn’t work now with youtube. See below comments from plugin page:

3.5 isn’t the issue… the plugin simply doesn’t work, because Youtube changed their system.

You need to replace the ampersands with question marks and remove “?feature=oembed” entirely. I’m not sure if there’s a downside to doing this… all I know is that it works.

Here’s the bad code on line 33:
return str_replace(‘&feature=oembed’, ‘&feature=oembed&rel=0’, $data);

And here’s what it should be:
return str_replace(‘?feature=oembed’, ‘?rel=0’, $data);

However, if you’re like me and use other embeds, like Flickr, you’ll want to make this adjustment for Youtube embeds only. So here’s what I changed line 33 to:
$data = preg_replace(‘/(youtube.com.*)(?feature=oembed)(.*)/’, ‘$1?rel=0$3’, $data);
return $data;

Keep in mind that none of this has anything to do with the theme. We’re just talking about filtering how WordPress inserts YouTube videos. Give the instructions a try. Seems pretty straight forward.

Thanks for tweeting the author.

It looks like the plugin has been updated as I just installed and it worked without any modifications. Thanks.
