Today I would like to share with you about WordPress embed URL. Some of you may not know this feature. Since WordPress 2.9, we can add videos from YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo, etc. by just pasting the URL into the content editor, and WordPress will automatically convert them into a video player. No shortcode and no programming skill needed.
For example, for the YouTube video below, I paste the URL as follows:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3P-m2cBCJSkAnd it will look like this:
There are many supported video providers available — you can see them here. And it is not just for video — you can embed images or photos too, such as photos from Flickr or Photobucket.
And for those who are WordPress developers and would like to use this function, I created this Gist so you can embed your code from Gist and put it into your WordPress post content.
I only paste this code:
