Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Captain Feed for YouTube

No. Elementor is completely optional. Captain Feed for YouTube works with any modern WordPress theme using shortcodes. Elementor support is included for users who prefer a drag-and-drop editing experience.

Go to the Documentation section inside the plugin admin for a step-by-step setup guide. A YouTube API key can be created through Google Cloud Console.

Yes. Captain Feed for YouTube supports a dedicated YouTube Shorts feed type for displaying short-form vertical videos in a responsive 9:16 grid layout.

Yes. Enter the Playlist ID when creating a Playlist feed. The plugin will fetch and display videos from the selected public playlist.

Yes. Enter your YouTube Channel ID or @handle when creating a Channel feed. The plugin supports both formats.

Yes. Create a separate feed for each channel, playlist, search query, or individual video collection, then place the generated shortcodes anywhere on your website.

Yes. Use the Individual Video feed type to select and display specific YouTube videos using their video URLs or IDs.

Yes. The Embed Video feed type lets you paste one YouTube video URL and embed it directly - it doesn't need a YouTube API key at all, since it uses YouTube's public oEmbed endpoint for the video title and channel name.

Yes, optionally. On WordPress 6.9 or newer, the plugin can register its feed management as WordPress Abilities. With an MCP bridge plugin installed (such as Easy MCP AI or the official WordPress MCP Adapter), AI assistants can then list, create, update, duplicate, delete, and diagnose your feeds using natural language. This is fully optional and each ability can be switched off individually from the plugin's MCP page.

Yes. The YouTube Search feed lets you display videos based on a search query.
