Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about SDAweb Channels for YouTube
Visit the Google Cloud Console, create a project, enable the YouTube Data API v3, and create an API key. Step-by-step instructions are included on the plugin's Settings page.
Yes. Google provides 10,000 free quota units per day. A typical site with 10 channels uses 300–500 units per day. Visitor page views use zero quota.
By default every 6 hours. You can change this to anywhere from 1 to 24 hours in Settings. Live stream status is checked every 5 minutes automatically.
The plugin checks for live and upcoming broadcasts every 5 minutes using the YouTube API and RSS feeds. Currently live streams show a red LIVE badge with viewer count. Upcoming streams show a blue UPCOMING badge with a countdown to the scheduled start time. Streams are automatically sorted by proximity to the current time, so the most imminent broadcasts always appear first regardless of when they were originally scheduled.
No. Live and upcoming streams are automatically excluded from [sdawchfo_channel], [sdawchfo_channels], and [sdawchfo_feed]. Use [sdawchfo_live] to display them separately, or add live_only="true" to any shortcode to show only live content.
Drag channels into the desired order on the Channels page. This order is used for tabs and sections site-wide. To set a different order on a specific page, list channel IDs in the shortcode: [sdawchfo_channels layout="tabs" ids="UCabc,UCxyz"].
Yes. Set count to up to 100 in the shortcode or Shortcode Builder. The plugin paginates through the YouTube API automatically.
Yes. Use the Import/Export section on the Settings page to download a JSON file with your channels and settings, then upload it on another site. Videos are not included — they are re-fetched automatically.
Yes. The plugin uses WordPress transients for its own internal cache, which is compatible with object caching plugins and page caching plugins.
The plugin offers four player modes, selectable in the Shortcode Builder or via the player attribute: Auto (default) — Adapts to screen size: opens a lightbox on desktop and tablet, plays inline on mobile phones. Best for sites with mixed audiences. Lightbox — Always opens a fullscreen overlay with prev/next navigation. Best for desktop-heavy audiences. Inline — Always plays directly inside the video card with an expand-to-lightbox button. Best for mobile-heavy audiences. Link — Opens the video on YouTube in a new tab. No on-site playback.
