It works very well for my purposes (mainly lazyload and lightbox functionality). Recently I had a support issue with the new version which required some intervention – it was a conflict with my theme. Nico, the developer, went above and beyond to get a fix promptly sorted out for me. Thank you Nico. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The best there is – I have tried many… Have downloaded and paid for at least 4 other video players that use lightbox. Each one has major flaws. This products works perfectly. If you use the OnSite Editor, then just copy the short code and it works great. [arve url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7g8-GxLTSc” /] For speed, the product uses the thumbnails from the server. So many of the other products do NOT do this and it slows the page rendering. This product should appear first on the WordPress search. Spent 3 days of my life wasted on other products, only to delete each one. [review by jodani][16] ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Finally something that works So I have a responsive theme but on pages with you tube videos it wasn’t making the you tube videos fit in the mobile screen. I have spent the last hour trying many plugins and researching on google and finally I installed this. And I didn’t have to update any settings or anything just refreshed a post with videos and all the sudden it is beautiful and responsive on my mobile phone!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!

Forward: Embed Image Links replaces plain image URLs with the actual image they point to. Paste a direct image URL into a post, page, bbPress topic, reply, forum description, or BuddyPress activity update, and the plugin displays it as an embedded image on the front end. The plugin also includes a simple width setting so large images can be scaled to fit the content area. Key features Converts direct image URLs into image embeds automatically. Works in posts, pages, bbPress content, and BuddyPress activity feeds. Supports common image formats including JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, WebP, and SVG. Lets you set a maximum image width as a percentage of the content area. Translation-ready and bundled with common language files. Good for Community sites where members paste image links in forums or activity feeds. Editorial workflows that need quick image previews from direct URLs. Sites that want lightweight image embedding without extra shortcodes. Accessibility WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliance is a release requirement for the interface and markup generated by Forward: Embed Image Links. Settings controls are tested for accessible names, keyboard operation, visible focus, contrast, reflow, and target size. Each generated image remains an accessible link with a descriptive action instead of removing the original URL’s purpose for non-visual users. Because a direct image URL does not contain a description of the image, authors remain responsible for providing an adjacent text equivalent when the image is informative. Developers can customize the link’s accessible name with the embed_image_links_accessible_label filter. The active theme and surrounding content can also affect full-page WCAG conformance. Compatibility Forward: Embed Image Links works with standard WordPress posts and pages, bbPress topics, replies, and forum descriptions, and BuddyPress activity updates and activity comments. It embeds direct image file URLs when the content is displayed, while keeping the saved content as the original URL. Data and privacy Forward: Embed Image Links does not send data to an external API and does not store personal data. The plugin changes front-end display only. It keeps the original URL in the post content and outputs it as an image when the page is viewed. Visitors’ browsers will request the image from the original remote host, so that host may receive normal request details such as IP address and user agent.
