Video Sharing Settings

Video API Libraries

At Video API Libraries you can set API loading for video providers you use – YouTube and/or Vimeo. With these setting you optimize the work of the app and of the entire site, because you exclude loading of features you will not use.

Disable YouTube API loading – switch to Yes if your site don’t use YouTube iframe API.

If you have installed another plugin that uses YouTube API you should stay that option turned off. That will prevent loading the API again, which may cause troubles.

For example if you have galleries with YouTube videos on your website, that means you already use YouTube API and you have to stay that option to No.

Disable Vimeo API loading – switch to Yes if your site don’t use Vimeo iframe API.

If you have installed another plugin that uses VimeoAPI you should stay that option turned off. That will prevent loading the API again, which may cause troubles.
