   Is there a way to use multiple instances of this? Or is there another plugin with that functionality?

   This question was asked above but I wasn't clear on the answer. thanks for this.

   The removing of the YouTube URL is quite dumb. It should be a reg-ex, but I got lazy. If anything is slightly different with the URL, even case wise, it won’t work right.

   thanks. this is a nice plugin. do you know if you will be adding any extras. will the plugin be developed. a future which would automatically update you tube videos would be useful. thanks

   [...] YouTube Widget: Allows your users to show their latest YouTube videos on their sidebar. Great for all that travel footage! [...]

   HI, thanks for the plugin, I have a problem with it as it show me this error:

   Warning: array_slice() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given

   were all the errors in the php have this:

   $items = array_slice($feed->items, 0, $maxitems);
   foreach ($items as $item)

   any help?

   Running WP 2.6.5

    @Mark, what? array_slice and $feed are never used in this plugin.

    I saw this question before but didn't see an answer. Is there any way to get this widget to go up on a sidebar more than once?

    Great widget!

    It seems your plugin has just stopped working on every site I had it on. Once example, http://www.vmsphotography.com when you goto the pages, there is suppose to be a youtube video that is in the top left corner.

    It gives me the following error:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: str_ireplace() in /var/www/vhost/mas-memory.com/home/html/somos/wp-content/plugins/youtube.php on line 111

    How can I fix this?

    Thanks

    I know this isn't a great fix, but for multiple instances of this plugin, I just copied the plugin file, went through the whole code and replaced every "youtube" into "youtube2" in all the code and everything. I then uploaded the copy in to the plugins folder and activated my new "Youtube2" plugin. Not a great fix, but I only needed two instances of it anyway.

    Nish: try Widget Logic for your condition request. It'll add a widget logic field on the bottom of all plugins. You just need to know the page/post id # and then type in 'is_page(id_number_here)' without the quotes. You can find the plugin here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/

    Hi James,

    Just downloaded and uploaded this Plugin.
    It's activated in the PLugins section.
    Under the Widgets section it appears but it wont let me 'add' it to the sidebar as the 'Save' button disappears and therefore wont allow me to save or activate it.
    I've tried doing it a few times but cant get it to work.

    I have Wordpress version 2.7.1 on the site that I have currently installed this plugin.

    What should I try??

    Hi James,
    I downloaded your You Tube plugin, but Í've got problems using it. I'm using the fusion theme. At the widgets page the YouTube widget is shown. If I click on 'add', the 'current widgets' disappear, and the "save chacges button" as well. Do you have any idea how to solve this problem?

    Thanx in advance, Barbara

    Hi,

    Am trying to load your youtube widget to the site. Will it work with WP 2.7.1? If not, is there another youtube widget you could recommend.

    Thanks
