Youtube Privacy-Enhanced Mode embed coded

    Hi there,

    the plugin works really well but I have noticed that the type of embed code of my videos has changed.

    I embed all my youtube videos with the privacy-enhanced code for GDPR reasons, and if I look at the page source, that code (which work with the URL www. youtube-nocookie .com) is gone and it seems that the normal embed code is being used. If I disable the plugin, indeed I have now the normal code and the privacy code is gone.

    Did I do something wrong in the settings? Should I select No for Also act on normal YouTube links and iframes?

    Or is the plugin programmed to replaced the privacy code with the normal one?

    I know that Youtube does place some cookies once you play the video, but with the privacy embed code, these cookies should be less invasive (no personally-identifiable cookies).

    Many thanks,

    Mat

    No, LYTE uses youtube-nocookie as well and that works for your site as well;

    Hi,

    I don’t know why but the Firefox inspector shows a different code that the one you see (it’s probably me doing something wrong). It’s only when I click the grey EVENT button that I can find some trace of the nocookie URL.

    See screenshots below:

    If I only click “show source” in Chrome then there is no trace of the nocookie url and that’s what fooled me to begin with.

    But when editing the article, I can see that the nocookie code now so I guess it was a false alarm after all.

    Many thanks, again! Your patience and prompt support deserves five stars.

    the screenshot I made is done after clicking the play button, which is when LYTE swaps the dummy player (which does not use the youtube domain at all) for a player iframe which points to the nocookie domain ??

    Right, makes sense!

    Now I’m going to close 2019 with an even more silly problem.

    I’ve noticed that all my H2 titles that contain one dash (-) now have a double dash (- -).

    If I disable the plugin, the double dash reverts to a single dash.

    This seems to happen in the text too.

    see example here:

    Any idea? ??

    No idea tbh, I’ll test locally to see if I can reproduce to start with.

    I can reproduce, but only when using blocks (not the classic editor) and only if there are spaces around the dash. If LYTE is active on the page, the - becomes --, if LYTE is not active, - becomes – (a long dash). When in classic editor - always becomes – (a long dash) ..

    Now why this happens, that I don’t know yet ??

    I just checked and on my site, the - becomes -- also on articles that are not converted to blocks.

    I’ll have to look into that (created an issue on GitHub so I don’t forget), for now maybe replace – with – in your text(s), that will (likely) not be touched?

    It’s ok I’ll wait for now and see if you find a solution.
    Thanks!

    Same problem for me. All the dashes with a space after them are replaced with two dashes, even if the posts are written in the classical editor.
    I hope in a solution. Thanks.

    No short term solution as I don’t have the time to dive in, use – instead of – as workaround.

    I have the same issue with dashes ??

    I also have the exact same issue see

    well, as a workaround for those on Autoptimize, you could use this code snippet to turn -- into –;

    add_filter('autoptimize_html_after_minify','replace_doubledash');
function replace_doubledash($in) {
    return str_replace( '-- ', '– ', $in );
}

    Hi Frank, what would I do with the code?

    thanks
