Apparently the hosting provider does not allow external calls to be made via SOAP\CURL\REST on their shared plans… is that a common thing?
That’s kind of the first time I see this thing happening

Hm, that’s interesting.
I tried with curl and get_headers and the request timeouts.
I’ll try to reach the hosting provider and ask what’s going on

Thanks for the support

Well that’s quite unorthodox but it works! I didn’t think about it!
I was a bit confused about the parse_str line cause it didn’t work at first, so I did this:

$string = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXXXX";
$url = parse_url( $string );
$query_args = $url['query']; // returns v=XXXXX
parse_str( $query_args ); // generates $v with XXXXX value
$new_string = "https://www.youtube.com/embed/" . $v . "?feature=oembed&autoplay=1";

Thank you very much sir!!

Wow, this is disappointing! ??
Maybe I’m just better off figuring out some workaround, I don’t really have that much time to spend on such a simple function…
Well, thank you for your time!

PS: I’m still curious tho, I guess you forgot to link the article you mentioned?

works like a charm!
Thank you again!

Thanks for your quick response!
Can i ask if there’s an ETA? As said, im working on a client project and i have an early deadline.
I’m totally in love with your plugin, and i dont want to look for another one cause of this issue ??
Keep on the good work!

I needed (already done) to modify media.php because i need to use gallery in a particular way. Just nevermind that.

Right now, i have just one big problem.
I’ve adjusted the css to use different width values of the body\container according to the number of post (i never found a way to work with “fluid” width in horizontal layouts). I wanted to use a little ajax (i found a plugin as well) to display the rest of the post inline, shifting the rest on the right.
And here comes the issue: when the inline content shows up there’s no room in the container (which has fixed width, as explained above) to display it correctly, so it’s just splitting on another row.
Any suggestion?

I hope i was clear enough.
