same problem

Hi greennell and vanlianhup

What are your channels?

Hi hommealone

When you create a Server API key not restricted to an ip, Google will not show any alert. But when you create a Browser API key without a referrer, Google will show you an icon with this alert: “This key has no referrer restrictions, so other applications might be able to use this key and consume quota. Add restrictions before using this key in production.”

If you use a Server API key in an application on your server, no one can access or view this API key so limiting the IP is not necessary, and therefore Google shows no warning in this case. Youtube Channel Gallery only uses the API key on the server, so it is not necessary to restrict it to a particular IP.

Anyway, if you want to restrict it by ip, you have to ask the question about the IP of your web to your web hosting provider.

Hi

can you play a video from a thumbnail with that plugin or only the video of the player?

Apple Safari HTML5 Audio and Video Guide:

“In Safari on iOS (for all devices, including iPad), where the user may be on a cellular network and be charged per data unit, preload and autoplay are disabled. No data is loaded until the user initiates it. This means the JavaScript play() and load() methods are also inactive until the user initiates playback, unless the play() or load() method is triggered by user action. In other words, a user-initiated Play button works, but an onLoad=”play()” event does not.”

Apple restrictions.

Hi hommealone

I was wrong because there is no problem with YouTube API. My plugin calls YouTube API on the server using php, so it never exposes the api key and therefore, there is no need of referrer. In other plugins, it is called with javascript and a referrer is needed in order to protect the api key because it can be seen. Anyway, if you want to protect the API key you must use a server key. You can see in the video below how to use it.

Hi

This is a call example that makes the plugin from the server where it is installed:

https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=snippet&channelId=UCBR8-60-B28hp2BmDPdntcQ&maxResults=8&order=date&type=video&key=AIzaSyAdE_-upJdcp91-oedBmU0hIX3SsLFdKjw

If the key is configured with a referrer and the referrer is incorrectly configured or the server from which the call is made to youtube api does not match the configured in the referrer, youtube api returns an error message. If the api is not correct it will return an error message. The call is made from client_server/wp-content/plugins/youtube-channel-gallery/youtube-channel-gallery.php.

Hi ahotik

You do not have to add poselab.com. This is a problem that many users have with the API key of Google. There is the same problem in other plugins that use the Google api key. Some advices:

• Do you use a CDN? delete the referer or add the ip of the cdn
• Eliminates the referer
• Eliminates the API key and creates a new one
• Test with a different Google account

Hi hommealone

That is a question that we should ask to Google. There are many people complaining about the same thing but the plugin is not responsible for how the API key works.

Hi Barturt

You have to check your theme code because it is not loading footer scripts of the plugin

Hi dpbraun
If you could send me your theme by email, I would like to check it in order to find the problem. Thanks in advance.

Hi dpbraun
My email is [email protected] but I do not need your API Key. Could you try to assign another post to that section in order to give it more than only one? I do not see any difference between this section or Leadership section. Are those index of posts created by a plugin or a Theme? What plugin or theme?

Hi Barturt

Send me a url

Hi dpbraun

Send me a url and shortcode or widget data
