I didnt try directly with the shortcode, but with a rest call to the youtube v3 api and that username does exist. (Its the exact way the plugin works: it makes a rest call to youtube api).

Here is a snapshot of the result:
https://ctrlv.in/605632

Notice that in the url, there is: user=UCfmGcNmcJLpglQOlogODbpw

hmm hum,
go in your youtube advanced settings,
you should see user id, and channel id. Try the one with the user id you see there.

ps: there is always a solution :). if it doesnt work, feel free to email at [email protected]
Will be glad to help you trough this.

Try just with this:
[Youtube_Channel_Gallery user=”UCfmGcNmcJLpglQOlogODbpw” key=”your_Google_API_key” maxitems=”16″ thumb_columns_tablets=”4″ thumb_order=”1″ player_order=”2″]

Make sure there is not a space after the user and that your api key is the good one.

Error type: “Bad Request”. Error message: “Bad Request” Domain: “usageLimits”. Reason: “keyExpired”. Location type: “”. Location: “”.

is releated to your key.

@elevensuns you’re welcome
Use:
[Youtube_Channel_Gallery user=”UCfmGcNmcJLpglQOlogODbpw” key=”your_Google_API_key” videowidth=”580″ ratio=”16×9″ theme=”light” color=”white” autoplay=”0″ rel=”0″ showinfo=”0″ maxitems=”4″ thumb_width=”183″ thumb_ratio=”16×9″ thumb_columns_ld=”3″ title=”0″ description=”0″ promotion=”0″ pagination_show=”1″ description_words_number=”0″ link=”1″]

@pgranclaud: You’re welcome.When using the shortcode, the user option is mandatory. so try user=”UC3qpwTl7DiQGKffIX_sHHqg” instread of identify_by

@l3xus: It’s cleary an issue with your google api key.
Update your pluging, then use the default youtube api key in your shortcode.
If not working, generate a new one key (choose browser instead of server) in your google console. Then, use this new key. Should work.

@pgranclaud:
– be sure to update the plugin to the lasted version (current version should be 2.2.2 check to be sure)
– In the plugin widget, select Uploaded by user -then Identify by: Channel Id and paste your channel ID: UC3qpwTl7DiQGKffIX_sHHqg. Try with the default api key. If it’s not working, generate a new one in your google console (see my first post for this)

You should get something like this: https://ctrlv.in/604893

I just tried and it works with the current version.

@elevensuns you’re welcome ??
Hum, weird that when you click on EnriqueIglesiasVEVO, your url doesnt change.
I have a new account and its working.

Here is another trick:
In the channel page, right click -> view page source and then, search for “user”
You should get something.

If still, you dont get it, give me your youtube channel link. I’ll find that ??

@kdiom: be sure that if you select user id, you put the user id and if
you choose playlist id, you did put the playlist id.

@toby04 :You’re welcome ?? Glad this helped.

@nilesh.nil17, Sure. I’ll be glad to help!
We could do a quick TeamViewer or skype meeting,
so you’ll see how it works. Send me a msg/call on skype: kjehiel

tikishag, For the user id, do the following steps:

Go in the youtube channel and click the channel name.

You’ll see something like https://www.youtube.com/user/XXX

That XXX is what you need.
For example:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVttQE6tS_agDSAU61Q65aA
In there, click on EnriqueIglesiasVEVO,
you’ll see https://www.youtube.com/user/EnriqueIglesiasVEVO
EnriqueIglesiasVEVO is what you need.
Hope it helps.

Youtube has changed their api moving from v2 to v3.
Be sure to put the new api key in the YCG widget. This key is required
to make request to the youtube api (that’s how the plugin works).
[] —- You can request the key in:
Go to: https://console.developers.google.com (you need a gmail account)
1- create a project
2- Enable api
3- API -> Youtube Data API -> enable api
4- The go in Credentials: in Public Api Access, create a new Browser key.
5- Then copy this key into your youtube channel widget in wordpress). –[]
