Import YouTube videos as WP Posts est un plugin tout simple qui permet de chercher des vidéos Youtube depuis l'administration de WordPress et de les ajouter à son site rapidement.

Quelques utilisations :

• alimenter un site en quelques minutes avec du vrai contenu venant de Youtube
• afficher un contenu choisi sur son site
• faire le lien entre une playlist ou une chaîne Youtube

Comment ça marche ?

1. Tapez une requête : mots-clé, ID de playlist, ID de chaîne
2. Réglez quelques paramètres : taxonomie à remplir, post type à remplir, nombre de vidéos à afficher, etc...
3. Il est possible de customiser votre contenu ajouté avec un petit système de template (%title%, %user%, etc.)
4. Une fois votre recherche effectuée, choisissez des vidéos, ajoutez-les à votre site ou rejetez celle qui ne vous plaisent pas.

Ça fonctionne avec tous les thèmes : le plugin ajoute les vidéos choisies à un type de ressources existant (ex: Articles).

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

1. Upload /youtube-to-posts/ folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
3. Set up your Google API key in the Settings page
4. Search for Youtube content and add it to your Wordpress from the 'Import YouTube videos as WP Posts' menu

To use this plugin, you'll need to create a Google Youtube API key. Dealing with Google Developers Console can be a bit confusing, you need to : create a project, make the API data you need active and generate a public API key. Here's how to do that:

1. Login to Google using your Google account.
2. Go to the Developers Console > Projects Click on "Create a project" (you'll need to give it a title and an ID)
3. When your project his created, click on it on the project list
4. Go to the section API and authentication > API, and search for YouTube Data API v3, and click on the button on the right to make this API active.
5. Go to the Credentials section > Access to the public API anc click on the button "Make a key" > Server key
6. On the next box, you'll need to tell on which domains you allow the use of your app (e.g. 127.0.0.1, www.mydomain.com, etc).
7. Now it should have generated a API Key (e.g. AIzaFyD0aPCQjLFRbLnh4RKbVBlBgVCVSwjbFAg), copy-paste it on the box above.
8. It's done, congrats :)

It's because you didn't fill the API key field (in the settings page) with your Google API key.

This is mostly because you made a mistake typing / copying your API key. Check the API key field in the Settings page.
