  • It could have been good.

    The plugin was great for my needs at first, but about a week ago it started publishing content on its own that isn’t mine, and that I definitely don’t want on my website at all. I removed the plugin quite quickly and found an alternative.

  • A Hidden Jewel

    This is a simple plugin that gives us exactly what we wanted. It's easy to setup and use. It saves extra steps by posting our YouTube videos to our website automatically. Works just as stated.

  • maximum API reached???

    Ok, originally wasn't working in trial mode but I got it working now so revising my review. Looks pretty good, I assume I can import the video description & tags with the Pro Version? Would be a great feature for SEO.

  • Exactly what I needed!

    Easy to just sync videos in bulk, really love the flexibility and the automated import that runs in the background and gets my new videos on the site

  • Nice mini Tool with some bugs

    Very limited little Tool With some Bugs ,IT show API limit Errors where is non, Auto Import only works with channel not lists .Expecting the Bugs are in the Pro too. Nice is the Thumbnail import and Good Idea and conzept = 2 Stars There are other opensource wp plugins with much more options

  • Brilliant Plugin! (but needs exclude function)

    Simple, beautiful, just works. The only thing I'd like to be added would be some function to exclude imports by YouTube tag or category.
