No need for any strange embed codes any more. Another advantage is that you can manage the settings for all of your embedded videos from the settings for Video Embedder and that the embedded videos won’t break the validation.

Are you using another Wordpress plugin for managing your YouTube/embedded videos today? It is very easy to switch to Video Embedder, just enter the old tag in the plugin settings and you are ready to go. Get more information and download it for free here…

Since TinyMCE doesn’t add a alt attribute if you empty the alt field it breaks validation. It can be a bit frustrating to add them manually in Wordpress, now you’ll never have to do that again…
