This plugin replaces the video embed with a facade and fetches additional image sizes which are more responsive. This all helps with the initial loading time of pages using the core/embed. It also replaces the default youtube URL with a no-cookie alternative.
This plugin filters the core/embed block code to make a few improvements:
- Replaces the video embed with a facade, in this case a placeholder image
- Fetches multiple image sizes from the video provider and adds
srcsetandsizesattributes to the new image element - Adds
widthandheightattributes to the image element
Currently, only the providers listed below are supported. Even when one of these is used, the URL provided must match a specific format in order to be caught by our filters.
- YouTube
- Vimeo
- Dailymotion
