It works very well for my purposes (mainly lazyload and lightbox functionality). Recently I had a support issue with the new version which required some intervention – it was a conflict with my theme. Nico, the developer, went above and beyond to get a fix promptly sorted out for me. Thank you Nico. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The best there is – I have tried many… Have downloaded and paid for at least 4 other video players that use lightbox. Each one has major flaws. This products works perfectly. If you use the OnSite Editor, then just copy the short code and it works great. [arve url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7g8-GxLTSc” /] For speed, the product uses the thumbnails from the server. So many of the other products do NOT do this and it slows the page rendering. This product should appear first on the WordPress search. Spent 3 days of my life wasted on other products, only to delete each one. review by jodani ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Finally something that works So I have a responsive theme but on pages with you tube videos it wasn’t making the you tube videos fit in the mobile screen. I have spent the last hour trying many plugins and researching on google and finally I installed this. And I didn’t have to update any settings or anything just refreshed a post with videos and all the sudden it is beautiful and responsive on my mobile phone!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!! review by happyecho ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Only Plug-in that worked I used a lot of high ranking plug-ins but they still broke my design. Downloaded this and worked right away. Thanks! review by crconnell89 ARVE Pro 10% off first year with discount code wporg. This plugin is financed by purchases of ARVE Pro. The development and support of this plugins has become a job for me, so I hope you understand that I can not make all features gratis and that you purchase it to get extra features and support the development. Disable links in embeds (killer feature!) For example: Clicking on a title in a YouTube embed will not open a new tab. Prevent video hosts to lead your visitors away from your site! Lazyload Make your site load faster by loading only an image instead of the entire video player on pageload. Lightbox Shows the Video in a Lightbox after clicking a Lazyload preview image Link ⇾ Lightbox Use simple links as triggers for opening Video Lightboxes Auto pause videos when another video is played Automatic or custom thumbnail images Automatic or custom titles on top of your thumbnails ‘Expand on click’ feature 2 hover & 3 play icon styles Responsive thumbnails (srcset) Feel good about yourself for supporting my 8+ years work on this plugin. Tons of hours, weekends … always worked on improving it Show the latest video of a YouTube channel by using the channel URL (updated/cached hourly) Get ARVE Pro ARVE Sticky Videos Keep videos on the screen when scrolling. Choose if videos should be pinned to the top of the screen. Like the YouTube app for example. For bigger screen choose a corner where a video should be pinned to. Like last.fm for example.
