Tubelastica

Description

Tubelastica provides a simple and reliable way to embed YouTube videos using a single Gutenberg block.

By default, the block behaves like a standard YouTube embed and plays videos inline. In narrow areas such as sidebars, the layout adapts to maintain a clean design and good user experience.

The plugin focuses on minimal output and compatibility. Videos are displayed using a standard 16:9 responsive layout, without decorative borders, colors, or additional UI elements.

External links are not supported.

Why do I see an image instead of a video in the sidebar?

In narrow areas such as sidebars, Tubelastica may display a clickable video thumbnail to preserve layout and usability.

What happens if I do not set a custom link?

If the custom link field is empty, the block behaves like a normal YouTube embed and plays the video inline.

Where should a custom link point to?

The custom link should point to a page where the video can be watched, such as a post, page, or video watch page.

Are external links supported?

No. External links are not supported.
