How Do I Make YouTube Videos Play Automatically in WordPress?

YouTube is one of the most popular video sharing websites on the internet. Millions of people use YouTube to watch clips of funny cat videos, dramatic music performances, and informative tutorials.

Unfortunately, if you want your YouTube videos to automatically play in your WordPress blog posts and pages, you’ll have to do some extra work.

First, you’ll need to add a little code to your WordPress theme or plugin. You can find a good example of code that does this at the WPBeginner blog. The code you’ll need to add is as follows:

Once you’ve added this code, your videos will start playing automatically when you publish a post or page. However, if you want your videos to automatically play in all of your posts and pages, you’ll need to add the same code to your WordPress theme or plugin.

Alternatively, you can use a plugin like Yoast SEO to add the code to all of your posts and pages automatically.

Overall, it’s not too difficult to add code to your WordPress blog post or page to make your YouTube videos play automatically. However, if you want to make the process easier, consider using a plugin or theme that includes the code already.
