Embed videos in Joomla articles — responsive, private, effortless

Supported platforms

YouTube (incl. Shorts), Vimeo, Dailymotion, Facebook (watch & reels), Twitch, TikTok, Wistia and Rumble.

Key features

One simple tag: {video}https://youtu.be/ID{/video} anywhere in your content.
Fully responsive with selectable aspect ratios (16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 9:16, 21:9).
Privacy first (GDPR-friendly): enhanced-privacy mode uses youtube-nocookie.com and
Vimeo Do Not Track, reducing visitor tracking.
Performance: lazy loading defers each video until it is about to enter the viewport.
Per-video overrides: set width, ratio, autoplay,
muted, loop and controls right in the tag.
Configurable defaults and a per-site list of enabled providers.
Custom CSS field for fine-tuning the look.
Built for Joomla 5 & 6: namespaced plugin, DI service provider, secure escaped output.
One-click updates via Joomla's native update system, with SHA-256 package verification.
