详情介绍:
Vital Video is a WordPress block plugin designed to improve Core Web Vitals performance when displaying YouTube videos.
Instead of traditional embedding, it provides a lightweight, performance-optimized solution that first loads a clickable video thumbnail.
The Vital Video Block doesn’t play videos in the WordPress editor. It’s designed to prioritize performance and user experience on your frontend. To test video behavior, simply preview your post or page.
Features
- Performance-first YouTube video display.
- Automatic video thumbnail and title retrieval.
- WebP image support for faster image loading.
- Customizable aspect ratios (4:3 and 16:9).

- Multiple thumbnail quality options.
- Minimal initial page load impact.
- Option to disable WebP images if unavailable.
- Advanced video playback controls.
- Uses YouTube's no-cookie thumbnail service.
- Respects modern browser autoplay policies.
- Alt text matches the video title.
- Thumbnail dimensions set based on selected image size:
- HQ (480x320): Default size
- SD (640x480): Standard size
- MAX (1280x720): Highest available resolution

- WebP is enabled by default. Most thumbnails will use the WebP format.
- However, if you encounter a dummy placeholder image, try selecting a different thumbnail size to see if another WebP version exists.

常见问题:
Why would I disable WebP images?
= What is the Mute Toggle? =\ The Mute Toggle gives you control over video playback:
- Mute Toggle Off: Videos require two clicks to play and start with sound.
- Mute Toggle On: Videos play immediately but are muted by default.
- WebP is faster, but YouTube doesn’t always provide WebP thumbnails.
- If you see a dummy placeholder image, try different thumbnail sizes first.
- If none work, enable "Disable WebP Images" to fall back on JPG or other formats.
Can I change the position of the title?
- Yes, you can overwrite the CSS.
- Use the selector .wp-block-greuts-vital-video .vital-video .video-title {} and the property: place-self: with the values start, end or center;
- examples place-self: end; = bottom/right place-self: start center; = top/center
- Here you can also edit the text and background of the title.
