We are currently seeking users to help translate YouTube for WordPress, to make it more readily available to the rest of the world. Currently we have the plugin translated into :

English (en_EN) – Evan Herman
Serbian (sr_RS) – thanks goes to the First Guide team for the translation

If your interested in helping out with translations, please consider grabbing a copy of the .pot file located in the language folder in the root of YouTube for WordPress. Any and all translators will get credit in the readme and on the YouTube for WordPress site.

YouTube for WordPress is built up on the latest version of the YouTube API (v3.0) enabling some truly amazing features out of the box. Some features include (but are not limited to) uploading new content to your account, browsing your entire channel, searching YouTube for new videos/playlists/channels, keeping up with your subscriptions, insert single videos or entire playlists and so much more.

Anyone using YouTube as their video hosting solution should be using this plugin. Check out the YouTube for WordPress demo site for examples, documentation, tutorials, support and premium add-ons.

Due to the overwhelming popularity of this plugin, support will be provided to support license holders first.
