## FAQ

### How do I add YouTube videos?

After activating the plugin, go to **Videos** in the WordPress admin menu. Click**
Add New**, enter a title, and paste the YouTube video URL in the **Details of Video**
meta box. You can also assign a category and optional description for each video.

### How do I display the gallery on a page or post?

Add the shortcode `[lryg-youtube-grid-gallery]` to any page, post, or widget area
that supports shortcodes. You can also insert it from the visual editor using the
LR YouTube Grid Gallery TinyMCE button.

### What shortcode options are available?

The shortcode supports these attributes:

 * `order` – Sort direction: `ASC` or `DESC` (default: `DESC`)
 * `orderby` – Sort field: `date`, `name`, or `rand` (default: `date`)
 * `posts` – Number of videos to show (default: `6`; use `-1` to show all)
 * `category` – Category slug to filter by, or `all` for every category (default:`
   all`)

Example: `[lryg-youtube-grid-gallery order="DESC" orderby="date" posts="6" category
="all"]`

### How do I organize videos into categories?

Go to **Videos > Categories** in the admin menu and create categories as needed.
Assign categories when editing a video, then use the `category` shortcode attribute
with the category slug to display only videos from that group.

### What YouTube URL formats are supported?

The plugin accepts standard YouTube links such as:

 * `https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID`
 * `https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID&feature=related`
 * `https://youtu.be/VIDEO_ID`

### How are videos played on the frontend?

Videos are shown in a responsive grid. When a visitor clicks a thumbnail, the video
opens in a lightbox popup powered by WordPress Thickbox.

### Can I use a custom thumbnail image?

Yes. If you set a featured image on a video post, that image is used as the thumbnail
instead of the default YouTube preview image.

### Where can I change video and thumbnail sizes?

Go to **Videos > LRYG Settings** to configure default video player dimensions, thumbnail
sizes, and the global autoplay option.

### Can I control playback options per video?

Yes. When editing a video, the **Details of Video** meta box lets you set video 
quality, whether to show suggested videos when playback ends, player controls, and
title display options.

### Does this plugin work with any theme?

Yes. LR YouTube Grid Gallery is designed to work with any WordPress theme. The grid
layout uses included styles that adapt to most theme setups.

### Do I need a YouTube API key?

No. The plugin works by storing YouTube URLs and embedding videos directly. No API
key or external account connection is required.
