Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records Embed Privacy version 1.14.0 as active, updated 2mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.

Overview

About this plugin

Content embedded from external sites such as YouTube or Twitter is loaded immediately when visitors access your site. Embed Privacy addresses this issue and prevents the loading of these contents until the visitor decides to allow loading of external content.

But Embed Privacy not only protects your visitor’s privacy but also makes your site load faster.

All embeds will be replaced by placeholders, ready for you to apply style as you wish. With only a couple of lines of CSS.

By clicking on the placeholder the respective content will then be loaded.

Note: This plugins requires the PHP extension “Document Object Model” (php-dom).
