## Description

Easily Embed Dynamic Lazy Loading Youtube Videos And More Simply By Pasting The 
Url.

This plugin does most of the work client side, and waits for the page to finish 
loading so embeds do not slow down your site.
 Shortcodes are not needed (but are
available), just add a clickable link to the youtube video, and the plugin will 
find all the youtube.com and youtu.be links, and replace them with an embed.

You know how sites like discord let you paste a youtube url, and an embed of the
video shows up?
 This plugin works kind of like that, while also working with playlists,
live streams, channels, youtube search, etc.

YouTube has an organized url system, and this plugin recognizes it.
 Every youtube
playlist id starts with “PL”, and youtube uses many other consistent url methods
like this.

Now supports local pdf embeds.
 Now supports google doc to pdf embeds.

This plugin allowes you to optionally load assets from cdn.jsdelivr.net, to improve
performance and load the assets from the github repository of this plugin. By default,
the plugin loads assets locally, but you can change this to use jsdelivr in the 
plugin settings. When Enabled, The jsdelivr [Acceptable Use Policy](https://www.jsdelivr.com/terms/acceptable-use-policy-jsdelivr-net)
and [Privacy Policy](https://www.jsdelivr.com/terms/privacy-policy-jsdelivr-net)
Apply.

the rest.
