Bugfixes

  • Even more YouTube embed fixes, also fixes empty Youtube ID issue.
  • Properly grab thumbnail from YouTube instead of "assuming" a URL.
  • Improve code that grabs duration from YouTube API.

Enhancements

  • Add support for searching through category / tag / term descriptions for video content.
  • Get viewcount from YouTube API.
  • Add option to hide sitemap from everyone except admins and Googlebot.
  • Add option to disable the video integration on a single post and page by adding a checkbox on the Video tab.
  • Changed the way reindex gets called, so the admin keeps working immediately after a reindex without a refresh.

    they're just refreshed but no external calls are being done).
