Random Video in WordPress Sidebar

by Kimi on May 7, 2010

Adding random youtube videos in wordpress sidebar using a plugin.

I don’t know much about php programming language, and i am sure lots of people out there are the same.

But thanks to wordpress plugins developers, they are awesome and found easy ways for us to do many things in wordpress without doing the code ourselves.


In this Video we are going to display random video in your sidebar widget using this Video Sidebar Widget plugin.

So first is we are going to find at least five videos that we like to embed. And it happens the same as my previous video (How to add youtube to sidebar wordpress).  If you click the post and the video is not appearing, it might be caused by your template not including get_sidebar code.

Hi Kimi

Just want to say thank you for the excellent post concerning installing the video widget for sidebars! This is something I was very much dreading to do a being that I am not a technologically advanced type of guy. I followed your video step by step and installed the video player widget, however not the random video player widget that you demonstrated.

Great information – I am certain I will come back to see what else I can learn as I am a new blogger only three months into this blogging experience.

Thanks!

Dave
