About Youtube Channel Feeds and Subscribe Box WordPress Plugin

This WordPress plugin, originally sold on CodeCanyon, is built to show a YouTube channel's videos on your site and to add a subscribe box that invites visitors to follow the channel. It is filed under WordPress plugin and Envato plugin categories.

The listing gives no feature list, no demos and no version number. Check the documentation in the package for layout options, shortcodes and what it needs from YouTube, which may be an API key. The file on record dates from February 2020, and YouTube's API rules have changed since, so test it on staging first.

Key features

Channel video feed
Intended to pull videos from a YouTube channel and show them on your pages.
Subscribe box
Adds a box that invites visitors to subscribe to the channel.
WordPress plugin
Installs from a zip file like any other WordPress plugin.
Options not stated
The listing doesn't state layouts, shortcodes or limits; read the documentation in the package.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

  • Creators who want their latest videos displayed on their own WordPress site
  • Sites that want a clear subscribe call to action next to the videos

Look elsewhere if

  • Sites that only need to embed a few single videos, which the standard editor handles
  • Anyone who needs a documented feature list before starting

How to install Youtube Channel Feeds and Subscribe Box WordPress Plugin

  1. 1

    Download the file

    Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.

  2. 2

    Upload it to WordPress

    In your dashboard go to Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin and choose the zip.

  3. 3

    Install and activate

    Click Install Now, then Activate. If an older or free copy is already installed, WordPress offers to replace it with the uploaded version.

Notes for this product

  • Plugins like this often need a YouTube Data API key from Google. The listing doesn't say; check the documentation.

Setup: using Youtube Channel Feeds and Subscribe Box WordPress Plugin

  1. Install on a staging copy. The file dates from 2020, so test it with your current WordPress and PHP first.
  2. Read the documentation. Find out how to connect your channel and whether you need a Google API key.
  3. Connect your channel. Enter your channel details in the plugin's settings and save them.
  4. Place the feed and subscribe box. Add them to a page or widget area with the method the documentation gives, then view the page on a phone.

Common problems and fixes

The feed is empty or shows an error
Why it happens
The plugin may need a valid YouTube API key, or the key has hit its quota or is restricted.
How to fix it
Check the key and its restrictions in your Google account, then re-enter it in the plugin settings.
“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading
Why it happens
The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
How to fix it
Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.
“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”
Why it happens
The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
How to fix it
Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.
“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”
Why it happens
Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
How to fix it
Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.
Licence or “updates unavailable” notices
Why it happens
The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
How to fix it
Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.
