Turning off referral of videos in Youtube

April 1, 2017 by chrisbog

When you embed a YouTube video in WordPress, sometimes you don’t want Youtube to suggest other videos.

YouTube allows you to manually turn off related videos when embedding in WordPress. Simply add ?rel=0 at the end of your video URL like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzOOy1tWBCg?rel=0

Since we have appended the URL with ?rel=0, it fetches an embed code with suggested videos or recommended videos turned off.
