I have also tried your code and will be implementing it to my own website at Top SEO Providers.

Now I dont need to mannually add name=”wmode” value=”transparent” every time I want to embed a video..

Thanks Again,
Nimitz

Seems you’re not the only one complaining about wmode getting stripped on the Chrome browser… and the common solution would be to put in the wmode inside the embed as an attribute as well… which is a thing the script adds in properly already.

I don’t think the order is what would solve this in the long run (might be just a quirk which would solve it temporarily until a new version comes out). There are a ton of issues around this matter on Chromium issue tracker, so it’s probably due to be solved.

Thanks again!

Added a quick strpos check (for youtube and missing wmode) before the actual preg_replace because these are relatively slow and not always needed:


if(!function_exists('add_video_wmode_opaque')) {
function add_video_wmode_opaque($html, $url, $attr) {
if (strpos($html, "youtube" ) !== false && strpos($html, "wmode" ) == false) {
$html = preg_replace('/feature=oembed/', '$0&wmode=opaque', $html);
$html = preg_replace('/(object|embed).*?height=\"\d+\"/', '$0 wmode="opaque"', $html);
}
return $html;
}
}
add_filter('embed_oembed_html', 'add_video_wmode_opaque', 10, 3);


I’m not even sure the second preg_replace (for object/embed) is necessary any more… Or are there still cases where the iframe embed is not produced?
