    I am trying to html tag code youtube video to auto play, I put the code in, <iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/C9sYgqRtZGg&autoplay=1″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen> (old code) as well as <iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/C9sYgqRtZGg&autoplay=1″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen> (new code), and neither one works in wordpress, however, when I do this in my HTML editor, conTEXT, it works fine, is there a way to auto play youtube video in WP?

    I put the code in, <iframe

    Well, you can’t use iFrame for one thing.

    And why would you want to offend and alienate visitors by autoplaying anything?

    not sure about the <iframe…it is what I get when I copy the embed code from youtube…that part has been working for the last three years I have been putting youtube videos on my blog…
