Dynamically Display Synced Data Anywhere

Once your YouTube data lives in WordPress, you need to show it. Video Sync Pro ships blocks and a shortcode that display YouTube data in WordPress, putting any synced value on the page.

What It Does

Blocks and Shortcodes surface synced YouTube data directly in your content. Use the YouTube metadata shortcode or the YouTube blocks for WordPress to embed YouTube fields, a responsive player, or a chosen thumbnail, and each value reads from the synced post so it stays current every time the source updates.

Key Capabilities

• Output any field, an embed, or a thumbnail with the [wpbuoy-video-sync] shortcode.
• Insert the Video Embed, Field, and Image blocks in the editor.
• Pull live values such as titles, view counts, and published dates.
• Reuse synced data across templates without copying it by hand.

How to Use It

In the editor, add a Video Sync block and choose the post and field you want, or place the [wpbuoy-video-sync] shortcode with the field and post ID. Every synced post also offers a Copy shortcode button in its metabox, so you can grab a working snippet in one click.

Why It Matters

Static copies of YouTube data go stale the moment a view count changes. Because blocks and shortcodes read from the synced post, your displayed values update whenever Video Sync refreshes the source, keeping pages accurate without manual edits.
