Video Sync

Automatically sync YouTube channels, playlists, and videos into WordPress — saved as searchable content in the post type and taxonomy you choose. Full metadata, recurring schedules, and conditional filtering keep your library current, entirely on autopilot.


Built for serious YouTube workflows

Everything you need to turn a channel into WordPress content you own.

Manage unlimited YouTube channels in WordPress, each with independent sync rules and destinations

Sync Unlimited Channels

Connect every YouTube channel you manage from a single install — no per-channel add-on, no second license. Each runs its own sync rules, destination post types, and schedules independently, so clients and brands never collide. Add, pause, or reconfigure any channel while the others keep running untouched.

Automated YouTube import for WordPress running on a recurring schedule via WP-Cron

Recurring Sync Schedules

Turn any sync rule into a hands-off import on the schedule you set — hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or a custom interval. WordPress runs it in the background through WP-Cron, pulling in new videos and metadata while you’re away. Mix recurring and run-once rules across channels freely.

Assign taxonomies to imported YouTube videos in WordPress, sorting them into categories and tags automatically

Assign Any Taxonomy Term Automatically

Assign categories, tags, or any custom taxonomy term right inside the sync rule. Every video, playlist, and channel that rule imports is filed into place automatically the moment it lands — no manual sorting. Change your terms later and one update action refreshes everything already imported.

Filter Conditions in WPBuoy Video Sync set to import only matching YouTube videos before posts are created

Import Only What You Want

Define the criteria an item must meet before a rule imports it. Each candidate is evaluated before a post is ever created, so only the videos you want come through – sparing your library clutter and your API key wasted quota. Pair conditions with schedules to keep automated imports selective.

Import a YouTube channel into WordPress as posts

Map Any Field to Your Own Meta Keys

Map any YouTube field — including each individual thumbnail size — to the custom post meta keys your theme, blocks, or page builder already expect. Every synced item writes straight into your data model, and missing values are skipped so a blank never overwrites good data. Remap fields anytime without re-importing.

Display YouTube data in WordPress using the Video Sync blocks and shortcode for titles, views, and thumbnails

Dynamically Display Synced Data Anywhere

Place any synced YouTube value on the page with the Embed, Field, and Image blocks or a flexible shortcode. Each reads live from the synced post, so titles, view counts, and thumbnails stay current whenever the source updates. Copy a ready-to-paste snippet from any post’s metabox in one click.


And more under the hood

The finer controls that keep large libraries accurate and yours.
