For embedding and managing video content directly on your WordPress site, consider using a plugin that can handle video playback and organization effectively. Here are a couple of popular options:
- Video Gallery – YouTube Gallery: Ideal if you choose to upload your videos to YouTube. It helps manage and display videos in a gallery format directly from YouTube.
- Envira Gallery: Offers a video addon that allows you to create beautiful, responsive video galleries. It supports videos from YouTube, Vimeo, Wistia, and self-hosted videos.
- WP Video Lightbox: This plugin allows you to display videos in a lightbox style, which could be an attractive way to keep your current design intact.
Hi @warakaku,
For your following concerns:
1) Any recommended plugin for a video player and video list for my site?
- My recommendation is to just use the YouTube video block. Watch the video: https://share.zight.com/9Zu9vnoW
- Just add more YouTube blocks to embedded more videos and play around with the layout.
- Maximizing the use of blocks on your page will avoid us using as many plugins as possible, which could increase your website memory usage.
- More memory usage would make your website slow.
- But still, you have the option to use third-party plugins based on your preferences.
2) Should I upload all videos on YouTube? Can I avoid ads?
- Yes, you can.
- You need the YouTube link embedded on the page of your website.
- You can also disable the ads on your YouTube video. Just follow this step-by-step guide for your reference.
3) If I upload all 28 videos on my media library (not using YouTube), would my site become very slow?
- There are possibilities that it will make your website slow.
- More videos uploaded to your website; more memory usage on your server;
- The best recommendation is to embedded it on your website.
Hope this helps.

Jerry
