Add ability to pull just the embed URL or just the video id itself about oembed

[TUSAB-web]

@TUSAB-web did you find a way (not using wordsmith) to get the embed url as I want to lazy-load the iframe/embed as well.

I ended up using Wordsmith - once to pull the YouTube ID and also to pull the stuff after the question mark in the URL in case the video starts at a specific timestamp. I actually ended up just making my field a regular URL field instead of using oEmbed because I realized I wasn’t using its functionality, as wordsmith was pulling out the video ID for me, and the custom code linked above was pulling the poster image. Let me know if you want to see the code I ended up using; but since it doesn’t use oEmbed, I won’t put it in this thread.

I saw that the plugin Wordsmith can grab the video ID from a YouTube link... I will try and combine that with the output from your plugin and see if it works. I will report back on how it works.
