## Description

This plugin searches your posts for YouTube embeds and then wraps the player with
share buttons that appear on hover when view on desktop or display on place when
view on mobile devices. There’s both a share button for Facebook and for Twitter
that share your current post URL. When the post share on Facebook, it share the 
full URL. When sharing on Twitter however, it uses the shortlink, so that the tweet
does not surpass the 180 character limit. It works with both regular YouTube iFrame
embeds and the oEmbed system.

## Installation

 1. Upload `wpdev-youtube-share-plugin` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. And enjoy share buttons on your YouTube embeds!

## FAQ

  Is there a control panel or options page?

Since this plugin is so straight forward, there isn’t a control panel or options
page as it truly isn’t needed.

  Can I update the styles?

You can do so using your own stylesheet, whether is be a custom.css file or a child
theme stylesheet.

  What size should the YouTube player be?

It would be best if the player were as wide as it can be. I suggest setting iFrames
to be 100% width within the content in order for everything to look great.
