Troubleshooting

No videos or API error

• Confirm the API key is pasted, YouTube Data API v3 is enabled, and the key is restricted by server IP (not referrer). Check channel handle or playlist ID.

Referrer restriction error

• PHP sends an empty Referer. Switch the key to IP restriction in Google Cloud Console.

Quota exceeded

• Raise API cache minutes. Reduce module count or pagination frequency on high-traffic pages.

Load more stops or duplicates

• Clear Joomla cache and hard-refresh. Search and pagination pause each other until search is cleared.

Styles look wrong

• Hard-refresh (Ctrl+F5). Check template CSS conflicts. Try module class suffix or adjust accent colours.

Language keys show as MOD_EASYYOUTUBEFEED_*

• Reinstall the zip so language files copy to language/en-GB/. Clear cache.
