The video player loads sometimes, but not usually. I think it's a caching issue, but can't pinpoint it. I recently started using WT3 Total Cache, however, even when disabled, the issue still occurs. One error came up in the browser inspect console, but doesn't show every time:

GET https://www.youtube.com/s/player/ac058a09/www-widgetapi.vflset/www-widgetapi.js net::ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED player_api:3

The video thumbnails show okay, and when you click on one, the video player appears and will play it.

I couldn’t put this link in the main post, due to one link already being there, but here’s an example page: https://www.humortimes.com/videos/1802-funny-videos-2/
