modestbranding not working for YouTube embed


I'm trying to hide the YouTube logo that appears in the bottom right had corner of an embed. For some reason modestbranding=1 is not working:

<iframe class="gtms-intro" style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;" width="1280" height="720" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ywFGJecodxQ?rel=0&amp;controls=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;autoplay=1&amp;loop=1&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;playlist=ywFGJecodxQ" frameborder="0"></iframe>

Solution

  • Problem is with how you added the parameters. Inside the link you are supposed to add parameters like so:

    "http://www.myLink.com?first_param=1&second_param=0&third_param=3"
    

    No amp; in between. As a result, your iFrame is supposed to look like this:

    <iframe class="gtms-intro" style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;" width="1280" height="720" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ywFGJecodxQ?rel=0&controls=0&showinfo=0&autoplay=1&loop=1&modestbranding=1&playlist=ywFGJecodxQ" frameborder="0"></iframe>
    

    Hope it helped.
