   When I upload a new YouTube video to my YouTube channel, my blog posts on my website that have a YouTube video in them update to the new video I uploaded to YouTube. They should be retaining the original video I wanted. How can I fix this?

   Thank you!

   Hi tessgacreative,

   There should be nothing within the theme that even has that capability.

   How are you adding in the youtube videos to your posts/pages on your site?

   My YouTube issue is with the social media icon - I'm trying to add my own icons to a footer widget and when I add my YouTube icon and link it there - the icon automatically has a layover image added to it and does not link properly. Please help me with this - http://whcc.webtegrity.com/

   Tess - as for your issue - are you using an additional plugin for this YouTube channel feature?

   I have the same issue ... using the replete theme and a text widget

   i added the icon using a text widget and the following code ...

   <a href="http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT6v5"><img src="http://mydomain.com/socialicons/youTube.png" /></a>

   for some reason it is getting wrapped into the following css

   <a href="http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT6v5" rel="lightbox[auto_group1]">
   <img src="http://mydomain.com/socialicons/youTube.png" />
   <span class="image_overlay_effect lightbox_video" style="display: block; z-index: 5; opacity: 0;">
   <span class="image_overlay_effect_inside"></span></a>

   The theme does automatically detect video and media URLs and wraps them in the code for prettyPhoto. You need to add the class noLightbox so that does not happen.

   Example:
   <a class="noLightbox" href="http://www.youtube.com/">Youtube</a>

   I'm going to lock the topic so only the original poster can respond from now however so this doesn't get further derailed. If you are still having issues with the links (different than this main topic) just make a new topic in the theme forum.

   Regards,
