Difficulties with YouTube Videos plugin

If you mean the dev app secret and API keys in the plugin’s settings then no, I did not set them. They are blank. The only thing I can think to suggest is to start over with your Google project/keys. Create a new set of credentials and follow the instructions even more carefully.

Then you’ll want the OAuth2 method of authenticating, so each user can see their own data from Google. The secret and key are for your own account.
