CSS for YouTube channel image

Hi There,
I have noticed in the past several weeks that YouTube has started adding an icon in the upper left corner that was not there before. I have tried hiding it with CSS but am stumped.

More later. . .

Thanks very much.

Hi NLeVasseur,

Let me explain why it is not possible to do what you want.

The Youtube Channel that you see on the page is pulled from youtube using iFrame. So the actual code is pulled from the Youtube and you do not have any control over that code.

Actually, browsers have a new feature completely blocking any change to the original code with a policy called cross-domain restriction. Think of a window that you can open and see the street, but you can not control the people walking there.

So, unfortunately, you can not change that.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hey Christopher,
My fears have been confirmed! I totally get it. I had also suspected that even if we could hide it on our end, we might be breaking some of YouTube’s terms of usage etc.

Thank you for your response, explanation and analogy. I’ll pass that on to the client.

Again, many thanks!
Nancy

You are most welcome. :slight_smile:

Hey Prasant,
I’ve noticed that YouTube is also displaying related videos at the end. This used to be an option to deselect. I’ve tried inserting the rel=0, but to no avail.

Is there another solution, or is this part of the cross domain restriction.

Thanks very much!
Nancy

Hi There,

According to new changes made by YouTube on Sept 2018, suggested videos couldn’t be disabled. For more information, please take a look at this:
