What should I do if my YouTube feed isn't displaying correctly in WordPress?

If your YouTube feed isn't displaying, check that you've correctly configured the YouTube API settings in the Nexter Blocks plugin. Ensure that the feed type (User Feed, Channel, Playlist, or Search) is set correctly. Sometimes, caching issues can also prevent updates from showing, so clearing your site cache might help.
