First thing...
I thank God for graciously, through His mercy, giving me all the necessary knowledge acquired throughout my life and throughout the development of this project. It is only through His grace and provision that this was possible, and I am truly grateful for His presence every step of the way.
For of Him, and through Him, and to Him, are all things: to whom be glory forever. Amen.
Apostle Paul in Romans 11:36
[!IMPORTANT] Domain Update Notice
Our previous domains — youphptube.com and youphp.tube — are being retired following a dispute initiated by Google LLC (YouTube).
Although we firmly believe that YouPHPTube has always been an independent, open-source project, created to empower developers and organizations to host their own video platforms, we have decided to respect the process and move forward peacefully.
🆕 Please update your bookmarks and references to the new official domain:
👉 https://streamphp.com/
Thank you for your continued support and for standing with open-source freedom.

White label and layouts
AVideo can run as a video website under your own brand. Start with Site Design and Templates:
- Your identity: use your own domain, site title, logo, and favicon. Configure these through the site settings; see the Quick Start Guide.
- White-label branding: the paid Customize plugin lets you replace the Powered by AVideo footer, customize the About page and site colors, and replace default placeholder images.
- Custom design: add your own CSS or JavaScript, or build a separate frontend connected to the AVideo API.
Choose a presentation that fits your content:
The built-in homepage layouts are free and selected in Admin Panel → Design → First Page Style. The React frontend is deployed separately. See layout options for the differences.
You can also choose light and dark themes, change the player appearance, and adjust menus, buttons, and extra HTML with the free CustomizeAdvanced plugin.
Monetization
You can combine several revenue models on the same site. See the monetization overview for setup and payment flows.
