A Link in Bio That Shows Recent YouTube Videos Automatically
ManyLinks can show recent YouTube uploads without replacing links manually. Learn how cached updates, video filters and plan refresh rates work.
ManyLinks can show recent videos from a YouTube channel without making you replace a fixed video URL after each upload. The channel block uses cached data and can display recent thumbnails and subscriber information. It is useful for keeping a page maintained, but it does not update instantly when you publish.
How the block works
Add your channel URL as a link and use its YouTube presentation. Larger layouts can show recent uploads; compact layouts focus on the channel name or subscriber information. Filters select long videos, Shorts or all videos, so the first item shown may depend on your chosen filter.
This is different from a fixed YouTube video link, which keeps pointing at the same video. It is also different from a universal redirect that always sends every click to your newest upload: the channel block contains channel and video destinations.
How often it updates
Social channel data normally refreshes every 7 days on Free and 24 hours on Pro. Updates run in the background. A failed refresh leaves the last successful data visible, so an upload can take longer to appear.
For a launch where everyone must see one specific video immediately, add or update a normal video link yourself. Keep a recent-videos block alongside it for browsing.
Set up and check your page
- Add your public YouTube channel URL.
- Choose a block size that displays videos, then select the appropriate video filter.
- Allow the initial channel data to load.
- Preview the public page on mobile and verify the thumbnails and destinations.
The block is included on Free. Pro is displayed at 10.82 EUR monthly or 99.99 EUR annually; see current pricing.
Compare alternatives fairly
Linktree also supports automatically displaying or opening a channel's latest YouTube video on Pro and Premium. Its YouTube documentation describes those options. Compare the layout, refresh behavior and subscription you need rather than assuming automation is unique to one service.
