Yes.

What about previous embeds?

Since WordPress caches all embed codes, previous embeds from other sites will still work. However, your own site’s embeds won’t work at all when using this plugin.

Finally, a no-fuss plugin that does exactly what it promises! Disable Embeds by Pascal Birchler is perfect if you’re tired of WordPress’s automatic embed features slowing down your site. Just activate and boom – no more unwanted embeds cluttering your content or others embedding your posts without permission. Love how it removes all the JavaScript bloat too. The best part? It’s reversible – just deactivate when you need embeds back. Clean, lightweight, and effective!
