Dynamic playlists (different playlist on different pages using one widget)

We need to be able to show different YouTube playlists on different pages of our website.

But the way you’ve designed your widget would require us to create multiple Elfsight YouTube widgets, and then create multiple copies of EVERY template on our website just so we can show the right YouTube widget on the right pages–which would be a maintenance nightmare.

Or we would need to create a lot of if/else logic in every template to check which Elfsight YouTube widget to load in different circumstances, which would slow down performance on all our pages.

Instead, it would be great if you could give us a way to design one YouTube widget layout for our channel, with a list of playlists we want to support. Then allow us to pass in a parameter from individual pages of our website, which would tell the widget which of our predefined playlists to display.

(This is different from your Source Groups, which just add more videos to the SAME widget. We would like the ability to have one widget which can show DIFFERENT playlists on different pages.)
