Plugin crashes on private items before checking if they're YouTube videos #42

Description

The YouTubeImport plugin crashes when processing exhibit attachments that are private or deleted, even when those items are not YouTube videos. The plugin hooks into filterExhibitAttachmentMarkup which runs on ALL exhibit attachments (images, PDFs, etc.), but it attempts to access item metadata before validating that the item is accessible.

When items are private or deleted, $attachment->getItem() returns null due to ACL restrictions. The code immediately calls metadata($item, ...) with a null value, causing the exception.

Adding this validation at line 157 appears to fix the issue:

/ Handle null or inaccessible items (private items, deleted items, etc.)
if (!$item || !($item instanceof Omeka_Record_AbstractRecord)) {
return $html;
}
