After figuring out how to embed a Vimeo video, and have it autoplay without any interface controls all of a sudden some of the embeds wouldn't show themselves anymore. In the website editor it shows up just fine. I have a 2x2 carousel that displays different video embeds on several portfolio pages. I have this glitch on every single page.
Have you checked the permissions on Vimeo for those videos? I've seen several issues with videos not showing up because of certain permissions. Usually I set things to embed only on these sites, and then list the SQSP URL as well as the public URL so it shows.
The videos are all set to 'Unlisted' which has always worked for me in the past with different website builders. The videos that are showing up are also set to unlisted. Initially, the videos would show the error 'video could not be found' but this was fixed by adding a line of text to the video link in the embed code provided by the vimeo forums.
I have a customer that would like to block vimeo completely but allow it specifically from one website, aaregistry.org. I have PAN-OS 4.1.6 running right now and have tried to use a custom URL category in my rule to allow vimeo specifically from that one URL, but I am having no luck. I also even added vimeo.com to the URL category and it doesn't seem to be working, am I doing this right? (screenshots attached)
My block rule works, it blocks vimeo for my user account completely, but adding my allow rule did not grant me access to vimeo on aaregistry.org, or even vimeo.com after I added that to the custom URL category.
Thanks mikand, I was actually able to get this working by allowing the Vimeo application for the websites player.vimeo.com and aaregistry.org and then blocking it for all other sites. They also asked me to attempt to set up the same sort of thing for Youtube videos but I was unable to get that to work as the URL is always www.youtube.com for those videos, even embedded.
So I guess if you add *.vimeo.com and *.vimeocdn.com your allowrule would start to work. However this will also open up for any other vimeo from other sites - I dont know if its possible for PA to setup the rule as a parent (only allow *.vimeo.com and *.vimeocdn.com if the referer is *.aaregistry.org, perhaps you can create custom app that does this?).
I understand you have an answer you like. As this post comes up when searching for Vimeo and YouTube, and for the sake of completeness in the forums, I'd like to point out that allowing player.vimeo.com allows Vimeo on just about any other website embedding Vimeo. While this may be fine for what you are doing, it may not be the result others are after.
I am attempting to block Vimeo by use of blocking the URL category streaming media on my own network, while using Vimeo to stream videos from my own website. I do not have the "application" blocked, just the URL category.
While these examples specify my videos, you would need to figure out your own video GUIDs/identifiers and add them. The YouTube example has been working for me for years with minor additions over the years. The Vimeo whitelist is new to me.
We had some embedded videos that simply would not work until I found your post. We are only using the URL filter, not application based. The only difference I had was that I had to add the following two links as well:
So far I have been able to get away with just the *.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ur3tVeAqXE style links, except for when using embedded links one time. I had to add the following link as well, youtu.be/8Ur3tVeAqXE to make it work then.
If it works here but not there, something in your site configuration has to be different. The link also works on my Digital Ocean hosted Discourse, which I just updated to absolute latest to make sure. I also made the post in the staff category to match your private post example, not that it should have mattered:
It is possible vimeo has blacklisted your server or your server IP ranges. One way to tell this is the case, is if other video oneboxes work fine (youtube, etc) and other types of oneboxes.
We bought a template from eSparkBiz that has been uploaded into our instance of Hubspot. As part of the page design we can embed a video. I have tested the code with a different youtube video and it works great but it falls over with vimeo.
I am having trouble when it comes to adding a video URL to my page.. I am currently using Narrative - Cold theme and there's a section after the heading you're able to put a video - link of Vimeo or youtube.. the youtube is working fine, but it shows the youtube channel I use to upload it on and their ability to copy the link on the top right corner (yes I specified on the settings that people cannot use my video for embedded and there was no option to not show channel on the top left)
Hey there, @TroyLu12__ . Thanks so much for reaching out to the Shopify Community today with your Vimeo video situation! I'm happy to discuss this situation with you, and see if we can get things resolved.
Good idea to go with Vimeo in order to help boost your privacy and protect your content! Vimeo doesn't require any sort of special formatting when adding a video to your Shopify theme sections, unlike YouTube, so issues with having a video actually play are most often related to the settings of the Vimeo Video itself. We can do a few tests here to confirm this.
Often times in situations where Vimeo is giving folks trouble, a reachout to Vimeo for support is needed. However, before I advise on that being something we need to do, I'd love to hear the results of the above tests! Please, give those tests a try and follow up with me to let me know how things go!

I am having also issue with vimeo link added to my page. The video is public on vimeo settings but still when I enter link video on my shopify page at " add URL video", it say's "Can't connect to Vimeo. Please try again later."
Thanks for providing a copy of the error message you're receiving. Sometimes, this message can appear when the theme you're using in your store has issues playing the video. So, you video could actually be on your website currently, but the message is trying to tell you that the length/quality of the video may prevent it from being played as expected. We have a way to test this:
The goal here is to see if the video is presenting on your site at all, or if it's not even appearing where it should. This step will help use determine specifically what that error messaging is trying to tell us.
I am trying to embed a Vimeo showcase into a confluence article using the widget connector. Vimeo Showcases, essentially, are just videos grouped together in one link. The videos are not private & I have granted vimeo access to embed the content on my jira site. However, when I enter the URL into the widget connector I get this error:
I'm not sure Confluence supports Vimeo Showcases yet; were you ever able to embed a Showcase in Confluence that contains only public videos? Would you be able to try that just to confirm the feature works? If it does not, then I can raise a feature request to include embedding of Vimeo Showcases in Confluence.
A shortcode is a simple snippet inside a content file that Hugo will render using a predefined template. Note that shortcodes will not work in template files. If you need the type of drop-in functionality that shortcodes provide but in a template, you most likely want a partial template instead.
In addition to cleaner Markdown, shortcodes can be updated any time to reflect new classes, techniques, or standards. At the point of site generation, Hugo shortcodes will easily merge in your changes. You avoid a possibly complicated search and replace operation.
