Why is the embedded player displaying an error message?
If you see an error message in the embedded player, check your privacy settings.
- Make sure you’ve allowed your website’s domain to embed your video.
- Videos set to “Private” can only be seen by other team members on your Vimeo account, even if they’re embedded elsewhere. Use "Unlisted" instead.
How can I customize the embedded player?
You can refer to ‘How to customize the embedded player’ for information about customization options for the player.
If you’re more comfortable with HTML, we have a reference of player parameters you can add to further customize the embedded player.
Why does the embedded player look different on my webpage?
The size and position of the player iframe can be influenced by the styling of your webpage. This is common when using pre-built themes or plugins in webpage builders such as WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace. If you are setting the dimensions in your embed code correctly, but the Vimeo player is displaying differently, we suggest checking your webpage builder to see if any additional formatting is being applied to the player iframe.
