Add a Vimeo video
As well as YouTube videos, you can also add Vimeo videos to the page. You can also add videos you have not uploaded yourself.
To add a Vimeo video:
- Log on and start Site management.
- Click on: Edit (in the Page frame).
- Use the mouse to click the position where you want to add a video.
- Click on: Plug-ins.
- Click on: Vimeo video.
- Select the Show component frame and title check box if you want to display this data.
- Enter a value in Video ID.
- Go to www.video.com.
- Select the video you want to add.
- Click Share.
- You now open a link to the video.
- Select the number:
- Paste the number in Video id.
- Deselect Auto-play if the video should not start immediately when the page opens.
- Enter a value in Fixed width.
- Enter a value in Fixed height.
The height and the width depend on the settings of the plug-in. We cannot decide these for you. If you specify a height of 450 px for the plug-in then you need to specify this here. If you then specify a height of 300 px in the site, the plug-in is clipped.
- Click on: Create.
- Click on: Publish.
Vimeo video from a channel
If you access the video from a Channel, retrieve the video ID from the embed code.
Example:
You now no longer see the video ID in the link, but instead the address to the channel:
- http://vimeo.com/claudiobeier/fijiaandnewcaledonia
You can use this video as follows:
- Click on: 'Embed'
- Select the whole code.
- Press: Ctrl + C.
- Open a text editor (such as Notepad).
- Press: Ctrl + V.
You now see, for example, the following code:
<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/58004291?portrait=0&color=8a8a8a" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/58004291">Fiji & New Caledonia - A Trip We Never Forget</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/claudiobeier">Claudio Beier</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>
- Select the ID: 58004291
- Press:Ctrl + C.
- Go to:Video id.
