Vimeo videos not working

Any solution to this?

From what I can tell, the video IS still embedded, but the containing div has style="padding-bottom:0%;" on the element. Thus, the video is being collapsed.

Lines 398 and 399 in fluid-video-embeds.php seem to be the problem:

case 'vimeo':
$wrapper_padding = ( $this->meta['aspect'] * 100 ) . '%';

It looks like $this->meta['aspect'] isn’t returning any result on public or private Vimeo videos. Thus, it’s returning “0” and making the resulting CSS be padding-bottom: 0%.

I changed line 399 to the following, and things work now, but I know this is breaking some kind of aspect-ratio check.

$wrapper_padding = '56.25%';

Can you toss me a link to the public video that this issue is happening with? My demo page is fine, so I’m wondering if it has something to do with recent videos.

The video of the bridge was added as I typed this reply.

Hmmm… It’s not a recent videos thing either. The video of the oil derrick was uploaded 4 hours ago.

It might be an issue where your server has trouble contacting Vimeo. Or perhaps you added the video to your blog before it was finished uploading?

Just posted to add that I’m having similar problems – seems videos which we’ve had embedded elsewhere in the past are working, but ‘new’ videos (actually a similar age but haven’t yet been embedded elsewhere) are not… website under wraps at the moment but if you get in touch (my email is my username on here @gmail.com) I’d be happy to sort out access for you to see.

Any update on this?

The problem isn’t about my server connecting with Vimeo. It fully connects and embeds the video. The problem is that the above code in FVE is receiving no data from Vimeo for videos (at least mine) and returning “0.” Thus, the in-page CSS is setting the padding to 0, and effectively hiding the video that was successfully embedded.

Hi guys,
I’m sorry about the response time on this issue. My suspicion is that this is more of a (http) communication issue than an issue with Vimeo’s API. Either way, I fear that the correct solution to this is the addition of a catch-all checkbox similar to the one for YouTube: https://take.ms/ztIiO

I’ll try to make this change as soon as I can, but I will not promise a date. This plugin is just a hobby project for me, and my other responsibilities come first.

The latest update looked like it would fix this, but it didn’t. Videos are still collapsed and hidden.

Have you tried enabling the force 16:9 option for Vimeo?

Same problem here – and have tried forcing 16:9 for Vimeo, still no dice

Are you able to post the video URL and a link to the page this is happening on?

I had the problem as well. But then I noticed that the video’s causing problems had “album” and “video” in the link (i.e. vimeo.com/album/111111111/video/00000) .

By removing that, and simply linking to the video from the embed link from vimeo (ie. vimeo.com/0000000, where 0000000 is the video number) then FVE began working correctly.

I was also having this issue at https://new.americanotime.com/.

I fixed this by using the “Disable CSS?” feature (and inserting the recommended css in the wordpress Custom CSS feature per the instructions).
