Attention user: this plug-in has the BEST support!
(kindly ignore my earlier frustration-driven rant)

It worked! Thanks!!

I’ll use my own URL shortener now.

I had tried that already (and just tried it again). I have no Vimeo-related plug-ins. The only thing I can think is that somewhere in my theme something renders anything vimeo-related to be a lightbox image. And fixing that is far beyond my infantile (at-best) knowledge of code.

The odd thing though, is that when I embed a vimeon link directly into a post (as in my ‘recent work’ section) it doesn’t read it as a lightbox.

Weird.

I meant that I need to unplug, not you. Nonetheless, I apologize. The ‘worst’ was harsh and unwarranted. IT was my frustrations boiling over after trying to fix it for days.

I didn’t realize this plug-in was just one person, and I was also hoping someone in the community would reach out. After 2 months of waiting and trying everything I could, I became frustrated. Apologies.

I activated the vimeo icon and link.

You’re speaking 1n c0des. It’s time to unplug.

Ummm…yeah…thanks for the help?

All my other links work, and clearly my custom icons are showing up. I’ve tried adding my vime URL with and without the ‘http’, with and without ‘www’. I even went back to the default icons and when I click the vimeo link all I get is the image of a lightboax loading. I changed the order of my icons. I deactivated, reactivated, deactivated, and so on several times. I tried to put the URL as vimeo.com/myusername and then tried vimeo.com/myaccountnumber….

Nothing seems to work. All my other links are fine.

Does vimeo need a special URL/callout?

Users beware — this widget has the WORST support of any widget I’ve ever experienced. 2 months and no answer…

Anybody have any ideas?
