How To Use The Vimeo Element
Adding a Vimeo video to your content is straightforward using the Avada Vimeo Element. To start, add the Element to your desired page or post layout.
Now you have the options window open. The first and most crucial step is to place the Vimeo video ID into the Video ID field. This is the end section of the URL; for example, the Video ID for https://vimeo.com/75230326 is 75230326.
In the Alignment field, you can choose the alignment of the video in the column you are placing it in. The dimensions of the video are as follows. This is in pixels, but you enter a number. Vimeo videos do not force an aspect ratio; however, the most common one is 16:9. When entering the dimensions with this element, the only essential one is the width. The video will display at its native aspect ratio.
There are a couple more options you can select. One is Autoplay, which by default is set to No, as it’s generally not considered good Netiquette for videos to autoplay, and there is an option for additional API parameters. The most common of these is &rel=0, which will disable related videos after the video plays. There is also a Video Facade option to help with page speed.
